"I just hope that it’s not going to be too disastrous weather wise," he added, before going on to speak about his time in the jungle 13 years ago.

"Having said that when we were in Australia, the weather was terrible at times.
"We had torrential rainstorms, but somehow rainstorms in a hot country was slightly different to a bitterly cold country like ours."
On Friday, The Sun exclusively revealed that I'm A Celeb would be remaining in the UK due to the coronavirus pandemic.
