I'm A Celebrity star Caitlyn Jenner's rumoured girlfriend Sophia Hutchins has found watching her on the show "tough" and "gut-wrenching".
Caitlyn broke down on the jungle series in the first episode, unsure if she had made the right decision doing the show.
Now, speaking on Lorraine on Wednesday, Sophia has confessed she and Caitlyn's close pals were left "freaked out" when they saw the scenes.
Confessing it was out of character to see her so emotional, the model revealed it worried her and she almost headed to Australia to check she was okay.
She told Lorraine Kelly: "It hasn’t been easy to watch at all.
"When someone is across the globe, you kind of feel helpless to begin with and when you throw in all of these challenges and you see her crying it’s just been gut-wrenching to watch."
She added: "I’m watching it with all of you. The producers of the show take away everyone’s phones and we don’t have any way of communication which is really interesting and difficult to deal with. It’s pretty tough and hard to watch.
“I want to call the producers and say no more snakes and no more bugs!
"But we knew what she was signing up for. They reached out early this year and Caitlyn had done it before back in 2003 I think, early 2000s, so she felt like she kind of knew what she was signing up for.
"So, I just kind of went with it. But I think the British version of this show is a lot harder than the US version. At least a lot more challenging for Caitlyn, maybe it’s because it’s been 15 years but I think there are just more challenges to it.”
Speaking of the moment Caitlyn cried on the show, Sophia shared her concern for her admitting she didn't recognise that side if her.
She said: "When I saw her crying the first night, I was just in shock.
"Everyone that knows her who I’ve spoken with was sending me these messages saying, ‘Is she ok, this isn’t the Caitlyn we know?’.
"The Caitlyn we know is super excited, super positive, super energetic, rarely sheds a tear. So we were all freaked out by that.”
Lorraine airs weekdays at 8:30am on ITV.
