Emily Atack cries and says I’m A Celebrity has given her confidence again as she comes second in live final

EMILY Atack cried as she revealed taking part in I’m A Celebrity had helped her feel confident again.

The 28-year-old broke down as she was named runner up to the new jungle King, Harry Redknapp.

Emily has made no secret of how much she struggled with her self-confidence before signing up to the jungle.

A difficult break up with her boyfriend at the start of the year shattered her confidence, with Emily admitting she was constantly questioning herself.

But after she completed a three-week stint Down Under, Emily said her whole outlook on life had been changed.

Emily explained: “This place makes me cry all the time. It’s changed my life in so many ways.

“I came into this not with a difficult start to the year. I didn’t know what I was doing. I have so much self acceptance. I worry about things constantly at home. I realise I don’t have to do that.

“I will never doubt myself again. I can survive in the jungle so now I can do anything.

“It’s the most mental thing ever. I found new love and respect for myself.”

Emily became a firm fan favourite during her time in the jungle as she faced her fears and took on some seriously scary challenges.

She was the first star to tackle a Bushtucker Trial and she put on a brave face despite being bitten by snakes.

Her close friendship with John Barrowman also endeared her to viewers and the pair have even been tipped to land their own reality show.

During her time in the jungle Emily thanked show bosses for giving her the opportunity as the series has helped her through a difficult year.
