Make-up free Vicky Pattison arrives home from three-month holiday after I’m A Celeb Australia stint to get married
The former Geordie Shore star has been in South Africa, where she filmed the Australian version of I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here!, before heading Down Under and then flying to Dubai for a sunshine break
A MAKE-UP free Vicky Pattison was seen looking fresh-faced as she arrived back at Heathrow Airport in London today after a long period abroad.
The former Geordie Shore star, 30, recently took part in the Australian version of I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here!, which is filmed in South Africa, and then sunned herself in the warm weather of Dubai following her television appearance and a trip to Oz.
The former Queen of the Jungle, who took part and won the UK version of the show in 2015 after leaving her MTV series the previous year, and who hosted ITV2 spin-off show I’m A Celebrity: Extra Camp in 2016, took part in the jungle programme, which first aired Down Under early in February this year.
She was evicted from the show in fourth place, one night before the final on 12 March, but travelled out to Kruger National Park, where it is taped, in January, shortly before it started.
The television star even put her wedding to fiancé John Noble on hold after being offered a £250,000 pay packet.
Last week Vicky left Sydney in Australia and flew to Dubai where she enjoyed some downtime with John and their friends.

And after arriving back in England today, she may already be turning her thoughts to her upcoming wedding once again.
On putting her nuptials on hold, Vicky recently told News.com.au: “It was going to be this year and everyone was speculating – why is it going to be put back? Is she pregnant, have they fallen out of love? Does she have cold feet? No – I’m off to the b***dy jungle I haven’t got time to plan a wedding.
“You’re just completely cut off. I’m going to be away for a month but there’ll be a week after that, there’s a week before it you get out – it’s six weeks.
“If you’ve got a florist emergency, I can’t be like, ‘Hold that kangaroo anus for a second, I’ve got my florist on the phone!’ So I think the best decision for everyone was to postpone it.”
Vicky, who rose to fame in Australia after Geordie Shore aired there, may also be planning a bigger wedding after raising her profile - and earnings - there with her latest TV booking.
A source recently told The Daily Star Sunday: “This is a very big deal. It will give her a chance to reach a whole new audience and prove she can be a hit outside of the UK.”
