Repeating the advice Dec gave him at the NTA's, Joel said: "You’re going to go far in this business son- you’re a psychopath". The pair laughed it off before changing the subject.

Tonight's episode was a real tear-jerker as Barry McGuigan opened up to his campmates about the tragic death of his daughter Danika to bowel cancer. The ex-boxing champ revealed: "I used to go to church a lot but after my daughter... you know, not so much."

McGuigan faced the heartbreaking loss of his daughter in 2019, just five weeks after she was diagnosed with stage four bowel cancer. He recalled: "She had leukaemia, when I was making [The Boxer] with Daniel Day Lewis, three weeks from the end I had to leave because she'd been diagnosed with leukaemia, they thought she wasn't going to get better but she fought back and she won it. She had two years of chemo."

As Barry remembered his daughter, he was overcome with emotion and broke down in tears. His fellow campmates were quick to offer their support, with Danny and N-Dubz star Tulisa wrapping him in a comforting hug.

I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here! airs every night at 9PM on ITV1 and ITV X.
