Caitlyn Jenner left the ‘I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here!’ group chat after “two seconds”, according to Kate Garraway.
Kate Garraway says Caitlyn Jenner swiftly left the I'm A Celeb group chat
The former ‘Keeping Up With the Kardashians’ star, 72, was “over it” after appearing on the 2019 edition of the ITV reality competition in the Australian jungle and did not stick around to talk about the experience with some of her fellow campmates, who included Roman Kemp and Jacqueline Jossa, the eventual winner.
During a conversation on 'Good Morning Britain' about whether it's OK to leave a WhatsApp group chat, the 55-year-old broadcaster said: “I seem to remember there was a jungle WhatsApp group that was formed when we left 'I’m A Celebrity' and Caitlyn Jenner ... I think it was about two seconds [after] she exited the runway that she left the group chat.
“She was over it very early on!,” before clarifying that the Olympic champion had shared her personal number to stay in contact.
In 2020, Kate revealed she and Caitlyn were still chatting.
While on ‘Loose Women’, she said: “Yes [Caitlyn has stayed in touch]. She’s coming back over to the UK for the National TV Awards next week, so we’ll all get to see her again then.
“We haven’t actually seen her since because she was on that plane and out of there, ‘Can’t see me for dust, I want to get back to luxury.”
Kate remarked that despite her usual glamorous Hollywood life, Caitlyn was willing to pitch in “with everybody”.
She said: “Apart from the fact she has an extraordinary life, she was great, she just got stuck in with everybody.
“She was 70, sleeping on the floor of the jungle with rats and snakes and spiders and never moaned once. She’s amazing.”
This year will mark the return of 'I’m A Celebrity' to Australia after two years of COVID-19 restrictions forced ITV to relocate to Gwrych Castle in north Wales.
