“You have to be a certain kind of person, it’s hell there, it’s terrible.”

She talked about the bush tucker trials and the camp conditions and continued, “The trials are very, very difficult. You feel dirty, you can’t shower.

‘I also feel that it is sometimes intense to be filmed 24/7.

‘I did one trial and I thought, ‘I’d rather give birth now!’ I’m a wimp by nature, I’m afraid of heights, spiders, snakes.’

The actress’s time in the jungle meant she was away from her three children who she shares with ex-fiancé Scott Sinclair, but credits him and their mothers for looking after the kids.

She explained, “I was away from the kids for a month. Scott, my mother, his mother, took care of the girls. Scott’s mom was great.’

She said: ‘It will be different. I was only 22 at the time and I am now 32. I have grown a lot and have had three children and three births!

“I will not finish the trials because my mentality will be very different this time.

“When I went into the jungle the first time, I didn’t prepare at all. I had no idea what I had let myself in for and I even cried when my phone was taken from me after I landed in Australia.

“I’m just going to be brave and keep going. I want to make my children proud if I participate this time.’

She did admit, however, that she’s “not a jungle warrior” and still has a fear of heights, but she’s excited to be reunited with ITV hosts Ant and Dec.

She continued, “I’m not saying I’m going to go in and become a jungle warrior and be absolutely awesome, because I’m not.

“Yes, I’ll be scared, but I’ll try and I’ll be a lot better than last time. When I see Ant & Dec in the South African jungle I joke I’m not going to do the Trials!

‘It will also be really nice to see Ant & Dec in a funny way again!’
