Carol was in the jungle in 2016

Carol Vorderman has made an I’m A Celebrity confession about the “uncomfortable” shower scenes.

TV star Carol, 61, appeared in the jungle back in 2016 for the ITV show’s sixteenth series.

However, speaking in a new interview, Carol admitted she found showering in the jungle “uncomfortable” because of the cameras.

Discussing the show with Rosie Nixon on the In A Good Place podcast, Carol said: “It’s very uncomfortable.

“I found it uncomfortable mostly because you could see three cameras. You could see where they were positioned and there was nowhere to hide.”

The former Countdown star added: “I wore swimming costumes rather than a bikini deliberately. It is a weird thing, that shower.

“They don’t do it now. It was of its time. That shows how society’s rules change.”

Carol on This Morning

Carol has been sharing her thoughts on this year’s series of I’m A Celebrity during her appearances on This Morning.

Just yesterday (November 16), Carol stunned host Holly Willoughby with a revelation about 2022 campmate Chris Moyles.

I found it uncomfortable mostly because you could see three cameras.

She revealed: “I’ve known Chris since he was eight years old. He was my little helper on radio.”

Carol explained that in the ’80s, she had a “kids request show” and she received a letter from a child at age eight saying “can I come and help you and get the music from the music library, the records”.

She said: “Chris Moyles, aged eight, used to help me every Saturday, yeah. His first time in radio.”

Holly exclaimed: “No way! That’s really cute.”

Meanwhile, during the segment on the daytime show, Carol spoke about controversial campmate Matt Hancock.

The former health secretary has certainly divided opinion since arriving in the jungle earlier this month.

He’s managed to win over many viewers with his antics in camp. However, TV watchdog Ofcom recently confirmed it received thousands of complaints objecting to his appearance Down Under.

It suggests Matt is somewhat a heartthrob in the Aussie jungle.
