She stole our hearts – and had us in fits of laughter – on I’m A Celeb in 2018 with her girl-next-door personality and knack for slapstick comedy, so we’re not surprised Emily Atack has been roped in as a team captain alongside Laura Whitmore on the latest series of Celebrity Juice.

Since finishing as runner-up in the jungle, Emily, 30, has been busy presenting ITV2 dating show Singletown, had her own range with top fashion retailer In The Style and has reached almost two million followers on Instagram.

So the show’s host, Keith Lemon, was understandably keen to get the former Inbetweeners actress on board with Laura to replace Celeb Juice legends Fearne Cotton and Holly Willoughby.

And Emily is more than thrilled to be taking on the hilarious challenges and going up against Laura’s team every week, revealing she’s happy being a “silly arse” for the cameras!

Here, the star reveals why she won’t compare herself to her predecessors and the unusual gift she bought herself after landing the job…

So Emily, how did filming for your first show go?
