I’M A Celebrity’s Ruthie Henshall became the second person to leave the castle and declared: “That was brutal.”
The actress broke down in tears as she revealed the show had pushed her emotions to the surface about her struggles as a single mum.
She also revealed her regret about spilling the beans on having sex with Prince Edward in Buckingham Palace.
Within moments of leaving camp, Ruthie said she “could taste the burger” she planned to scoff tonight and said of the experienc: “My time in the castle has been brilliant, we have not stopped laughing. It has been an absolute rollercoaster.”
She added: “It was definitely brutal. you have absolutely no control in there and the rollercoaster of emotions is ridiculous.
“You think about things that you haven’t thought about in years.
“Everyone in there was so delightful and wonderful.”
Ruthie was quizzed by hosts Ant and Dec about her relationship with Prince Edward.
Disappointed she had been heard saying ” I s****ed in the bedrooms”, Ruthie said: “I’ve never spoken about that before. It was Shane, he kept asking me all these questions.
“I felt like I was just having a chat with a mate and it was only afterwards I thought about the ramifications.
“I could have made some money and sold the story, damn.”
“As a mother, all you do is think about the things you’ve done wrong. You never think about the things you’re doing right.
“I’ve had a really good chance to think and talk to the other mums in here and that has been incredible.
“I’ve been a single mum for so long and you have to be good cop and bad cop.
“You’re trying to figure out how to deal with each situation and you have no idea.
“You just wish there was someone else there to deal with it.
“I found my emotions were completely on the surface. I would definitely say I’m an emotional person, as you can see, I’m so sorry.”
Earlier tonight Giovanna was in tears after missing out on a treat from home.
The stars got the chance to win messages from their families – as well as a special gift.
Everyone got treats from home, apart from AJ, Jordan and Giovanna who couldn’t hide her disappointment.
The campmates took it in turns to take a key from the bucket to open a box.
A star equalled a meal for camp, if they found a treat they had to nominate who would receive theirs. An empty box meant no win and that key was lost.
Speaking in the Telegraph an emotional Giovanna said: “Your heart aches and then you attach yourself to anything.
“How lovely would it be to hear from Tom and the boys, just a sentence?
“It’s a sentence and I’m going to pretend each sentence anyone gets is from the kids and I’m going to adopt them like they’re mine.”
