Jimmy Bullard is full of surprises – first of all he was voted out of the I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here jungle, which was a big shocker (although that wasn’t really down to him) – and now he’s only gone and said he fancies Edwina Currie.
The retired footballer is impressed with the way the former MP just blurts words so freely from her mouth about what she likes to get up to in bed. Bleurgh!
He told The Sun: “Edwina’s a saucy minx. I fancy her in a strange way. She’s so open about her sex life. I was crying at stuff she came out with.”
It seems Jimmy, 36, could be in there with 68-year-old Edwina as she sees herself as a bit of a cougar.
Speaking in the I’m A Celeb Bush Telegraph about Jimmy and their fellow campmate Jake Quickenden, she said: “Since I was in my early twenties, I’ve enjoyed young, good looking men. I wonder if they’ve ever heard of cougars.”
The politician also opened up about her string of one-night stands to model Nadia Forde in a possible attempt to make her claw off her ears.
Following the conversation, Nadia said: “She’s very open with her escapades and it’s like, ‘Oh, we’re going there.’ For a Tory politician, she’s a bit kinky.”
T… M… I…

I'm A Celebrity 2014: The WORST Bushtucker Trials EVER!
1 of 8Dean Gaffney (2006)
Ex-EastEnder Dean Gaffney showed off his impressive ability to yelp like an injured animal in his 2006 trial. To be fair to the man, he did have cockroaches poured on his head, put his hands in a box of biting ants and retrieve a star from a pool of baby crocodiles.
2 of 8Gino D’Acampo (2009)
“I think I’ve got to eat some kind of weird stuff,” commented Gino when he was told he was going to do a Bushtucker Bonanza. Yep, we guess that a fermented egg, a rhino beetle, cockroach, wittchedy grub, mealworms, beach worms and crocodile tongue might be considered ‘weird’.
3 of 8Jennie Bond (2004)
Alone, wet, cold and covered with rats. Not a situation we’d like to get in any time soon, but former Royal correspondent Jennie Bond managed to last a whole 10 minutes locked in a water and rat filled coffin by humming an upbeat tune. We salute you, Ms. Bond.
4 of 8Joey Essex (2013)
Locked in a cold, dark, slimy tomb, we’d be freaking out if we were Joey in his 2013 task. But the TOWIE star powered through and managed to find all twelve hidden stars without uttering a single scream, only stopping to moan ‘This is definitely, 100% not reem,’ and to comment that the rodents were biting his ‘middle parts’.
5 of 8Mark Wright and Freddie Starr (2011)
TOWIE’s Mark and hamster-eating comedian Freddie were an oddly matched pair for the ‘Greasy Spoon Café’ culinary battle, but the resulting Bushtucker trial has to be one of our faves. The couple was challenged to dine on a spoiled egg, blended cockroaches, mealworms and mouse tails, turkey testicles, a camel’s toe and a pigs anus.
6 of 8Martina Navratilova (2008)
Tennis pro Martina impressed us all when she shared a plastic bubble helmet with a variety of jungle critters, including grasshoppers, cockroaches, stick insects, spiders and snakes. While we shuddered and hid behind our hands, Martina took it like a champ.
7 of 8Matt Willis (2006)
Poor Matt Willis proved he’s no wimp when he munched his way to victory in his Bushtucker Bonanza challenge of 2006. The McBusted star dined out on live mealworms, witchetty grubs, a kangaroo anus and a crocodile penis. Mr Willis managed the whole lot without a single retch, commenting after ‘I’ve got kangaroo anus in my teeth. It’s a really good look.’
8 of 8Kim Woodburn (2009)
Kim was submerged in a tank under water, while thousands of cockroaches and other critters were poured on her. As much as we did feel for clean freak Kim, her screeches of "Something’s nipping my bosoms" and "It's bitten my bum!" made this trial a timeless classic.
