Newly crowned King of the Jungle musician Danny Jones has given his first interview – revealing all to interviewer Lorraine.
Speaking about how it feels to be reunited with his wife and little boy Cooper, Danny said: “I think that was the best surprise I ever had in my life…. To see my family there in the jungle, smiling at me, that was unbelievable.”
Asked what he loved most about the camp, Danny said: “I think what made it for me was the campmates. The campmates were incredible. They asked questions and they listened… It was the most overwhelming, amazing, rewarding experience I will ever have in my life,”
He said: “Barry was amazing. He was my jungle Dad. He always had my back and I think I leaned on him a lot for advice and kind of that arm around sometimes because you are very vulnerable in there.
“There are times where you are talking about some deeper stuff and I didn’t expect to open up like that. I didn’t expect to show my vulnerable side… I showed a side that only my nearest and dearest see really. I have been myself and showed everything and I feel really thankful that everyone bothered to vote for me. I feel on top of the world being King of the Jungle.”
Danny’s wife, Georgia, also joined him on screen where she discussed how it felt to have him back: “It’s weird seeing him. He came home with a full beard and I’ve never seen him like that before so that was different. He then decided to shave it into a handlebar moustache… I wasn’t sure!”
