I'm A Celebrity legend Myleene Klass says daughter was concerned after finding 'love letter' from co-star

I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here's first-ever 'legend' campmate Myleene Klass has revealed how one of her daughters was left a little concerned when she found a 'love letter' from her co-star.

The singer and talented musician-turned-presenter appeared on This Morning on Monday (May 15) to chat about winning the ITV reality show's spin-off series, I'm A Celebrity... South Africa. Myleene showed she wasn't messing around in scenes aired in the final of the programme on Friday (May 12).

The pre-recorded series, still hosted by Ant McPartlin and Dec Donnely, saw a bunch of previously seen campmates whisked off to the new setting of Kruger National Park, as opposed to the usual jungle location in Australia. But with no public vote, they will be competing against each other in a battle to be crowned winner of the 'All Star' series and granted 'legend' status.

Over the weeks, the likes of Shaun Ryder, Andy Whyment, Joe Swash, Dean Gaffney, Georgia 'Toff' Toffollo, Amir Khan and Helen Flanagan have all come and gone from camp after failing to win their elimination challenges. And it was Myleene, Phill Tuffnell, Jordan Banjo and Fatima Whitbread who made it to the final four.

The final episode saw the former campmates decide who was next to leave before being left with the final three - which ended up being former cricketer Phil. Myleene, Diversity star Jordan and former Olympian Fatima, then faced a trial that relied on them being able to count to six minutes while enduring being covered in critters. They had to sit in a contraption that has their feet in boxes, their hands in hell holes and their heads in helmets.

Jordan won, followed by Myleene while Fatima lost out by quite a few minutes. Then the final two celebrities - Myleene and Jordan - then took on the last trial that separated them and legend status - the infamous eating trial. They were both presented with the same dish and had to write down how many they think they could eat of each thing, such as mice tails.

The person with the highest number then had to eat that amount within five minutes to win the point. And it was former Hear'Say star Myleene who emerged victorious and was given the crown.

Speaking about the "brutal" final challenge on This Morning, Myleene shared with Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield how she broke her braces after getting a bit of mice tail stuck behind one. She said: "Ant and Dec kept asking me what it tasted like. A mouse died behind a radiator when I was at school and the smell that came from that, it tasted a bit like that."

Since leaving South Africa, Myleene revealed that she has kept in touch with a lot of her campmates, saying their is a WhatsApp group including supermodel Janice Dickinson and also share how she gets postcards from Paul Burrell. And it's the latter that caused some concern at home.

Holly asked: "Your daughter got a little bit worried when she found a note from Paul Burrell" as Myleene burst into laughter. She confessed "Yes, so Paul, bless him, he likes to send me postcards from wherever he is in the world and they've been coming through quite thick and fast recently.

"And my daughter just came up to me and she said, 'Who's Paul?' and I looked at this letter and it was just filled with, 'I love you, I miss you, I can't wait to be with you'. And I'm like, 'Oh my God, it's Paul Burrell, it's fine!'"
