HE has been living his best life in the I’m A Celebrity jungle but one thing Babatunde Aleshe is surely missing is his beloved wife Leonie.

Opening up on how the romance began, the comedian told his fellow campmates rugby star Mike Tindall and actor Owen Warner: “We were friends at school and then one day I was like ‘Wow, you’re pretty’ and it went from there.”
Babatunde and Leonie married in 2015 and now share son Judah together.
Responding to the scene while watching back at home, Leonie confirmed that it was their first date on Instagram and even admitted she was late meeting him.
Leonie said: “Okay so our first date was Nandos and I was late and he told me, ‘If you’re late again you’ll get here and I won’t be here. And I kid you not, he wasn’t joking”.

Travel business coach Leonie opened up about her husband during an appearance on ITV’s Lorraine where she have her thoughts on how her husband would fare in the jungle.
Giving a clearer insight to their first sate, she shared: “We didn’t have much money so Nandos was quite up there and we did sit in.”
“He was really stern on the first date and I thought this was going to be fun and exciting but he was laying down all these rules, but we absolutely just fell in love within like seven days.”
She spoke about the star’s fear of heights and his decision to quit his first bushtucker trial before he even began.
She said: “You know what he didn’t mention it at the beginning that he is scared of heights and then the public discovering it, they thought ‘oh yes, let’s go for that then'”.
She added: “He is quite headstrong and once he decides to do something he does it but I don’t think he was ready to be on the edge of a building [at the start].
“In the jungle, yes, but not on a building, but he’s doing well.”
His wife however admitted she thought Babatunde would struggle with the lack of food in the camp.
She admitted: “That’s the thing you look forward to most [in the jungle] and he’s a really big snacker so he will really miss it.”
“I think he’s going to come back really ripped from all the snacks he hasn’t been eating.”
