Nigel Farage warns I’m A Celeb co-stars they may suffer his jungle rages saying ‘I’m prone to being short-tempered’
NIGEL Farage has sent a warning to his I’m A Celebrity co-stars about his ‘jungle rages’ ahead of his anticipated stint Down Under.
The former politician has flown out to Australia to take part in this year’s edition of the hit ITV show but he has already made clear that his campmates should be wary about his ‘short temper’.
Nigel, 59, confessed that while he hoped to show the ‘real him’, there is one side that viewers and his co-stars may be left less than impressed with.
Speaking to The Sun, Nigel said: “If I’ve got a fault, well, sometimes I can get a bit impatient.
“I think that being short-tempered is something I’m prone to a little bit and I guess in there, food deprived, I’m going to have to learn to be patient with people even if they’re goading me.”
Despite this warning, he insisted that he was a “remarkably normal” individual and was excited to get stuck in.
He added: “I’m remarkably normal. I know that’s disappointing, but remarkably normal.
“I enjoy the sort of things that most people enjoy. I care about things that a lot of people care about.
“I’m not an exceptional person in any way at all.”
Nigel continued: “I just happen to be somebody who has ideas and works very hard at trying to fulfil them, which is why I’ve made myself such a nuisance for the British and European establishment.
“But look, in the camp, of course as you say, people see the real you and I would like to think that I could work with other people as a team.”
Nigel is thought to be pocketing a rumoured £1.5million for his stint in the infamous Aussie camp.
He previously told GB News, with whom he presents a talk show, that he could find himself in “a fight” if things go awry on the Ant & Dec fronted show.
Nigel said: “The downsides – well look. It could be a complete, total car crash. A disaster.
“I might finish up having a fight with somebody – who knows! I might get voted out on the first round, I don’t know.”
I’m A Celebrity…Get Me Out Of Here! starts at 9pm, ITV1, Sunday November 19
