Each year on the show, two more celebrities are added to the Australian jungle to join and experience everything like the original campmates. As ever, lots of celebrities were rumoured to be joining the show and one of those was Maura Higgins. It was rumoured that she would be one of the latecomers and now she’s revealed that the rumours are true, reports The newspaper said she is hoping to impress as she enters the jungle.
It reports that she said: “I just don't want to let people down, because everyone's been DMing me, saying 'Oh my God, I hope you're doing the show.’” Adding: “I don't want to back out of the trials and be the biggest wimp in the camp.” On telling her Mum she had signed up for the ITV show, she said: “She nearly died.
She went: 'Maura, how are you going to do that?’ She is baffled as I'm more of an indoor girl...
I like my hotels. I've never slept outside.” Sleeping outside and taking part in Bushtucker Trials could be a problem for Maura.
She said: “If spiders go over the top of my head, I might just die.” “I'm not a nervous person at all. I don't get anxiety.
But for this show, when I think about it, I'm like, 'Oh God'”. Maura appeared on Love Island five years ago and while some things have changed, she said she still has “a potty mouth”. “It's been five years and I think I've matured, but I still have a potty mouth,” she said.
“I'm still the same kind of girl but I'm not going to go in and annihilate anyone. However, if someone gets on my nerves, I'm not really one to hold it in. “I do speak my mind.
If someone patronized me, I get really irritated. Like, that's one thing that really drives me mad.” According to The Mirror, Maura is looking forward to speaking to in the jungle about the recent court case she was involved in, dubbed Wagatha Christie.
She said: “I want to talk to her about that...
I'm a bit nosy like that.” Referring to what Coleen did ahead of the trial, she added: “I would do the exact same and put up something on my story and just have certain people view it to catch that person out. That is the way my brain would work”.
She hopes viewers will see “that I can be quite soft...
I'm not just this hardcore girl, 24/7.” She said: “I do have a big heart, so I hope they see that.” Maura is rumoured to arrive on I'm A Celebrity alongside Rev Richard Coles.
The latest series of I’m A Celebrity has a wide range of popular stars including McFly’s Danny Jones, Tulisa Contostavlos, Melvin Odoom, Oti Mabuse and Barry McGuigan to name a few..
