I finally feel happy in my skin

GEORGIA Toffolo says she hopes to have inspired skinproble­m sufferers to be more comfortabl­e with their looks after her I’m A Celebrity axe.

The former Made in Chelsea star, 28, revealed she had a bad acne outbreak in the camp. She said: “My skin really flared up. Part of me kept on thinking, ‘I really want my concealer’. “I’m not totally myself when I haven’t got my war paint on. But I’ve been suffering with it for 15 years and it was really important to me that

I didn’t hide behind my concealer.

“So many people struggle with it like I do. And I wanted people to see that a) that’s normal and b) that even if you’ve got every single privilege in life that I do, you can still have it. It doesn’t matter how well off you are or if you’re a celebrity.” Toff, who won the show in 2017, was evicted with Corrie star Andy Whyment.

She said of her time: “It was glorious. Every time I go into that camp I transform into this little warrior. I don’t mind smelling or the lack of food. I just find such contentmen­t.”

Toff won some early challenges and bonded with Carol Vorderman. She and Andy lost a head-to-head trial with Myleene Klass and Jordan Banjo called Gold Rush last night.

Andy, 42, was unhappy in camp, and said: “I wasn’t in the winning team, ever. I was on rice and beans so it was really tough.

“I was working my arse off. I was tired, not eating a lot. It does take it out of you. The days felt so much longer in South Africa. Plus Ant and Dec kept popping into camp to drop bombshells. I found it much tougher than Australia but still really enjoyed it.”

He said Janice Dickinson’s “constant” talking annoyed him.

Another star will leave in a head-to-head trial tonight.

■ I’m A Celebrity... South Africa continues tonight at 9pm on ITV1. Catch up on the full
