Carol Vorderman says she’s ‘allergic to wedding rings’ as she asks fans for help

I'm A Celebrity... South Africa and former Countdown star Carol Vorderman has appealed to fans asking for their help over what sentimental possession she should sent up into space as she reveals a close friend, who is the Chief Astronaut for Axiom Space, is making a trip to the International Space Station.

Taking to Instagram to ask her followers for ideas over what she should take up to space - joining a picture of her in a bikini placed in the ISS "with earth behind" - the 62-year-old Welsh media personality, who came fifth on this year's 20th anniversary special of I'm A Celeb, wrote alongside a picture of said bikini shot: "In 2010 a friend of mine from NASA was so kind on his trip to the International Space Station and took up a few trinkets for my family including this photo of me.

"He took a photo of the photo in the ISS with earth behind and I treasure it. It means 'I've sunbathed in space'. Ha. Cut to 2023 and a beloved astronaut friend of mine (formerly NASA and legendary) is now the Chief Astronaut for Axiom Space.
