But the price of fame has meant online trolling over her weight has often impacted on Scarlett's mental health.

Opening up about how she deals with her anxiety, Scarlett said: "I've read so many books. They've really helped.

"The Alchemist is really good. F**k My Anxiety is a good one. Anything by Matt Haig and The Nervous Planet is a good one.

"I've not had any therapy, I talk to my mum about it."

Scarlett earlier revealed she will miss pal host Ant McPartlin on I'm A Celeb this year, but has celebrated Holly Willoughby bringing girl power to the show.

It comes after Ant, 42, is taking time out of the spotlight to recover from his alcohol and prescription drug problems.

She said of his replacement Holly Willoughby: "I'm all for girl power, it's nice to get a bit of oestrogen to balance out the testosterone."

The 28-year-old, said: "I think we're all going to miss Ant - that's obvious, we all love him, but Holly is professional and lovely and amazing at what she does, like she said, she's keeping the seat warm for him.

"I'm all for girl power it's nice to get a bit of oestrogen to balance out the testosterone."
