Rita Simons made up for losing a stone in I’m A Celeb jungle

Rita Simons joked that she’d "eaten Brisbane" after losing a stone in the ‘I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here!’ jungle.
The former ‘EastEnders’ star was limited to mainly rice and beans in the camp, but she soon made up for it by scoffing everything in sight as she enjoyed a luxury stay in the Australian city before heading home.
Before flying back to the UK on Tuesday (11.12.18), she tweeted: "I lost a stone in the jungle. I am making up for it. I think I have eaten Brisbane."
The actress also shared a picture of her campmates – including Harry Redknapp and his wife Sandra, Fleur East, Emily Atack, John Barrowman, Nick Knowles and Noel Edmonds – and their family members on the micro-blogging site and admitted it was a very "tight" group.
She captioned the snap: "FAAAAAAAMLY. All our families who became just as tight as we were. Oh guys there’s so much love I think I’m gonna puke (sic)"
Rita stayed awake for 24 hours following her exit last week after downing "about 68 coffees" and eating "everything".
The 41-year-old star didn’t manage to get any shut-eye in during the first day she was out of camp, because she suffered from "bad acid indigestion" after chowing down on too much grub, and necking cups of coffee.
She said: "I would like to confess that I have not been to sleep at all.
"I wasn’t out, I was on a coffee high. I came out [of the jungle] and I had about 68 coffees.
"And I was doing all my press like that [shakes her hands].
"Then by the time I got to bed I had such bad acid indigestion because I’d eaten everything in the world, I just laid in bed like, ‘Urghh.’"
Following her ‘I’m A Celebrity’ exit, Rita found it difficult to wash the camp fire smoke out of her hair.
She said: "I had a club sandwich, which I shoved in my face so quickly there wasn’t time to breathe.
"Then I got in the shower and scrubbed my entire body twice – and hair twice.
"I got out of the shower and my hair still stank of campfire smoke, and it still does a little bit now.
"Then I ate some more and some more and some more and some more and I haven’t stopped eating since."
Harry Redknapp was crowned King of the Jungle 2018.
