I’m A Celebrity champ Scarlett Moffatt and her family will ‘turn backs’ on Gogglebox after star is crowned Queen of the Jungle

GOGGLEBOX star Scarlett Moffatt was crowned Queen of the Jungle last night after romping home as winner of I’m A Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here!

Scarlett, 26, beat Emmerdale star Adam Thomas, 28, and comedian Joel Dommett, 30, after being the stand-out favourite from the start of the series.

She is now set to pocket a £1million payday in endorsements and TV deals.

But last night her parents Betty and Mark said she was still just “our Scarlett”.

Mum Betty told The Sun: “She’s very grounded and I hope she’ll always stay like that. She just watches TV. She’s a normal girl.”

The Durham-born star, whose witty one-liners and brutal honesty have seen her go from working a nine-to-five job to a household name in under a year, has watched the show since she was a child.

Her parents, who live in Bishop Auckland, Co Durham, say before going in she was worried campmates would think she was a member of the public.

Her series highlight came as she ate camel’s nipples, cow anus and turkey testicles in a gruesome Bushtucker Trial with Carol Vorderman.

But she struggled after ending up at the centre of a row between Danny Baker and Martin Roberts.

Scarlett has been the most popular star of Channel 4 hit Gogglebox since joining the show one year after it began in 2014.

But The Sun can reveal the star, who was a student disability adviser a year ago, will now turn her back on the show.

She will instead focus on her burgeoning TV career without her co-star parents.

In an exclusive interview ahead of last night’s final Betty, 46, who works at clothes store Burton, and welder Mark, 50, are more than happy to return to how life was before they became household names.

She told The Sun: “If we don’t go back, we don’t. That’s up to Channel 4. It’s opened a lot of doors for Scarlett and has enabled her to achieve some of her dreams. There’s no negative.

“The thing I’ve enjoyed most is getting to spend time with her every week. She’s not a celebrity — she’s just our Scarlett.”
