There are stools, chairs, barmats and towels plus a high-end karaoke machine - just like in Albert Square.

And there's also a Heineken-branded pump and a fridge so guests can enjoy booze benders when it's finished.

I'm A Celeb winner Jac showed off the epic building at the home she shares with former Towie star Dan Osborne.

She filmed it for Instagram today telling fans: "So this is how the bar is coming along - oh my giddy aunt.

"This side is the mirrored wall, I absolutely love it. It's really rustic, super modern and cool.

"Bar stools, karaoke machine - who doesn't love a karaoke machine? This wall we're going to paint black but I'm going to sort wallpaper."

She also showed the outdoor area, featuring a patio for barbecues which leads to a football pitch and large goals.

Jac, Dan and their two children Ella, six, and Mia, two, finally moved into their £1.2million Essex mansion while work on the six-bed pad continues.
