Gemma Collins doesn’t strike us as the sex tape type, but the star was apparently terrified a solo clip was going to surface while she was in the I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! jungle.
Luckily for The Only Way Is Essex star, we’re yet to set our eyes upon her bedroom antics – but we DID catch up with Lydia Bright, who put herself in her co-star’s shoes.
She exclusively told heatworld: “I’d be absolutely mortified! It’s just about everyone’s self-respect and privacy and also about your family and stuff.
“That’s nothing you want your family, or your dad, or your brother to see. It must be awful that some celebrities go through that but luckily it’s never been me and it won’t ever be me.
“I’ve not got anything like that. I’m cautious for a reason. I think you’ve got to be very careful nowadays especially if you’re in the public eye.”
While Lydia feels bad for Gemma and her recent struggles, she admits she doesn’t feel close enough to the reality star to offer a shoulder to cry on.
She said: “Me and Gemma, we’re friends and we’re on the show together but we don’t see each other constantly.
“There’s a 10 year age gap. She’s got all her friends, we don’t talk to each other on that level."
Arg must be relieved Lydia's not got any private pics to leak!

"People are going to see the real bare, stripped-back me. I might just become Bear Grylls, you never know."We never did get to see Gemma chowing down on a raw snake, drinking her own urine or sleeping inside a rancid camel (yep, Bear Grylls has seriously done all of those things).

"Yeah alright, I've cracked at the first hurdle. It's like the turtle and the slug or the horse and the rabbit or something, I can't remember what it is."Who could forget the age-old story of the turtle and the slug?

"If they don’t give us a treat I’m going to kill myself.”Well, the suicide threats didn’t work, but outside of the jungle is a plentiful world of treats just waiting for Gem.

"I've never been in a shower which takes so much hard work but you've just got to roll with it, like Oasis said."

"I feel like I’ve got malaria. My poo is bright fluorescent yellow, we’ve got to get out of here today.”Symptoms of malaria do not include yellow poo, constant whinging or an Essex accent, sorry Gem.

"Seriously, I'd give anything for a bit of dried fruit. Dried fruit! I'm not even asking for a ham sandwich. You know what I mean? With a packet of Quavers on the side."We’re not sure dried fruit is the best remedy for fluorescent yellow diarrhea Gem, maybe just stick to dry bread and water until the ‘malaria’ clears up.

"People that murder get treated better than this, and that's the truth. Even a murderer gets fed three times a day."Murderers also don’t get paid at least £25,000 to go on a jolly holiday to Australia either. They also tend not to have strops and quit their sentences, but who cares about the details….

"If I'm not in that camp in three minutes, I'm quitting."That’s what the helicopter was for, Gem.
