Coleen Rooney has insisted that small food portions won’t bother her when she takes part on I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here!

The WAG, 38 – who is reportedly being paid £1.5million to go on the show – has told ahead of the stint how she will be fine with the lack of sustenance as she ‘often misses a meal’ amid her busy life.

She told ITV in her campmate interview before the show starts on Sunday: ‘I don’t think small portions will be as hard as other things. 

‘I am quite peтιтe and I do run around some days and miss a meal. But not on purpose, more because I am so busy. 

‘When that happens, I don’t get hangry.’

Coleen Rooney has insisted that small food portions won’t bother her when she takes part on I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here!

The WAG, 38 – who is reportedly being paid £1.5million to go on the show – has told ahead of the stint how she will be fine with the lack of sustenance as she ‘often misses a meal’ amid her busy life

Describing herself as a team player who will help with any job, she won’t, however, be putting herself forward as chef of the camp. 

‘I would not like to give someone food poisoning’, she explained. ‘Yes I cook at home, but what you get given is not what you cook every day.’

Also in the interview Coleen gave a subtle nod to her Wagatha Christie trial against fellow WAG Rebekah Vardy.

She was asked ‘Aside from your family, who/what else will you miss in camp?’ – to which she answered: ‘Aside from my family and friends, my phone and a pen and notepad. I love jotting things down.’

Previously Coleen has told how she concocted her bombshell Wagatha statement with a pencil, pad and rubber.

Their trial – which Coleen won – came after a widely-shared social media post in October 2019, in which Coleen said she had carried out a ‘sting operation’ and accused Rebekah of leaking ‘false stories’ about her private life to the press.

Rebekah lost the libel case and was ordered to pay up to £1.5million towards Coleen’s legal fees.

Coleen has previously revealed that her plan to publicly share the leaker on Instagram in October 2019, was all her own.

She told ITV in her campmate interview before the show starts on Sunday: ‘I don’t think small portions will be as hard as other things.I am quite peтιтe and I do run around some days and miss a meal’ (seen heading to a workout)

The mother-of-four has always had a toned physique and is regularly seen heading to the gym in Cheshire

She is often seen heading to a workout near her home in figure-hugging gym gear showing off her frame 

She said: ‘In the night I started thinking about what I was going to do. I just wanted these stories to stop.’

But did she do a classic firing up of the Notes app at 3am?

She explained: ‘No. I like a pen and paper – a pencil and rubber, actually, so I can rub it out. So I started writing what I wanted to say and then the next morning I put it out there. That was the start of something that I would never have expected.’

Coleen added that she didn’t tell a soul what she was about to do. ‘No. [The part] my friends and family were most surprised at me [for was] putting the post up.’

Coleen was awarded costs by the court and £800,000 of the total amount due was payable immediately.

Rebekah was said to have scored one of the worst own goals in British legal history after a High Court judge dismissed her evidence as ‘evasive or implausible’ and accused her of deliberately deleting WhatsApp messages central to the case.

Her agent, Caroline Watt, was also accused of intentionally dropping her phone in the North Sea.

On Monday Coleen was pictured at the airport as she prepared to jet off to Australia for her stint in I’m A Celeb.
