However, after landing in Australia, Scarlette told the Mirror's I'm A Celebrity correspondent Mark Jefferies that she was "looking for love."

She said: "I am looking for love potentially, haha. I just like a good honest and trustworthy man, that's it. But I did hear there might be a man in the jungle with a good set of muscles.

"So, if I head to the jungle I would like to see a muscly guy. I am looking for a Tarzan out there."

What has Scarlette said about joining I'm A Celebrity?

In an interview, prior to entering the jungle, Scarlette explained how people have told her she wouldn’t succeed in life. She said: “If I were crowned Queen of the jungle, it would be such a big moment for me.

“I think I would lose it! I have always worked hard but for whatever reason some people have doubted me. And so, if I were to win this show, it would be for everyone who questioned me, tried to break me, or put me down.

"I don’t know why they do but I kee showing that I can make it and be better than anyone imagined. It’s so exciting to be part of this series and I was in shock when I got the call from ITV.

"This programme is always something I have wanted to do as I like to test myself. It’s the cherry on the icing on the cake.”
