Fresh from her eviction from the I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here! jungle, Kelly Brook showcased a stunning transformation as she reunited with her husband, Jeremy Parisi, in Australia. The model, 46, was spotted looking radiant on Thursday evening after nearly three weeks of basic camp life.
A Glamorous Return To Civilisation
Kelly Brook made a stylish return to the Gold Coast's Marriott hotel in Surfers Paradise, having just filmed the spin-off show I'm A Celebrity Unpacked. She swapped her camp attire for a figure-hugging leopard print dress with a plunging neckline, which she paired with strappy gold heels. The brunette beauty sported a fresh blow-dry and glowing makeup, a world away from her jungle appearance.
She was all smiles as she held hands with her husband of three years, Jeremy Parisi, 40, who looked dapper in a smart white jacket. The couple were reunited on the jungle bridge on Tuesday night after Brook became the fourth celebrity to be voted off the ITV reality show.
Cheeky Confessions & Thin Hotel Walls
In a hilarious and candid moment with The Daily Mail, Brook revealed a potential predicament at their five-star accommodation. She and Jeremy are staying in a room sandwiched between Vogue Williams and Jeremy's sister.
"How thin are the walls of the Marriott?" she laughed. "So we're being sandwiched between Vogue and my husband's sister. So yeah, we'll just have to be extra quiet. Extra quiet."
With characteristic wit, she added: "Do you know what, I'll drop some ear plugs into both of their rooms tonight, it's the least I can do." The couple, who have been together for ten years, had never spent more than a day apart before her jungle stint. "This was the longest time and it was really difficult," she confessed. "I don't want to spend that much time away from him again."
Revealing The Truth Behind 'Milkgate'
During her appearance on Unpacked, Kelly Brook disclosed that she had always planned to expose the infamous 'milkgate' scandal as her exit strategy. She conspired with fellow campmates Aitch, 25, and AngryGinge, 24, to secretly enjoy milk bottle sweets won in a Deals on Wheels challenge, leading the camp to believe they had fewer than they did.
"I just thought to myself... that's going to be my exit strategy," she explained. "It was a bit of game play... I thought 'you know what, at least I've got a little trump card on the exit'." True to her plan, as she left the camp she casually revealed there were "more than 10 sweets" won, throwing Aitch and Ginge into a panic to cover their tracks.
The truth was fully revealed to Ruby Wax after she became the fifth celebrity evictee on Wednesday. Hosts Ant and Dec informed her that the trio had actually eaten 20 of the 30 sweets won. A shocked Ruby declared: "I'll have to punish them when they come out, very badly, I can't believe it."
Reflecting On Her Jungle Eviction
Brook also shared her thoughts on why the public voted her out just days before the final. She believes her neutral stance in camp may have been a factor. "I stayed very neutral with everybody, I didn't kind of lean on anyone in particular," she said.
She highlighted the generational divide, joking about the energy of her younger campmates. "When you've got Ginge and Aitch jumping around... there's nothing that ages you more than 20 year olds." She also fondly mentioned her bond with campmate Martin Kemp, 64, describing him as her "karaoke partner" and noting they often took naps together during the day.
Her departure followed the exits of Alex Scott, Eddie Kadi, and Vogue Williams, with Ruby Wax leaving the night after her. The remaining campmates continue to battle for the title of King or Queen of the Jungle.
