MAURA Higgins has made her grand entrance into the I’m A Celeb jungle and fans have been left saying “cue the drama”.
The Love Island superstar finally put rumours of her appearance on the hit ITV show to rest tonight as she emerged on screens at the end of the episode.
The Irish beauty and TV personality Reverend Richard Coles were announced as this year’s late arrivals at the end of the show, leaving viewers in a frenzy.
Maura, 32, who catapulted to fame after appearing on the fifth series of Love Island, is set to join the rest of the cast on tomorrow night’s episode.
However, in a short clip aired tonight, the Longford native was seen preparing herself to head into the jungle.
In a blurry outline, the star applied her makeup in a hotel mirror and fixed her red trousers.
She then picked up the iconic camp hat and came into focus on screens.
Maura immediately expressed her concerns for being a late arrival into the already bonding camp.
She said: “I am absolutely petrified of the eating challenge and the one with the glass around your head with spiders in.
The funny lady joked: “I don’t want to eat testicles on TV.”
Maura added: “Even talking about them, I start to sweat. I am not a nervous person, but this will be hard.
“I am ready to step outside my comfort zone. I hope I do make myself proud and I am both excited but also very nervous, because I am scared of absolutely everything.”
The presenter also admitted she wanted to come out of the series as a “braver Maura”.
Of course, fans of the Irish star all flocked to social media to share their reactions to her arrival.
Dean wrote: “Pop open the champagne Maura Higgins is about to enter the Jungle!
Katie added: “Our queen of the jungle has arrived.”
‘SO EXCITED’
Jade laughed: “Swear Maura was dying to eat testicles on TV in love island.”
While Chloe remarked: “MAURA IS GOING IN THE JUNGLE CUE THE DRAMA.”
Erin commented: “AHHHH I’M so f***ing excited for Maura.”
And Alana exclaimed: “I missed Maura on the TV every night.”
