Vogue Williams and Tom Read Wilson have joined the camp – but they were given less than a friendly welcome, as they left their fellow campmates fuming tonight
I’m A Celebrity newcomers Vogue Williams and Tom Read Wilson caused instant tension after arriving in camp and immediately taking charge of the chore rota.
The hit ITV reality show – fronted by Ant and Dec – returned on Thursday night as the celebrities returned from a challenge, having watched Aitch, Ginge and Kelly tackle the ‘Camp Fright’ trial, only to discover their camp had been dramatically transformed
Ginge, Jack, Aitch and Eddie’s comfy beds had been removed and replaced with basic camp beds and hammocks. Two pristine thrones had been set up for the newly appointed Bush Explorers, while the Treehouse — now reserved for the newcomers – had been upgraded with plush beds, soft chairs and even a tannoy system for speaking to the camp below.
Vogue and Tom wasted no time settling into their luxurious new surroundings. Vogue teased Tom as they explored the space, telling him: “You’re posher than Spenny]Spencer Matthews], you’re the poshest person I’ve ever met”!
But their arrival didn’t go unnoticed by the rest of the camp. Ruby admitted in the Bush Telegraph that she could feel a shift, saying: “I think the dynamic is going to change now with the two chiefs here, I really do feel like it’s kind of Lord of the Flies, there’s two sides and we may annihilate each other, or we may fall in love”.
Sensing the shake-up, Jack confided his concerns to fellow campmates. He said: “I feel resistance to Vogue and Tom, I’m just kinda like, ‘ Hey you don’t get to walk in halfway through the movie and decide to turn it off or change it… ‘”
Once everyone gathered around the campfire, Vogue and Tom unveiled the new chore list – and it certainly raised eyebrows.
Kelly and Martin were assigned as the camp chefs, with Vogue and Tom explaining that Kelly looked a little bit like Nigella. Ruby and Lisa were put in charge of washing up, while Eddie and Ginge were given responsibility for the water supply. Alex and Aitch were tasked with collecting wood. That left Jack and Shona to take on the least glamorous job in camp: dunny duty.
Vogue Williams, 40, is a presenter, podcaster and former reality TV star. She also co-hosts the hit podcast My Therapist Ghosted Me and has hosted shows like The Big Deal. Vogue is married to Made in Chelsea alum Spencer Matthews. The couple shares three children together: son Theodore, a daughter named Gigi Margaux, and a younger son, Otto James.
On joining the show, she said: “I always thought I wouldn’t do it, because I’ve gotten too comfortable in my life. 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.
“Then when I turned 40, I started to get scared of ridiculous things. I didn’t want to be this person. Doing this is such a massive life experience and it is not something you can pay to do. So now I am 40, I think it will be pretty cool to do I’m A Celebrity.”
Meanwhile, Tom Read Wilson is probably best known for appearing on Celebs Go Datingwas a contestant on the fifth series of The Voice UK. He said:” My first thought when they approached me about taking part was abject terror, “said the 39-year-old”. But I have got a very strict rule in life. If the only reason that you don’t want to do it is fear, you must do it, whatever it is.
“I’m fearful as a porcupine and I am very nervous that my grey cells]brains] won’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’t have a lubricant for it”.
He continued: “I can be vague at times and I don’t want to scatter brain cells over the camp”.
