This Morning star Josie Gibson has a warning for her I’m A Celebrity...Get Me Out Of Here! co-stars.

Speaking via a video link to the ITV morning show on Thursday, 16th November, the daytime TV host opened up about whether she thinks she’ll get along with her fellow campmates on the programme.

“I love people so I'm alright about sharing a camp with loads of other celebrities,” she said confidently. 

However, she then added: “If somebody has got a big ego that would rub me up the wrong way. I can't stand people that are too selfish. You've gotta care more!”

On the topic of taking on the sometimes terrifying reality TV challenge, Josie said: “I am quite known for taking on a challenge on This Morning... I don't like to say 'no', but I think I might have gone a bit too far with this one."

Josie is one of ten stars who may also be regretting their decision to take part in the show this year.

They include actress, singer and sister of Britney Spears Jamie-Lynn Spears, ex-politician Nigel Farage and presenter Fred Sirieix.

Also starring will be TV star Sam Thompson, YouTuber Nella Rose, EastEnders star Danielle Harold, food critic Grace Dent, pop star and TV host Marvin Humes, and Hollyoaks’ Nick Pickard.

Speaking earlier about taking on the show, Josie said: “I am dreading the insects and it’s my biggest phobia. I also don’t like spiders and I freeze normally when I see one.

“My family thinks I am mad doing the programme too as they know what I’m like with creepy crawlies!” she added.

I'm A Celebrity starts Sunday 19th November, 9pm on ITV1 and ITVX.
