Vogue Williams vows to bring Traitors-style ‘mischief’ to I’m A Celebrity camp

Vogue Williams is entering the I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! camp as a latecomer with Celebs Go Dating star Tom Read Wilson, and she admits she likes play “the game”

Vogue Williams is promising to bring Traitors-style mischief to I’m A Celebrity as she becomes one of two new arrivals in the jungle.

The Irish presenter has already blitzed the Christmas shopping, filled the cupboards and menu-planned for the next month back home ahead of her stint Down Under. And now the mum, 40, is entering the I’m a Celebrity camp on Thursday as a latecomer with Celebs Go Dating star Tom Read Wilson.

She admits she likes the idea of playing the game like a certain hit BBC show. “I would not mind causing a bit of mischief, a bit like Traitors vibes,” she laughed.

“I don’t want to annoy anyone, but I think I am very much willing to go along with the game.”

At home in London, life with husband Spencer Matthews and their three young children is a well-drilled operation. The couple share son Theodore, six, daughter Gigi, four, and youngest son Otto, three, and it is leaving them that is preying on her mind more than any Bushtucker Trial.

“My only real worry is missing the kids and missing Spencer and missing my family,” she said. “I have done all my Christmas shopping. I have done our food shops for the next four weeks.

“I have organised everything down to a tee because I kind of do all that stuff at home, so I have got everything organised so I do not have to worry when I get back.”

Vogue had to think carefully about how much she told the children after agreeing to take part. “I had to be careful telling my kids, because they have a bigger mouth than me,” she laughed.

“I have ignored everybody who has been texting asking if it’s true? I am like, ‘ignore, ignore.’ I showed the kids the last series to get them into it, and they absolutely loved it when people were having an absolute nightmare.

“So if I get thrown in with rats, that will be their dream.”

The star, who has built a huge following through her podcasts and radio work, said the strangest part of being Down Under is suddenly not being in charge of everyone’s day from the moment she wakes up.

Vogue said: “It is such a strange feeling, because obviously when you have kids, you have got this massive responsibility, and the first thing that you think of in the morning is them and all day it is about how you are going to organise everything that they need.

“And it is a really strange feeling not to have to do that. It is very relaxing.” Part of the reason she signed up for the hit ITV show was turning 40 and realising how set in her ways she had become.

“I am too comfortable in life,” she said. “I sleep with four pillows in my bed just for me. I think you have to push yourself out of your comfort zone, particularly when I turned 40.

“I was getting kind of stuck in my ways a little bit. I like things a certain way. I mean, I like to walk around the park a certain way and everything.”

She said she was oblivious to what she was getting herself in for which was a difficult concept to grasp as she was such a control-freak.

“It is going to be so weird, so different,” she said. I don’t even know what is happening at all. I do not know if I am going to be flung off a building, so for someone who loves control and to have a level of organisation around things, it is really weird for me to have all of that taken away.”

But she says there was one unexpected bonus: having her phone confiscated by producers. “My phone got taken away yesterday, and even that, it has not really bothered me,” she said.

“I have not watched the last two episodes of Selling Sunset but we will wait till I get back.”

She is braced for the lack of treats to play havoc with her usually steady mood. “You do not really know how you are going to be affected by things such as no sugar, or even salt,” Vogue said.

“All those things will make it a little bit harder. I am quite a stable person emotionally, really. But I think going in there and having all that taken away, and then kind of not being with people you know, might be difficult.”

As for the home-comforts she will miss the most, she admitted: “Coffee in the morning, the four pillows, my really comfortable bed, a nice toilet that I do not have to share with anyone, my LED face mask, food, loads of food, I love eating.”
