I like to have eight hours of sleep, I like to eat nice things, I like to just chill out and I never put myself out of my comfort zone.<\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-9a00e533-0 eZyhnA\">&#8220;Then when I turned 40, I started to get scared of ridiculous things. I didn&#8217;t want to be this person. Doing this is such a massive life experience and it is not something you can pay to do.<\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-9a00e533-0 eZyhnA\">&#8220;So now I am 40, I think it will be pretty cool to do I&#8217;m A Celebrity.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-9a00e533-0 eZyhnA\">The mother-of-three said she was &#8220;very worried about missing the kids&#8221; while in camp.<\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-9a00e533-0 eZyhnA\">&#8220;I have never been away this long before and I spend such a huge amount of time with them,&#8221; she explained. &#8220;It will be my biggest struggle.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/1762856288_495_grey-placeholder.png\" class=\"sc-5340b511-0 gUePlo hide-when-no-script\" aria-label=\"image unavailable\"\/><img decoding=\"async\"   src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/ca03c540-c547-11f0-88be-3bc2aea1a256.jpg.webp.webp\" loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"ITV The I'm A Celebrity campmates in the jungle\" class=\"sc-5340b511-0 hLdNfA\"\/>ITV<\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-9a00e533-0 eZyhnA\">Read Wilson, who was also a contestant on the fifth series of The Voice UK in 2016 and then runner-up on Celebrity Best Home Cook in 2021, said he was &#8220;feeling excited&#8221; about entering the jungle.<\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-9a00e533-0 eZyhnA\">&#8220;My first thought when they approached me about taking part was abject terror,&#8221; said the 39-year-old. &#8220;But I have got a very strict rule in life. If the only reason that you don&#8217;t want to do it is fear, you must do it, whatever it is.<\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-9a00e533-0 eZyhnA\">&#8220;I&#8217;m fearful as a porcupine and I am very nervous that my grey cells [brains] won&#8217;t dance properly in camp, too. At home, I do a cryptic crossword every day, I always have a book on the go and I am a bit worried that my frontal lobes will drop off if I don&#8217;t have a lubricant for it.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-9a00e533-0 eZyhnA\">He continued: &#8220;I can be vague at times and I don&#8217;t want to scatter brain cells over the camp.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-9a00e533-0 eZyhnA\">His role as a receptionist and client coordinator on Celebs Go Dating sees him greet the celebrities upon their arrival to the dating agency.<\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-9a00e533-0 eZyhnA\">He is also well known for his wide vocabulary and published a book about language in 2022.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Steven McIntoshEntertainment reporter ITV Irish TV presenter Vogue Williams and Celebs Go Dating receptionist Tom Read Wilson are&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":149242,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[42,43,40,38,41,39],"class_list":{"0":"post-149241","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-headlines","8":"tag-headlines","9":"tag-news","10":"tag-top-news","11":"tag-top-stories","12":"tag-topnews","13":"tag-topstories"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/149241","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=149241"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/149241\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/149242"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=149241"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=149241"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=149241"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
