Peter Andre to make an 'emotional' return to the I'm A Celebrity jungle where he met ex-wife Katie Price

'G'Day: Peter Andre arrives at Brisbane airport in Queensland, Australia on Thursday morning


Last time Peter Andre entered the jungle, he ended up with a wife in glamour model Katie Price.

But after two children and an acrimonious divorce, the Australian singer is preparing to return to I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here!

Although already scheduled to join the panel on the ITV2 spin-off show I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here Now!, Andre admitted he has one day in the camp he doesn't know what he's doing.


The father-of-two jetted into Brisbane airport on Thursday morning (local time) and made a brief visit to his parents Savvas and Thea on the Gold Coast ahead of his TV appearance.

Although ITV are keeping tight-lipped over what Andre will be doing in the jungle, he's up for a challenge.

He said: 'I’m on the ITV2 panel for three days, but I’m here for four days.

'They are not telling me what’s happening on the other day. They’ve blocked one day out and they’ve told me, "You’ll see what happens." I don’t know what they’re doing. Am I going in?'

Although Andre admits he would be happy to return, he would rule out any sky-diving.

He said: 'How would I feel about being dropped into the jungle? If it’s not to compete, I’m fine with it.

'Why not go in there and do a trial? Sure. I won’t jump out of a plane, but I’ll have a go at anything else.

'I’m looking forward to it, though. I wouldn’t mind going in there, as long as I’m not competing. I’d definitely drop in there for a day or two to have some fun.'

Andre famously met his ex-wife Price when they both appeared on I'm A Celebrity eight years ago.

A year later, they welcomed their first child together Junior and married a few months later during a lavish ceremony in Hampshire, which was broadcast on TV.

But less than a year after the birth of their daughter Princess Tiaamii, the couple split in May 2009 after three and a half years of marriage.

Andre admits it will be emotional returning to the place where he fell in love.

He said: 'It’s been emotional to return here. I had some mixed feeling yesterday.
I’ve been back to Australia since the jungle, but never back there.

'That was eight years ago. I know that because Harvey is nine years old. Wow! Can you believe it?

'The last time I came here single, I ended up walking out and getting married. This time I’m going to try and stay single.'

When asked about his opinion on the celebrities on the show so far, Andre asked if model Emily Scott was single.

But he admitted he probably couldn't compete with The Only Way Is Essex heart-throb Mark Wright, 23.

He explained: 'He’s the younger generation. He’s a good-looking bloke and he’s probably 15 years younger than me. I can’t compete.'
