Lisa Riley's juicy Ant McPartlin crush on I'm A Celeb

Emmerdale actress Lisa Riley set the campfire alight with an X-rated confession during Monday's episode of I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here!, revealing her secret crush on presenter Ant McPartlin.

Campfire Confessions

The 49-year-old star, best known for playing Mandy Dingle, didn't hold back when rapper Aitch, 25, asked which of the hosting duo - Ant or Dec - was 'tastier'. Without hesitation, Lisa declared: 'Ant is way tastier, oh god Ant is juicy!'

Elaborating on her choice, the actress, who has been engaged to partner Al since 2014, saucily claimed: 'Dec would look after you, Dec would tuck you in at night when I think Ant would give you...a nice night.' Her comments sent fellow campmates into fits of giggles around the campfire.

Bush Telegraph Revelations

Later, in the privacy of the Bush Telegraph, Lisa further explained her admiration for the presenter. 'I'm a red blooded 49-year-old woman and yes I do think Ant McPartlin is very juicy,' she laughed.

The actress was quick to clarify that her comments were purely appreciative, comparing it to window shopping. 'You can go to Chanel, you don't have to buy anything you can look,' she said. 'I am very very happily settled relationship lady with my Al, but I can still have a look.'

Why Marriage Isn't On The Cards

Lisa's campfire confession comes amid previous revelations about her personal life. Earlier this year, the soap star explained why she will never marry her fiancé Al, despite his proposal over a decade ago.

In a heartfelt explanation, Lisa revealed that both their mothers have tragically passed away - her mother Cath to cancer in 2012, and Al lost his mother more recently. 'We've lost both our mums,' she told The Mirror. 'And when it comes to things like weddings, you do it for the other people.'

The actress added: 'I truly couldn't cope with the big day without my mum by my side - why would I want to put myself through that?' She described their relationship as already feeling married, stating: 'If it ain't broke, don't fix it. We're 11 years together in June.'

Elsewhere in the episode, viewers saw Lisa come to the rescue when fellow campmate Kelly Brook accidentally sent her toothbrush flying into the jungle wilderness. The former model panicked about facing three weeks without it, but Lisa bravely retrieved it from the bush below.

An impressed Aitch told the Bush Telegraph: 'Lisa saved the day, she got right down there. I don't even think she's allowed down there to be honest. She's breaking the rules and everything, she's a badman.'
