Chris Moyles isn't allowed his iPad during his ‘I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here!’ isolation.
That's according to his "very good friend" Andi Peters, who revealed the former BBC Radio 1 DJ, 48, has been banned from having the Apple device while he and the rest of the celebrity contestants - who include pop icon Boy George and royal rugby player Mike Tindall - are isolating to ensure they are COVID-19-free before entering the Australian jungle.
While appearing on ‘Good Morning Britain’ on Tuesday (01.11.22), the 52-year-old TV presenter said: “We’re very, very good friends. I’m so excited to watch him. At the moment, they are all in isolation. ITV has put them in isolation on top of the rules in Australia to make sure they are COVID safe.
“I think this is the part he’s going to struggle with, just being by himself for 10 days. He asked for an iPad, they said no.”
Andi called Chris “determined” and “dedicated” and revealed the Radio X DJ wants to change “the perception” the public have of him.
He said: “He so wants to change the perception of him being an alpha male. He’s genuinely the sweetest man and I think that’s going to come across.”
Recently, Chris - who was rumoured as a campmate before ITV confirmed the full line up this week - admitted he is a “big fan” of not facing his fears.
He said: “Some people say if something scares you, then do it, but I am a firm believer you shouldn’t scare yourself!
“I am a big fan of my own comfort zone, too. I am petrified of heights and getting into camp will be a massive challenge for me.
“Even that rickety rope bridge makes my heart start going. I have never jumped out of a plane or walked out on a plank on a high rise building before and I know I have got to suck it all up.
“In the past, I always said no to offers to take part. But this year, I didn’t say no immediately, and I ended up going to a meeting.
“Now I don’t know why I said yes, but I am a huge fan of the show and I know what I am letting myself in for! My friends who have done it before told me I will have a great time.”
