Monday night’s episode saw GK Barry become a fan favourite contestant when she successfully took on the “Vile Volcano” Bushtucker trial. Elsewhere, Coleen Rooney dished out juicy details surrounding her infamous “Wagatha Christie” trial, while the rest of the campmates started bonding.

During one emotional campsite chat, boxer Barry McGuigan broke down in tears as he opened up about the loss of his daughter, Danika, while Rooney reflected on the death of her sister, who died when she was 14.

Rylan shuts down criticism of Tulisa Contostavlos’s apearance

Rylan has shut down criticism surrounding Tulisa Contostavlos during the launch episode of the series.

The N-Dubz singer was a judge on The X Factor in 2012 when Rylan competed and finished fourth, and her appearance on the ITV reality show arrives after what has been a tough decade for the star.

Rylan, who is now a successful TV presenter, pledged his support for Contostavlos as the launch episode began. He shared a photo of the singer, writing: “YES 2012 come throughhhhhhh.”

He then added: “Also before people start going for appearance, Tulisa has been through a lot health wise the last few years so let’s not make s*** jokes about her on twitter yeah.”
