Jill Scott had a polite request for her I'm A Celebrity co-star Chris Moyles as she reunited with him for the first time since they both arrived back in the UK from doing the ITV show

It's still been less than two weeks since Sunderland born football star Jill became I'm A Celebrity's latest Queen of the Jungle, beating runner up Owen Warner in the final on Sunday, November 27, with Matt Hancock in third. Since then, things have been a bit of a whirlwind for the England Lionesses hero. After joining her fellow campmates for the show's wrap party in Australia, the 35-year-old jetted back home to be flung into a busy schedule of interviews and appearances, before finally being able to grab some down time to head back to Wearside and be reunited with family at the weekend.

Sunderland was right behind Jill as she went for the jungle crown. with motorway signs spurring her onto victory and Stack in Seaburn hosting a massive viewing party for the final, which was attended by some of Jill's relatives. And, Jill got to see many of them as she returned home for a flying visit.

After that it was back to the grind for the ex Manchester City player as she joined another I'm A Celebrity star, Charlene White, on Loose Women, before then talking to the airwaves for a series of radio interviews.

One of those was with former Radio 1 Breakfast presenter Chris on his Radio X show. And, as she prepared to be grilled live on air, Jill made a plea to Chris on Instagram, writing: "Please be nice to me." Fortunately for Jill,. Chris heeded her request and the two delighted listeners with their on-air chat, even heading out for food together after they were done.

Radio X tweeted about Jill's visit. Above a photo of her and Chris, the caption read: "It’s only the EURO’s winner, national treasure AND queen of the jungle @JillScottJS8." And, then sharing it on on her timeline, Jill wrote: "Thanks so much for having me! Love this guy @ChrisMoyles."

Jill hasn't been the only member of the I'm a Celebrity class of 2022 to head into the Radio X studio with Chris. On his first day back at work earlier this week, Chris was joined by comedian and ex Strictly star Seann Walsh.
