Danielle Harold has become the fifth star to be thrown out of the jungle on I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here!.
And the EastEnders beauty admitted she prefers Josie Gibson’s meals to Fred Sirieix’s following the pair’s tense feud about cooking as it felt more like “home-cooking”. The 31-year-old actor paid the price for not being on screen enough and left Josie Gibson as the final female in camp.
After hearing the news she hugged her campmates and said: “I will eat for all of you and I will give hugs for all of you. Thanks for everything.” before leaving camp. When chatting with Ant and Dec, she was asked if she prefered Fred or Josie’s cooking, to which she replied: “I’m gunna go with Josie. I love Fred but I just love a bit of the home cooking.”

Danielle, who won prizes including a National TV Award for her incredible portrayal of Lola Pearce-Brown, showed viewers the person behind the character and was a happy campmate who got into no major rows. Her I’m A Celebrity adventure ended 24 hours after she had to have a tick removed.
She joked: “Jungle experience, tick… tick.” She also got to be camp leader earlier in the week, which meant she could sleep in the camper van. And she admitted she was surprised to make friends with everyone in camp including Farage, saying in the bush telegraph: “I never in a million years thought I’d have a friendship like this with Nigel, ever. Ever. We’re like, complete opposite in our views.”

On her final day she told Marvin Humes about how she became an actor, via Jamie Oliver’s Dream School. She said: “I won a scholarship and with the money I made a showreel. With that I met an agent. She was like… ‘I can’t take you on my books’… three days after she called me up and said, ‘I just so happen to have an audition drop on my table and I’ve got nobody on my books that fits, they want a young blonde girl.’” Days later she had a role in EastEnders.

Danielle was also an important person for improving morale and being a shoulder to cry on when Josie Gibson found things tough and was close to quitting. Before going into camp, Danielle had said she planned to get back into acting in 2024 once she finished her jungle adventure.
She said: “I’d love to continue to act. Obviously, we’ve had the strikes in America at the moment so that’s had a massive effect over here and so everything’s been dialled down. So I was just so lucky when this came up and I’m so grateful that I have the time to do it and that they’ll have me.
“I would love to do a comedy, I really would, it would be so lovely to do something funny. As you say, the storyline was so hard and it was a really sad story to do. So it would be lovely to do something a lot lighter.”
Josie Gibson and Fred Sirieix were often seen clashing over her cooking in camp. When the TV host took over from trained chef Fred, he was overly critical of her attempts to cook, mainly because she failed to keep items for stock or flavouring their rice the next day.
His criticism and anger aimed at her is thought to be one of the main reasons he was evicted as some viewers dubbed him sexist. But Fred said: “I am not sexist. I am not mean. I did not see it like that. It is not a question of sexism, it is not a question of being mean or having a go at Josie. I think she is a lovely girl. If she was offended of course I will apologise. I do not want people to feel bad and if someone thinks I did something wrong I will apologise straight away and say I am so sorry, of course.”
