´Coleen won't back out of any challenges'

Coleen Rooney has arrived in the I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! jungle. The WAG – who has been married to footballer Wayne Rooney for 16 years – is settling in to camp life and admitted last week she was feeling “excited” for the Australian adventure.

And one person who couldn’t be more proud of Coleen is close pal Danielle Lloyd, who gushed over the TV personality during an exclusive chat with new. “Coleen is going to be amazing in the jungle, I can’t wait for people to see the real her,” said Danielle, who first met Coleen when they were just teenagers, growing up in Liverpool.

Here, Danielle reveals what mum-of-four Coleen’s biggest struggle down under will be, how she’ll get on in the show’s infamous, stomach-churning Bushtucker Trials – and why she won’t miss her home luxuries…

Danielle, are you excited to watch Coleen in the jungle?

I can’t wait! I did speak to her before she left, but, obviously, she couldn’t confirm or deny it, she just sent me a winking emoji back. So, I knew that she was going in from that. I think it’s the right time and this will be really good for her – she’s done documentaries, but now people will get the chance to see the real her.

Why do you think she decided to do I’m A Celeb this year?
