Gillian McKeith on her jungle stint
JULIE ANN TRAINOR
'left feeling terrorised!'

A legend in the jungle – with viewers, at least – I’m A Celebrity… South Africa’s Gillian McKeith, 63, is known for being one of the show’s most divisive, drama-prone celebs.

During the current series, we’ve seen her rub her fellow stars up the wrong way with her sneaky stash of contraband – and who could forget her infamous ‘fainting’ episode back in 2010.

Whatever your views on “Jungle Gill”, her quirky habits make for great-telly. Her awkward reunion with former nemesis Shaun Ryder, 60, was hilarious to watch, with the Happy Mondays singer telling his fellow campmates, “Last time I wanted to kill her.”

Here, in our exclusive interview, which took place after she’d secretly filmed the ITV1 show, the nutritionist tells us her debilitating spider phobia is showing no signs of going away…

Hi, Gillian. You didn’t seem to enjoy your first experience on I’m A Celeb. Why did you decide to do it?
