ITV I'm a Celeb's Owen Warner on eating mission to put weight back on as he reveals how much he lost in the jungle

After a diet of rice and beans in the I'm a Celebrity jungle, Hollyoaks star Owen Warner is happily eating his way through his favourite dishes. The 23-year-old heartthrob, who plays Romeo Nightingale in the Channel Four soap, was known for his food talk in the jungle, even dreaming one night that he went to Nando's with campmate Mike Tindall.

Owen was so hungry, he told hosts Ant and Dec that a fermented egg in his gruesome eating trial was 'decent.' He followed his eating challenge with a reward meal of calamari to start, followed by a quadruple cheeseburger with various cheeses and bacon on top, a pizza-sized cookie dough and American-style pancakes with syrup.

And now he's out he's making up for lost meals by chomping on more food to regain the weight he lost during his three week stint on on I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here. The actor, who came in second place after Queen of the Jungle Lioness Jill Scott, lost 8lbs in the jungle.
