Jamie Redknapp wouldn’t be able to ‘pull’ Emily Atack says King Harry

Harry Redknapp joked his son Jamie wouldn’t be able to win over Emily Atack after he saw her “scrubbed up” for the first time since leaving the jungle.

The Inbetweeners actress, 28, made several plays for the retired footballer, 45, during her time on I’m A Celebrity, telling jungle king Harry she would make a “really good daughter in law”.

Atack made another bid for Jamie as she celebrated with Harry at the wrap party after Sunday night’s final.

In scenes to air on tonight’s Coming Out show, Harry said: “All you girls, how you’ve scrubbed up! I don’t even recognise you.”

Atack asked: “Do you think Jamie will go out with me now?”

Harry replied: “I don’t think he could pull you, I’ll be honest with you!”

Despite his father’s lack of faith in his ability to “pull,” Jamie recently hinted he isn’t looking for love with Atack after he was grilled on what he thinks is more likely: Liverpool winning the Champions League or him taking Atack on a date.

“What’s more likely did you say? Ah Deano come on. Leave it out,” he told Dean Saunders on talkSPORT’s Alan Brazil Breakfast show.

“Listen, she’s a very nice girl isn’t she. Let’s leave it at that.”

Atack finished I’m A Celeb in second place to Harry who became the new King of the jungle.

Jamie posted a video of himself watching his father’s crowning moment with his two sons Charlie, 14, and Beau, 10.
