ITV I'm A Celeb's Maura Higgins snaps at Barry McGuigan as he reveals what she's done since exit

1 month ago 207

Maura Higgins lightheartedly scolded her campmate Barry McGuigan after he let slip about her post-jungle antics upon leaving I'm A Celebrity.

The ex-Love Island personality, 34, along with the 63-year-old boxing legend were both sent packing from the jungle earlier in the week, a departure that had Maura promising to indulge in some red wine freedom.

Following their exit, the duo turned up on the spin-off show, Unpacked, dishing about their time on the hit jungle series. 

However, Barry couldn't resist teasing about Maura's first night of freedom, highlighting how she celebrated. The famed Irish sportsman commented: "It's fascinating being on this side, we just stuffed our faces. I had a good sleep, not sure you had a good sleep Maura. She's been drinking long into the night."

To which Maura playfully retorted: "Barry don't tell everyone!" Nevertheless, Barry carried on with his banter: "Ohh it's amazing, you wouldn't believe it when you look at her", reports the Mirror.

While speaking with host Joel Dommett, Maura confessed to only clocking an hour and a half of sleep as she rejoiced her jungle escape. She shared: "I only slept for an hour an a half. I went crazy with the food, I had a bottle of wine last night, yeah I definitely went overboard."

When Barry inquired: "One bottle of wine?" she responded: "Yes only one Barry! And my stomach is a bit dodgy today, I'm not going to lie." Their departure came as a shock to many viewers since the pair had been tipped as potential finalists.

On the episode that followed her exit, Maura revealed she had mixed feelings about leaving the jungle. Despite claiming to be "really happy" post-departure, in the aired scene, Maura admitted she felt it wasn't time for her to go, yet had a premonition about the day's outcome.

She expressed: "I don't want to go! I'm not ready to leave! But if it's my time, it's my time."

And indeed it was her time as within moments, presenters Ant and Dec announced her departure, with Maura confessing she had predicted the result: "I knew it, I had that feeling."

Her campmates were taken aback by the sudden goodbye, especially Coleen Rooney who acknowledged the loss of Maura and Barry, stating: "I'm gutted. Two big personalities, they will be truly missed."

Upon leaving the camp, Maura joined the hosts in the studio to reflect on her experience. She reiterated her contentment, saying: "I'm really happy! I said it last night, I said it this morning, I was like 'It's my time,' I had a gut feeling and my gut feeling is never wrong!" 

In addition to recognising the challenge, she described the show as the "most amazing" journey. Speaking to Ant and Dec, Maura shared: "I really did embrace it, I didn't think I'd embrace it as much as I have."

She also looked back at her luxury arrival, recalling fond memories and praising Reverend Richard Coles as a "lovely human".

I'm A Celebrity continues at 9:30pm on ITV1 and ITV X.
