Charlene White has had her 'secret signal' for I'm A Celebrity exposed by her Loose Women co-stars, before she even sets foot in the jungle.
After lots of speculation linking her with the new series of the ITV show, the Loose Women host's name appeared on the I'm A Celebrity line-up when it was officially confirmed by ITV on Monday night. The ITN news reader will join the likes of Boy George and Mike Tindall in the Australian jungle, with Matt Hancock now tipped as a late arrival.
Loose Women arrived on air not longer after Phillip Schofield halted This Morning to break news of Hancock's apparent involvement in I'm A Celebrity, with a video of Charlene appearing on screen, as she announced she was heading to catch a flight Down Under from Heathrow.

The Loose Women panel, headed up by presenter Christine Lampard, discussed how they thought Charlene would fair on the show and it was then that talked turned to the signal she will use to communicate with people back home, to let them know she's doing alright. The use of gestures from celeb campmates to send messages to their loved ones isn't something new on the ITV show, with the likes of Giovanna Fletcher, Vernon Kay and Frankie Bridge all caught out using signals in the last few series.
And the cat has already been let out the bag on Charlene's, with still a few days to go before the new series of I'm A Celebrity starts. Explaining all, Christine said: "Apparently, this it to let us know and her family know that she's doing OK. She's going to be rubbing her ear whilst doing this..." as the host put her hand across her stomach, adding: "So it looks like an L."
Christine added: "So when she's not doing this, we know she's in trouble," as Janet quipped: "I wonder what Matt Hancock is going to do?!"
