Steph McGovern reveals she had to turn down I'm A Celebrity due to secret health problem

Steph McGovern has revealed she was asked by ITV bosses to be part of I'm A Celebrity, but had to turn it down due to a secret health problem.

The television host, 40, says she has been asked multiple times to join the hit show but has had to pass it by because she has Irritable Bowel Syndrome.

Steph says the jungle diet - mainly consisting of rice and beans - would wreak havoc on her body, due to the digestive condition which causes symptoms like diarrhoea, painful cramps and bloating.
