I'm a Celebrity's Richard Coles says partner's death left 'massive hole' in his life

Tulisa is named the celebrity to face Shock Around the Clock after screaming her head off on the fright bus earlier this episode.

It had been between Tulisa and Maura Higgins. "It is what it is," the N-Dubz singer says. "

Rev Richard Coles amuses his campmates as he tells the time he was mistaken for one of The Pet Shop Boys.

Of course he was in a band before he become a vicar. Just not The Pet Shop Boys!

Richard Coles discusses the death of his former partner David.

The vicar says he knows what grief looks like but says it's like a bomb going off when it happens to you.

He tells Mabuse: "I miss him… I want him to walk in the door. I dream he walks in the door with coop bag. I said, 'I thought you were dead.' He said, 'I only went shopping. I'm not staying. I met someone else.' He’s just left a massive hole in my life and I’m living my life around that loss.

Tearful Oti Mabuse lays her heart on the line talking about her premature birth story with Rev Richard Coles.

"The worst thing was," she says. "Is that every night you need to leave them. You need to leave your baby in someone else's hand. I can't wait for you to meet her."

It's a very emotional moment. "They find comfort in your voice." She says, "For two months, every single day we’d sing church music."

The rev shares his own story too: "I remember going once to baptise a little boy, a premature boy, he was born very premature, he was only just alive…"

Coles fights back tears and Mabuse hugs him.

He says: "I just remember he was this tiny little pulse of life, and David [his then partner] got a pipette of water and we blessed it, and we baptised him and he survived and now he’s a healthy young footballer, which is great! But I just felt so… it was such a precious thing."

Mabuse says: "They are, my daughter was really, really tiny when she was born. It’s hell. It’s hell to be in the hospital, to hear those sounds, to not see your baby’s eyes for a week, it’s hell to constantly look for advice from the doctors."

Melvin Odoom is not enjoying the freezing cold showers! It looks chilly.

Rev Richard Coles' red socks catch on fire after he left them on the wood.

Dean McCullough couldn't believe it when they were held up for everyone to see. His mouth is left hanging open.

Maura Higgins and Jane Moore get six stars out of the trial.

"I wish we got more," Higgins says.

Yet Ant and Dec says they should be "very proud" because they had completed a "tough" trial.

Unfortunately they lost out where the Loose Women star skipped stars which were underwater, halving the chance of how many stars they could have got.

Maura Higgins complains the mud crabs are trying to eat her.

"They're trying to eat me," she screeches. "They're trying to latch onto me."

Maura Higgins says the trial is "torture" before screaming over the bugs again.

The Irish star is screaming the letters but Jane Moore can't seem to hear her properly. "A for a****hole," she screams at the star.

Eventually Moore gets it: BOAT.

Maura Higgins breaks down in tears over the spiders.

Screaming, she tries to go in but she let one out by accident — sparking her to scream more.

Before heading in, she cries out: "There's an awful amount of spiders. No, no, no I can't."

The former Love Island star attacks the webs and screams as she looks for the word so Jane Moore can unlock the star.

After Jane Moore gets their first star, Maura Higgins can leave the frogs behind and head into the den with lizards.

The Loose Women star misses one of the stars but she is going to work on getting the third.

Jane Moore dives beneath the water to start the trial.

She's "Loose swimming" she jokes. Meanwhile, Maura Higgins is getting nervous because she's seen a spider.

Ant and Dec are happy to get some fresh blood for the challenge after Dean McCullough did six trials out of nine.

They inform Maura Higgins and Jane Moore that the fright bus revealed the celebrity cohort were the loudest and most squealing campmates they have ever had.

Maura Higgins' heart is racing as she heads to the trial with Jane Moore.

"It'll be the washing up I haven't done," jokes the Loose Women star.

They head over the bridge to join Ant and Dec for the trial. "We're strong women Jane, we can do it," she says. "Twelve meals."

Moore is determined to do the trial — she wanted to get out of main camp and try it out. "I'm worried at the end of it," she says. "Shall we just lower our star expectation," she says after her words were cut off by screaming.

Get voting for Wednesday's trial Shock Around The Clock.

Take a look at what it entails.

Barry McGuigan went missing in the I'm a Celebrity jungle.

Tulisa shares her concerns after she lost sight of him in the camp. The former boxer was planning to help her do the dishes but raced on ahead and then the N-Dubz singer lost him.

She says: "Barry help out. Thing is with Barry he's speedy. I got down the bottom and I couldn't find him. Where's Barry?"

"Barry, Barry, Barry," she continues in her pursuit to find him. "Where the hell is he? Barry you've gone too far!"

McGuigan got lost in the I'm a Celeb jungle.

"Sorry," apologises McGuigan.

Ant and Dec can't resist making a joke about how McGuigan can't see and needs glasses — referring to the first trial where he was unable to see the padlocks. They capitalise on their joke from Byker Grove — the show that made them famous — where Dec's character says: "I cannot see!"

Delighted with his guitar from home, Danny Jones puts on a private gig for the whole of the I'm a Celebrity camp (and those watching at home).

It hits the right notes with camp as many of the celebs sing along. Melvin Odoom enthuses over the music played by Jones which he says raised everyone's spirits.

"Danny changed the whole vibe, one of the best nights we've had in camp," he says.

Also among the items won from the frightful journey is a polaroid camera.

Dean McCullough put on a show as he dazzles in the sequin dress — one of the items from the frightful bus journey.

"Giving it the Shirley Bassey," he says.

Meanwhile, Jane Moore is disappointed with the spotty dress she has in her luggage haul.

Maura Higgins, Tulisa and Barry McGuigan are the last to leave the frightful journey.

The former boxer confesses it was "dreadful" and "vile". Meanwhile, the former Love Island star admits she is "traumatised". Tulisa is disappointed she's a "screamer".

It's the final destination though and they're heading back to the jungle.

From the sidelines, Ant and Dec declare it the "best challenge ever". They joke the celebrities face an even bigger challenge... carrying their own luggage.

Barry McGuigan tries to calm down the remaining passengers Maura Higgins and Tulisa.

The former boxer remains calm in the chaos as hordes of green ants are dropping on them.

"Scrape them off, come on," he advises.

Maura Higgins admits she's terrified on the fright bus. "I'm on the verge of a heart attack," she says.

Danny Jones and Melvin Odoom meanwhile in the row in front are singing "I've got roaches in my pants".

Screaming continues as the ride on the bus never seems to end for the stars competing for the luxury items.

Screaming ensues.

The celebrities are brushing themselves down as the insects rain down on them.

In a hilarious turn, the stars sing Happy Birthday to Maura Higgins who declares it is the worst she has ever had.

Ant and Dec compare the fright bus to going to Sunderland — their rival football team.

The Geordies are big supporters of Newcastle United who are Sunderland's biggest rivals.

All aboard the fright bus!

When we left the I'm a Celebrity jungle last night, the stars had been on the fright bus being covered in insects. How have they fared?

Take a look at what's to come.

Maura Higgins revealed her biggest fears ahead of starring on I'm a Celebrity.

She said she was terrified of spiders and doing the eating challenge on the ITV jungle show. In Tuesday's episode, the former Love Island star will come face to face with spiders.

We have already seen the TV star smash the eating trial. How will she fare with spiders?

"I am absolutely petrified of the eating challenge and the one with the glass around your head with spiders in," she said ahead of the show. "Even talking about them, I start to sweat. I am not a nervous person, but this will be hard."

I'm a Celebrity viewers were in disbelief that Maura Higgins had turned 34 in the jungle.

She celebrated her birthday with a freezing cold shower and then she took out the dunny. The former Love Island star joked about her birthday in the jungle was totally different to how she has previously celebrated.

One you won't forget then Maura?

Hair-raising scenes capture the chilling screams of Maura Higgins in Tuesday's I'm a Celebrity's trial Fright at the End of the Tunnel.

Tense scenes show the former Love Island star breaking down as she is about to crawl through a tunnel packed with huge spiders.

She screams: "No! Spiders! I don't know if I can do it. There's an awful amount of spiders. Oh my God, no, no I can't."

From the sidelines, Ant and Dec try to keep Higgins calm and tell her to focus on her breathing ahead of diving into the spiders.

They explain that Jane Moore can't progress in the trial without the Love Island star doing her bit.

Will we hear those famous words... I'm a Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here?

The I'm a Celebrity campers got a taste of what doing a Bushtucker trial is really like when they boarded the fright bus.

After enjoying their dinner, celebrities were invited onto the bus to win treats for camp in Monday's episode. It was explained: "Tonight, you will all have the chance to win treats. However, to be in with a chance of winning, you will all need to take a trip on The Fright Bus!"

They have the chance to win luggage, each containing essentials or a tasty snack.

All they have to do is endure the bus and work in their rows to escape. Unfortunately those sat further back must ride for the longest. Poor Maura Higgins!

So far we've seen the celebrities screaming as bugs were dropped on them. We can't wait to see how they fare in the ride that will play out in Tuesday's episode.

Maura Higgins and Loose Women star Jane Moore are going to be doing Tuesday's I'm a Celebrity's trial Fright at the End of the Tunnel.

Check out a sneak peek of what you can expect from tonight's grisly trial!

Dean McCullough was finally not voted to do the Tuesday Bushtucker trial.

Monday's episode saw the radio star take on his sixth trial. It was a huge amount of trials because there have only been nine so far this series.

McCullough has been shrieking and screaming in fear while taking on each of the challenges. His lowest record number of stars was zero when he was teamed up with GK Barry.

During the six trials, he even cried out "I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here" twice. No, not because of insects or heights. The first time he used the infamous words were because of sand. The second time was because of fish guts.

McCullough made a plea to viewers not to vote for him to do the next trial and to give someone else a go. He then went onto secure 10 stars, impressing Ant and Dec.

Even the Geordie hosts have begged for viewers to vote for other celebrities to do trials. They joked they knew McCullough "too well" from seeing him at all the trials.

I'm a Celebrity's Coleen Rooney and her rival Rebekah Vardy "run the real risk" of falling out and even going back to court, lawyers told Yahoo.

Legal experts Christian Smith, Partner and Head of Dispute Resolution at Seddons LLP, and David Wright, Associate at Seddons LLP, told Yahoo: "Whilst you may have thought Coleen Rooney and Rebekah Vardy would have both wished to move on after their bruising litigation this new very public discussion about each other runs the real risk that they could find themselves falling out very badly again and yet again facing each other in court."

Rooney accused Rebekah Vardy's Instagram account for leaking information about her life to the press and she got the nickname "Wagatha Christie". Vardy sued her for libel but a judge at the High Court found Rooney's viral post to be "substantially true" in 2022. The latest in the long-running saga has seen Vardy appeal in November a recent ruling on Rooney's legal costs.

Wagatha Christie — a term trademarked by Vardy — is back in the news as Rooney is the biggest I'm a Celebrity signing this year, rumoured to getting £1.5m for the stint.
