There were tears in the jungle on Thursday night after retired swimmer, Rebecca Adlington admitted that she has struggled with abusive comments about her looks for years.
So it came as no surprise that on Friday, the I'm A Celebrity star... the 24-year-old took a shower, choosing to cover up in a black swimsuit, while model Amy Willerton wore yet another bikini.
Rebecca's simple one-piece had two red stripes on it and thin straps, whereas Amy's two-piece made her stand out from the crowd. She wore a bold cobalt blue string bikini top and bright red bottoms.

Amy had a good scrub after taking part in the Hang Glider From Hell challenge and chatted to Rebecca who sat on a nearby rock.
'How are you feeling today,' Amy asked Rebecca.
'Yeah, good,' said Rebecca. 'Yesterday, for me, wasn’t about you at all. For me it actually felt like a bit of a therapy session yesterday. It really helped me taking to other people that are in the spotlight that are going through exactly the same. I’ve always just felt like, "Oh my god, everyone’s picking on me."'
'They do it to everyone, babe, honestly everyone. I really wouldn’t worry about it,' said Amy.
It's a good sign that the girls are getting on as the day before, tensions seemed to be rising between the girls in camp and Westlife star, Kian Egan, even remarked:
'There seemed to be a slight bit of a clash between Rebecca and Amy. You can just see a different side to people’s personalities.’

She admitted: 'It's making me very, very insecure that I have to look [a certain way]. For me, I was an athlete.
'I wasn’t trying to be a model, but pretty much every single week on Twitter I get somebody commenting on the way I look.’
