The lastest I’m A Celebrity evictee, John Burton Race, has confirmed rumours that Marc and Cerys did sneak off to the camps medical hut for a bit of a romp.

“There were times the pair disappeared off together,” the chef said, cryptically adding “I know what I know. There were things the viewers wouldn’t have seen or heard in there.” John went on to say “Relationships are formed. And if you want to talk privately, you put your hand over your mic.”

John Burton Race has been inadvertently in training for I’m A Celebrity for many years. From an early age he was drawn towards daredevil stunts including jumping off a high diving board at an Olympic sized swimming pool, and has eaten a scorpion in one go.
But despite his taste for adventure, there are aspects of the jungle which he’s not looking forward to such as eating al fresco and sleeping on a hard bunk without the luxury of linen sheets and a big, comfy bed.

John says: “When I was a little boy living in Thailand I used to keep snakes so I’m not frightened of snakes. Spiders I’m alright with, so long as they’re not identifiable black widow ones or tarantulas because they’re hairy, they’re big and they hurt.
“I don’t like scorpions but that’s because when I was a little boy I was stung by one. And when I was very little, according to my mother, I ate one. It tried to bite me and I bashed it and then ate it. I think I was only four or five.

Of his adventures as a child he says: “When I was kid I was living in Thailand, I kept looking at this diving board and it was Olympic size, one of those concrete ones not a springboard, a proper plinth, and I‘ll always remember I kept looking up thinking ‘God I’d like to go up there,’ and my mother said ‘don’t you even think about going up there John’.
