“They all get together every week to sing along and help those with Alzheimer’s… so I’m going to go sing along and donate my minutes.”
During her stint on the programme, Scarlette also paid tribute to late fashion designer Vivienne Westwood.
The punk icon’s death was confirmed in a statement by her family on Thursday (December 29), with Scarlette wearing a necklace from Vivienne’s brand in tribute to the late star.
Pointing to her necklace, Scarlette added: “This is for her. I have worn that.”
Scarlette’s sad loss follows her being left devastated by her A Place in the Sun colleague Jonnie Irwin’s terminal cancer diagnosis.
The star replaced Good Morning Britain’s regular entertainment correspondent Richard Arnold earlier this week.
She was the second celebrity to leave the jungle earlier this year.
