Who is Frankie Bridge? I'm a Celebrity 2021 star and Loose Women panelist

Her husband braved the I'm A Celebrity jungle just a few years ago and now it's Frankie Bridge's turn - to tackle the chilly Castle Gwrych.

However, Frankie has insisted that she is determined to tackle her fears by appearing on the show.

“I’m scared of most things, but I want to push myself and show a side people have not seen before.

"I think people will be surprised to see me doing I’m A Celebrity and I am scared of most things, but I really want to push myself."

Any specific phobias?

“I’m scared of rats, I am a fussy eater and I have a bit of a phobia of ketchup, so a pint of penis terrifies me! Any of the eating challenges will be my idea of hell.

"I also hate spiders in my own home, being trapped in small spaces is a big thing for me and pretty much all of that is likely to happen which makes me go, ‘Why the hell are you doing it?’ And so that is exactly why I am doing it!”

What does Wayne say about Frankie taking part?

“Ever since Wayne took part, he has been desperate for me to do it too and he can’t wait to watch me squirm and scream!

"My kids are still quite young, and they still think I am quite cool – so there is a very small window for them to watch it and not be embarrassed! I feel now is the time. I love the show so much too.”

Any advice he's given her?

“Because I am not in the jungle and in the Castle, it is hard to say what it is going to be like for me,” she replies. “But his main bit of advice is to be myself, not over think things and have fun.”
