Beverley left the castle on Monday night

I’m A Celebrity star Beverley Callard admits she “wanted to die” when she found out the show had shown her calling her husband a “Megashag”.

The former Coronation Street star was voted off the show last night alongside fellow campmate Victoria Derbyshire.

However, Beverley looked horrified when hosts Ant and Dec asked her about her husband Jon McEwan’s saucy nickname.

“I just thought they were quite bad words so they’ll edit that, when Ant and Dec played the clip for me last night I wanted to die.

“I wanted to die.”

Laughing, Lorraine told her: “It was funny, it was a laugh – as he said himself, it could have been a lot worse.”

During her eviction interview last night, Beverley looked embarrassed after watching the clip of her revealing Jon’s nickname.

Ant said: “You had your head in your hands when you saw yourself talking about Jon the Megashag there.”

Smiling, Beverley said: “My mum-in-law is going to kill me!”

Dec joked: “I think Jon will be having words with you as well.”

I just thought they were quite bad words so they’ll edit that.

Viewers expressed their amusement over Bev’s nickname for her husband.

One person said on Twitter: “Bet Bev’s husband loving life right now #megashag. I love fact that its actually trending on here.”
