Owen Warner "didn't know what to think" when fans started messaging asking him to fart for them and send pictures of his feet.
The ‘Hollyoaks’ star detailed how one admirer offered him £50 for a “fart” but has opted to stop checking the stranger side of his inbox since competing on last year's 'I'm A Celebrity...Get Me Out Of Here' because once you get going you can lose “hours” getting lost in them.
The 23-year-old actor told the Daily Star newspaper: “I’ve had some very flirty messages. I’ve had people asking for pictures of my feet.
“I had one fan who asked me to fart for him for £50.
“I was surprised when I got the messages. I didn’t really know what to make of them.
“I don’t really check those kinds of messages now. I’m trying to stay away from that. If you start reading them, you end up doing it for two hours.
However despite this, Owen loves his increased profile since finishing as runner-up on the ITV1 star-studded survival show - which was eventually won by ex-Lioness captain Jill Scott - has given him and how people love to stop and have a chinwag with all his new “mates”.
He said: “I used to get recognised from ‘Hollyoaks’ so people only knew me as my character. But since I was on ‘I’m A Celebrity, they know me, which is amazing.
“They chat to me like as if they know me. I chat to people like they’re my best mate.
“The more mates, the better. I’ve been taken aback by all the love.”
Owen recently confirmed his relationship with Jemma Donovan, the 23-year-old daughter of Jason Donovan with an Instagram gallery of them looking loved up as they holidayed with his co-star on the Channel 4 soap and her family in Mallorca, including the ex ‘Neighbours’ icon, 54, which included a prank proposal.
He captioned the joke: “She’s still not forgiven me for that one.”
