I'm A Celebrity winner Giovanna Fletcher throws support behind Frankie Bridge

I'm A Celebrity winner Giovanna Fletcher has thrown her support behind Frankie Bridge to become the new Queen of the Castle.

The 36-year-old author and actress is hoping that her close friend will triumph on Sunday night when the live final airs.

Giovanna has been busy posting her thoughts about the final on social media as she reminisced about this time last year when Ant and Dec announced that she had won.

Sharing a pic of singer Frankie with Emmerdale star Danny Miller as they tackle celebrity cyclone at Gwrych Castle, Giovanna wrote: "My Hero, my Queen. Voting is open and I know how much it would mean to this woman to receive your love and support @FrankieBridge."

Giovanna then went on to recall how she felt being in the final and how she made lifelong friends from being in the show last year.

Speaking during a break in rehearsals for 2:22 A Ghost Story at The Gielgud Theatre, Giovanna told her followers on Instagram in a video: "It’s so weird to think this time last year we were there like knowing what that last date is like and how strange it is and three amazing finalists. It’s very, very exciting.

"Obviously Frank’s a mate so I am completely biased because like you most things you watch these things when you know someone in it and you just fall utterly in love with them."

She continued: "More so than you ever have before just because of the pride I think that it stirs up so I shall have finished the show by then and I’ll be watching it in the car and I cannot wait to see.

"The last three weeks have conjured up so many great memories of all the friendships that were made last year of the epic people that I was fortunate enough to spend three weeks with and become lifelong friends with."

Giovanna concluded by saying the things that made her proud: "Of doing celebrity cyclone, of being the last woman standing, of being crowned bloody queen.

"Bonkers, absolutely bonkers.

"I’m still speechless a year on so I just love thinking about those three in the castle right now and how they’re going to be feeling. Special times."
