I’m A Celeb stars were taken out of camp for the night but it was never shown on screen says Coleen Rooney

Coleen Rooney, the 38 year old Scouse star who narrowly missed out on the jungle crown on I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here!, has revealed that this year’s stars spent a night outside of the camp due to extreme weather. Speaking exclusively to the Mirror, Coleen shared her highs and lows from the ITV show, including how she suffered terrible headaches after detoxing from caffeine and sugar. She admitted that the first few days in the Australian outback were “tough before it started getting better.”

However, as things improved, the weather worsened, leading to what she described as the worst weather in the show’s history. “There was one night where we all got woken up in the early hours in the morning to go into the Bush Telegraph because of a storm,” she said.

Coleen also confessed that she questioned her place on the show after just one week because she missed her family too much. She even broke down in tears after a few days when she saw the faces of her husband Wayne Rooney and their sons on her pillow, reports the Mirror.

“In that first week, I did wake up one morning and I looked at the pillow and I saw on it obviously Wayne and the kids, and I had a little cry and I thought I don’t know whether I can go all this way,” she reminisces.

However, she “soon snapped out of it” by focusing on her chores – particularly washing up. “I went off and did the washing up and collected the wood and did whatever I had to do,” she explains. “I just got on with it.”

Coleen also reveals how the initial days were challenging as she felt she wasn’t as outgoing as some of the other campmates, and too quiet.

“In the first week I just thought I can’t see me going all the way because I was just me,” the mum-of-four confesses. “We had loads of personalities in there who were great and I got on with, but they were performers and I felt like I was, at times, just sat there thinking, ‘what do I bring?’

“It wasn’t uncomfortable. They made it comfortable. It was just me sitting back and looking at that camp and thinking I was more quieter than everyone else. But obviously people enjoyed it and wanted me to stay in there longer and see a bit more of me. I don’t know why but they did.”
