It comes after Olivia won the I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! 2023 line-up and admitted she’s ‘glad’ she won’t be returning to the show this year.
During an Instagram Q&A, she was asked by a fan if she was “sad” that she wasn’t returning after seeing the line-up, to which Olivia replied that she was “glad” she wasn’t part of the cast.
Olivia hinted at her very strong feelings for at least two of the campmates when she said there are celebrities she would “struggle” to be around, but cryptically did not reveal who she was referring to.
Responding to the fan, she wrote, “Am I ever going to escape the jungle show Q’s for the rest of my days? LOL.
“But to answer… no, I’m happy… there would have been more than two with whom I would have had difficulty sharing the same oxygen. (But I think this would be the same case every year, that’s the point).
‘The only problem I have is that I can’t close my trap x.’
