Well, well, well. Just when you think you know I'm a Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here! a sneaky celeb like 2016 and 2023 campmate Jordan Banjo let's a secret slip. And we are LIVING for it.

To be fair, when Closer caught up with the KISS radio breakfast show presenter we did encourage him to spill the beans on some behind-the-camera secrets. And boy, did he.

He told us, “The rice and beans are the most awful thing you will ever eat. People come out like, ‘Do you know what, you get used to it, it’s not that bad!’ It’s a lie, they are awful.”

He then shared a bit too much information with another camp secret. “When I was cleaning out the long drop, which is the dunny, I spilled it. As soon as I pulled it out, I dropped it, spilled it everywhere. Not something you want to be spilling.”

Understatement of the century.

This isn't the first time Jordan has let slip some behind the scenes secrets. He previously confessed to Closer that there's a bunch of hidden camera men that follow the celebrities around camp.

He explained, "So it's really real but when you get taken to and from trials and around the camp at all times there's literally about 15 guys all dressed in camoflauge.

"But you don't know they are there. It's just in case a snake, spider or something dangerous gets into camp and they have to get rid of it."
