Jacqueline’s win has been bittersweet, though.

It’s absolutely amazing to be queen of the jungle, but to be back with my family is even better.

However, she said she was thrilled to be back with her family – and even said the feeling of being reunited beat being crowned queen of the jungle.

Jacqueline told The Mirror: “It’s absolutely amazing to be queen of the jungle, but to be back with my family is even better.”

Dan and Jac – who married in 2017 – are now said to have plans to renew their vows following her return from Australia.
