I'm A Celeb winner Danny Jones makes grim hygiene admission after leaving the jungle

Whilst attempting to acclimatise to life as the reigning 'King of the Jungle', I'm A Celebrity champion Danny Jones has made a pretty stomach-curdling confession about his personal hygiene.

The McFly musician narrowly beat fan-favourite WAG Coleen Rooney to the crown and sceptre earlier this week (8 Dec), with Reverend Richard Coles finishing in third.

Whilst in the jungle, we got to know the father-of-one - who shares six-year-old son Cooper with wife Georgia Horsley - on a deeper level than viewers might have expected.

As well as opening up about his ongoing battle with anxiety - and in turn, inspiring young viewers across the country - Danny also revealed that he and his former bandmates previously showered together following concert performances.

Like I said, we really got to know him...

Unfortunately, however, amongst his many charming admissions and comments came one rather controversial confession he made about his personal hygiene.

After having been in the jungle for four days when the series kicked off last month, Danny admitted to his co-stars that he hadn't changed his boxer for more than three days, despite having worn them for several trials.

"I've not changed my boxers that I had a snake on," he proudly declared to the camp.

"Since it's rained I've not washed. Don’t fight it, just stink!"

He then joked: "What do spiders do? They don’t get up and shower, do they?"

Even more shocking is that viewers knew for a fact that Danny had two other spare pairs in his luggage, being that celebs are permitted to bring three sets of undergarments in total.

Thankfully, however, after being crowned this year's series winner, the 38-year-old has now claimed he's finally changed his boxers.

Sharing a snap from the jacuzzi of the plush Aussie hotel that contestants reside in when the show comes to an end - prior to the much-loved 'reunion' episode airing next week - Danny made his relieving admission.

"Cough cough *King’s voice* Dear loyal subjects, I can decree that one has changed one’s boxers…" he teased.

"Thank you everyone for voting, it truly means the world. I’ll see you all very soon".

It's not just his stinky underpants that have thankfully gotten the chop since Danny was crowned, however, as whilst catching up with ITV's Lorraine Kelly video video-link yesterday, he showed off his freshly-shaved face.

Joining him for the interview, his wife Georgia told viewers: "I mean it’s weird, it’s weird seeing him.

"He came back with a full beard and I’ve never seen him like that before so that was different but then he decided to shave it into a handle bar moustache."

Lorraine then teased: "Right I’m not sure about that but never mind," before Danny jumped in: "She wasn’t sure either Lorraine, it wasn’t getting me anywhere."
