NIGEL FARAGE CONFIRMED FOR I'M A CELEBRITY GET ME OUT OF HERE

GB News presenter and former politician Nigel Farage hopes to dispel public misconceptions that he is ‘mean spirited’ during his time in the famous ITV1 jungle as he predicts he will be voted for plenty of trials because ‘millions hate him’.

Phobias: Nobody likes rats, snakes and I am dreading anything to do with heights.

Biggest misconception you want to dispel: I have been demonised over the years and so it will be nice to show people I am not nasty.

Role in camp: Lead on starting up plenty of campfire discussions.

Aside from your family, what will you miss the most whilst in camp: A pint in the pub and the news.

Best & worst attributes: I hope to cheer people up when they are down. Worst? I am impatient and I do snore.

Dream camper: As a controversial political media figure, I never name names… But I am looking forward to meeting interesting people from all different fields.

I'm A Celebrity returns Sunday at 9pm on ITV1.
