Fellow I’m A Celeb star brands Carol Vorderman a PRINCESS!

Viewers are warned to expect a meltdown from the presenter

| Updated:

Vicky Pattison has said Carol Vorderman is a bit of a “princess” and that she is “really worried” about her going into the I’m A Celebrity jungle.

The reigning jungle queen, who will host companion programme I’m A Celebrity: Extra Camp, also described TV star Carol as “very particular” and hinted that she may be headed for a “meltdown”.

Carol, 55, is one of 11 stars going into the Australian camp for the ITV reality show, which begins on Sunday night.

Vicky said: “I’m really worried about her. We had her on (dating game show) It’s Not Me, It’s You and she was saying how she liked her life the way she liked it – she seemed very particular.

“She lives with her mum and her mum looks after her. I thought she’s a princess on a panel show – what will she be like in the jungle?”

Vicky added, according to the Daily Mirror: “I think she’ll really, really struggle and I think we’ll see a meltdown if she goes in. It would be great TV.”

However, last year’s jungle champ does have high hopes for Carol’s sex appeal, as she added that the “sexy lady” will be “brilliant in the shower”.

Carol has previously admitted that she is up for a challenge and ready to be pushed out of her “comfort zone” and that she is looking forward to jumping out of the helicopter and into camp.

Who’s entering the jungle this Sunday? Bookies William Hill have shared their odds on the favourite to win.

Scarlett Moffatt

Odds 6/4

The Gogglebox star has the strongest ever odds to become the Queen of the Jungle – before even entering, with 34% of all bets to win this year. Wow. Let’s hope she likes bugs and animal ghoulies.

Sam Quek

Odds: 6/1

Gorgeous Sam won gold at the Rio 2016 games for Team GB with her hockey teammates.

Joel Dommet

Odds: 8/1

You’ll probably recognise the face but probably not the name. He was in the TV show Skins and recent flick White Island with Darren Day, but he is best known as a comedian who’s appeared on many TV panel shows, including Bring The Noise alongside Nicole Scherzinger.

Adam Thomas

Odds: 9/1

Super-cute star of Emmerdale and brother of Love Island’s Scott and Corrie’s Ryan Thomas.

He’s been buffing up over the summer so expect him to be showcasing that marvellous physique of his.

Larry Lamb

Odds: 9/1

You all know this silver fox, from EastEnders, Gavin and Stacey and – for the older readers amongst you – Triangle.

He might be pushing 70 but he’s still a dashing so and so and is father to the just-as-hot but currently AWOL radio DJ George Lamb.

Carol Vorderman

Odds: 10/1

At 55, our Caz can show the younger girls a thing or two about being svelte, classy and sexy – and we reckon she’ll be pushing those young’uns out of the that waterfall so she can give herself a good wash for the cameras!

Jordan Banjo

Odds: 14/1

Brother of Diversity leader Ashley, best known for dancing, doing back-flips and dumping Jesy Nelson from Little Mix because – reportedly – he couldn’t deal with the level of fame she had!

Ola Jordan

Odds: 14/1

With her stunning looks, curvy physique and tantalising European accent, she’s likely to be the one to get dirty old men into a right old two-and-eight when she’s giving herself a good scrub down in that shower!

Martin Roberts

Odds: 16/1

Housewives will love this cute and cuddly property presenter of Homes Under The Hammer, which he has presented for 13 years. Unlikely to surprise us with a six-pack, though.

Lisa Snowdon

Odds: 20/1

Yes, folks, there is more to Lisa Snowdon than going out with George Clooney, who she started dating for five years in 2000. That was SIXTEEN YEARS AGO and we bet she’s bored to death about being asked about that! She’s a successful TV presenter, radio host, model and pretty cool dancer (she came third on Strictly in 2008). So come on guys, enough of George, right?

Wayne Bridge

Odds: 20/1

Perhaps not in the same looks league as a David Beckham, but Wayne was dashing enough to woo and marry Frankie from the Saturdays and S Club Juniors.
