What did I’m A Celebrity star Naughty Boy say about his mum?

“I kept thinking more about her missing me and that combined with getting used to the Clink that might have thrown me a bit,” he admitted.

“But I think that experience made me, it shaped us differently and prepared us differently for what was to come.”

Naughty Boy also admitted that his mum thought she was on FaceTime to her son when she saw him on the TV.

“She’d start talking to me. That’s so cute,” he said.

When will Naughty Boy reunite with his mum?

It seems the music producer is planning on seeing his mum later today.

Early this morning he was still in North Wales after exiting the jungle last night.
