Jacqueline Jossa takes playful swipe at I’m A Celeb campmate Kate Garraway for being ‘too nice’ in the jungle

JACQUELINE Jossa took a playful swipe at her I'm A Celeb co-star Kate Garraway saying she was "too nice" in the jungle.

The show champ admitted Kate's attitude got under her skin, jokingly describing her as "painful" to live with.

Jacqueline, 27, made her remarks when Alan Carr invited the pair on to his chat show Re-Play, and pointed out that this years' crop of celebs were "all so friendly".

But the ex-EastEnders star said it was too much to bear, and told the host: "It was very painful.

"She was too nice all the time."

Teasing the Good Morning Britain presenter, Jacqueline added: "She said sorry about everything."

Rolling her eyes and laughing, Kate apologised, again, and confessed: "I got on her nerves."

Do-gooder Kate almost caused a huge row on I'm A Celeb when she offered herself up for a trial - but hadn't really wanted to.

It was over who would be sent to the jungle jailhouse on basic rations, with Jacqueline and Girls Aloud singer Nadine Coyle, 34, ruling themselves out first.

Kate was eventually picked to go and when Jacqueline asked her if she was OK with it, she replied: "I don't know really is the truth of it. Someone's got to go."

Rugby star James Haskell insisted he would take Kate's place but Caitlyn Jenner said: "We all agreed to draw (straws) out of the bag.

"Everybody quiet, let's move on. No argument."

But Ian Wright wouldn't give up, and he asked James again if he would go for Kate, to which she screamed: "No. It's a fair system."

But Jacqueline said: "This is just ridiculous ... you shouldn't have put your name in if you didn't want to go.

"There are people who wanted to go. They were up for it."

Alan Carr’s Celebrity Re-Play is available to stream on the ITV Hub.
