I’m a Celebrity’s Ruthie Henshall persuades Jordan North to give her a steamy massage

I’m A Celebrity...Get Me Out Of Here! star Ruthie Henshall managed to persuade her campmate Jordan North to massage her feet during a secret task on Thursday.

Actress Ruthie, 53, was given the mission of getting Radio 1 presenter Jordan, 30, to give her a massage in order to win prizes for the camp.

Ruthie was in the courtyard washing clothes when suddenly the Jester portrait started talking to her with its eyes moving.

The Jester said he had some "secret pranks" for her to do throughout the day for his amusement, and if she completed them all correctly, she would win all the celebrities luxury items.

The Jester told Ruthie her first prank was to get Jordan to massage her bare foot but reminded her "be warned, if the other celebrities smell a rat it’s game over".

Ruthie said in the Telegraph: "I couldn’t believe my luck, just after the Jester spoke to me in walked Vernon and Jordan so I thought I’m just going to go for it."

Ruthie asked Jordan if he had strong hands and if he could massage her foot because it felt locked.

Kind-hearted Jordan massaged Ruthie's foot for her and immediately afterwards washed his hands with sanitizer.

Ruthie admitted at the start of the show she was already struggling after a terrible night's sleep.

"My first night’s sleep was absolutely dreadful," she told her campmate Victoria Derbyshire.

Russell Watson, who joined the same night Ruthie did, also said his first night's sleep was horrendous.

He said in the Telegraph: "I didn’t sleep very well at all but it was lovely to wake up with the other celebrities."

* I'm A Celebrity...Get Me Out Of Here! returns tomorrow night at 9pm on ITV.
