I’m a Celeb: Fleur East makes filthy quip

Things got saucy in the kitchen when Fleur, 35, started helping to prepare cockles for the main dish.

“I’ve never handled cockles before,” she announced, before laughing.

“Well, it’s your lucky day!” Matt replied. “There’s a joke in there somewhere, but I’m not going to make it!”

Fleur continued laughing, adding: “Yeah, let’s not make it.”

They need do have Fleur East on every week!

On Twitter, viewers watching laughed at the double entendre. One viewer shared a meme which read ‘Naughty.’

Fleur previously starred on I’m a Celeb in 2018, where she finished in fourth place. During her season, Harry Redknapp was crowned King of the Jungle.

Since coming second to Ben Haenow on the X Factor back in 2014, Fleur has had a successful music career.

A second agreed: “Fleur East is brilliant, she deserves to be a much bigger star than she is…”

“Loved the crew groovin’ to Fleur East’s new song,” added a third.
