Jacqueline Jossa hates all insects and wonders if I'm a Celeb is a huge mistake

Jacqueline Jossa 's I'm a Celebrity experience is gearing up to be a tough one.

The former EastEnders actress has released a video interview ahead of her appearance on the ITV show, stating this Sunday.

In the video, Jacqueline, 27, explains who she is and that she is best known for playing Lauren Branning on EastEnders.

"Working on EastEnders was hard but it was in my comfort zone, it was where I came alive, I absolutely loved it", she said.

"This is like, completely different."

She makes the terrible mistake of listing her fears (the producers are watching, Jacqueline!)

"I don't like heights, don't like spiders.

"Not the best swimmer."

Scratching her head, she adds: I don't really know why I'm doing the jungle actually..." she trails off, laughing.

"Any time to... Can I get out still?", she jokes.

She continues: "No bungee jumping. Never."

Glaring at the camera, she reiterates: "Never. Ever!"

She then goes on to say that if she saw a spider in the house she would scream because she "just doesn't like creatures".

This should be interesting, as poor Jacqueline will be getting up close and personal with lots of different creatures including spiders, snakes, and cockroaches.

The actress is married to former TOWIE star Dan Osborne , and they share two daughters Ella, four, and Mia, one.

Their marriage was on the rocks for much of the early part of this year after Dan was pictured with other women, but Jacqueline has insisted she isn't a "doormat" and she hopes her upcoming appearance on I'm A Celebrity will show she is "fine".

She said: “I think people think I am a pushover or a doormat.

“I also think some people pity me.

"I want to show I am fine, I am up for a laugh and that I will go for it and try my best.”

Jacqueline will be joining campmates including Caitlyn Jenner, Roman Kemp, Nadine Coyle and Ian Wright as they battle terrifying Bushtucker Trials to win food to supplement their measly diet of rice and beans.

They will compete to become the next King or Queen of the Jungle, succeeding last year's winner Harry Redknapp.
