Gemma Collins reveals staggering amount she was paid for appearing on I'm A Celeb - and the real reason she quit


Towie's Gemma was widely characterised as having quit the jungle because she was hungry. But in an emotional new interview she revealed there was deep trauma connected to her time on the show because of a shocking event the night before.

Gemma Collins has opened up about the staggering fee she received for appearing on I'm A Celeb and said she suffered a harrowing ordeal the day before flying to Australia. Gemma appeared on the 14th series of I'm A Celeb along with actress Melanie Sykes, former MP Edwina Currie, rapper Tinchy Stryder and the footballer Jimmy Bullard. That year saw superbike racer Carl 'Foggy' Fogarty crowned King of the Jungle, beating X Factor star Jake Quickenden into the runner-up spot.
