Stacey Solomon has spoken for the first time since husband Joe Swash left fans baffled when he wasn’t on a cast list for the I’m A Celebrity All Stars spin off show. Viewers were left confused during Ant and Dec’s Saturday Night Takeaway when his name wasn’t mentioned when the list of stars was announced.
Former EastEnders actor Joe became King of the Jungle in 2008, seeing off competition from the likes of tennis great Martina Navratilova and Star Trek icon George Takei to triumph Down Under. Joe, whose wife Stacey Solomon is also a previous I’m A Celebrity champion, was noticeably absent from the list of contestants, as they were revealed as part of a massive surprise on this weekend’s Saturday Night Takeaway, BirminghamLive reports.
The I’m A Celebrity All Stars line-up includes Shaun Ryder, Jordan Banjo, Carol Vorderman and Helen Flanagan, with Janice Dickinson, Paul Burrell, Phil Tufnell, Amir Khan and Fatima Whitbread also announced to take part.
