Roman Kemp’s mum Shirlie jokes I’m A Celeb stars ‘better watch out’ as Myles Stephenson bromance blossoms

Shirlie Kemp has warned the I’m A Celebrity…Get Me Out of Here! contestants to “watch out” for her son Roman and his fellow contestant Myles Stephenson.

The duo were paired together for the plank challenge in Sunday night's opening episode and wasted no time in completing the task incredibly quickly.

Roman and Myles, who is a member of the band Rak-su, completed the walk in 1 minute and 45 seconds, and were subsequently named a "power pair" and given nicer camping quarters as a reward.

Speaking during Monday's Capital Breakfast show, Shirlie said: “I think Myles was good for him [Roman]. He was a good kind of team mate for him as well.

“He [Roman] made it look like nothing. I think with boys they have that kind of bravado where it’s like well Myles is doing it so I’ll do it.”

She added: “I really like Myles and I think they’re quite a challenge, those two together. I think people better watch out.”

During the launch episode, Caitlyn Jenner was praised for calming former Girls Aloud member Nadine Coyle ahead of their skydive.

Nadine, 34, was seen breaking down in tears ahead of her jump but Jenner consoled her, saying: “It’ll be the greatest experience of your life, when it’s over you’ll say it was great."

“That was amazing,” she said upon landing.

During the show, viewers voted for Caitlyn and Good Morning Britain presenter Kate Garraway to participate in the first Bushtucker trial of the series, which will air tonight (Monday November 18).

Tune into Capital Breakfast with Roman Kemp, weekdays from 6am – 10am, with Rob Howard.
