Ex I’m A Celebrity star Dean McCullough revealed the blunt warning he gave close friend Chloe Burrows ahead of the new series launch tomorrow night
Former I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! star Dean McCullough has revealed the number one piece of advice he’s shared with close friend Chloe Burrows as the new series gets ready to kick off tomorrow night at 9pm on ITV.
Dean, who appeared on the show in 2024, took part in seven Bushtucker Trials during his stint in camp. However, he was the second to be voted out after Loose Women presenter Jane Moore became the first celebrity to be axed by the public.
The radio DJ starred alongside Colleen Rooney, who became a firm favourite with viewers and went on to finish in second place behind McFly frontman Danny Jones.
This year, Colleen’s husband Wayne Rooney is set to make his way into the jungle alongside Chloe. They will also be joined by Gavin and Stacey star Joanna Page, TV presenter and former Paralympian Ade Adepitan, and Kaiser Chiefs frontman Ricky Wilson.
Dean said his close friend Chloe has been doing plenty of preparation, noting that some of this year’s contestants have been doing Pilates, adding extra gym sessions or taking practical steps like getting their hair braided.
But Dean shared that the best preparation is quitting coffee, urging Chloe to cut out the caffeine (and booze) before touching down in Oz. He warned caffeine withdrawal can make the early days in camp even tougher.
Speaking to the Mirror, he said: “I was like, ‘Chloe, stay away from coffee now. Stay away from booze now,’ because when you get to Australia and you’re coming off coffee, it sends people mad.”
He added: “Some of my campmates had like four or five coffees a day, and they’re waking up in the morning and all we’ve got is cloudy, smoky water to drink and they were losing their minds.”
When she arrived last week, Chloe said to the Mirror: “Don’t come too close I need a big fat shower, I stink. I got a 99p voucher holiday which has sent me to the Gold Coast. I am a big fan of Bondi rescue and am a big fan of Vegemite so I have come to check it out.”
Chloe starred on Love Island in 2021, where she arrived as the first bombshell of the series. She made it all the way to the final with now-ex Toby Aromolaran, with the couple placing runner up after winners Liam and Millie.
