I'm A Celebrity's Carol Vorderman giggles as TOWIE star asks to be one of her 'special friends'

Carol Vorderman was left in hysterics after a TOWIE star requested to be one of her "special friends". Carol, 62, will be re-entering the I'm A Celebrity camp in scenes that will air tonight, April 24, for the reality series' first ever South Africa spin-off, and recently opened up about a passionate fling she had in the country with the "first love of her life" as a 19-year-old.

The Countdown whizz, who lives in Clifton, has been very open about the male "special friends" she has, having previously been married to Christopher Mather and the dad of her two children, Patrick King. And now, it looks like she could have another special friend in the running, as she was recently informed of her celebrity admirer, The Mirror reports.

Whilst chatting to presenter Holly Jay-Smith behind the scenes at ITV, Carol was informed that Pete Wicks of TOWIE fame has been wondering whether he could join her rota of five men. "Do you know who Pete Wicks is?" Holly asked Carol, who confirmed that she knew of him.
