The weather could cause trouble for ITV’s I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! yet again as the Met Office have placed a weather warning on Abergele, where Gwrych Castle is based.
Strong winds could kick off from Tuesday, December 7, as a warning has been placed on the area with heavy rain expected too from 11am right through to 3pm.
The Met Office warning states Abergele as an affected area, while also adding that it’s likely to spread across the UK with high winds expected from 9am right through to midnight on Tuesday.
The likely outcomes of the harsh weather will include delays, risk of some short term loss of power and other services and large waves in communities near the coast.

Anything from high winds to loss of power could cause concern for ITV who have currently set up base with celebs in the camp.
Locals in the area are also warning people against coming to Abergele just to see the castle due to the concerns, with one person warning a tourist not to come for “the next three days” due to the storm.
It comes after the first week of I’m A Celeb was left in tatters after the show was forced off air following Storm Arwen hitting the site – though the castle remained pristine, the quarters around it left both celebs and ITV producers at risk.

Bosses opted to remove the celebrities from the castle after it was confirmed that the crew were left unable to work in the tents in the surrounding areas.
ITV released a statement at the time to confirm they were unable to go ahead with a number of episodes.
They said at the time: “Whilst we get the production base back up and running after suffering technical issues due to the storm, we have removed the celebrities from the castle.”

Technical difficulties is ultimately what made the show be pulled off air, but nothing has been announced in the lead-up to the bad weather expected this week.
The final episode of I’m A Celeb will air on Sunday, December 12, but the first celebrity – Arlene Phillips – has only just been voted off the show due to delays.
Regardless, the King or Queen of the castle will be confirmed on Sunday, December 12 – so it’s only a matter of time.
I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! continues tonight on ITV at 9pm.
