Who is Barry McGuigan’s son? Inside life of Maura Higgins’ ex Shane McGuigan


The boxing trainer is the son of Maura Higgins' fellow I'm A Celebrity campmate, Barry McGuigan, but what else is there to know about the Love Islander's former flame?

I'm A Celebrity viewers saw the arrival of two new campmates in Thursday night's episode (November 21), with Love Islander Maura Higgins and priest Richard Coles set to disrupt the peace and harmony in the camp. Given Maura was based in Ireland and Shane was running his boxing gym in London at the time, the pair's relationship ultimately fizzled out due to the challenges of long-distance, according to an insider. I'm A Celebrity viewers hoping for a tense reunion between Maura and Shane's dad may be left disappointed as the Love Island star confessed that she had never met her ex's father.
