Coleen Rooney, the runner-up on this year's I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here!, recently shared her experience of having to sleep outside of the camp due to an emergency evacuation with her fellow campmates. The episode, which aired on Sunday night, saw the Wagatha Christie icon come in second place to McFly musician Danny Jones.
Along with Danny and Strictly star Reverend Richard Coles, Coleen toughed it out in the jungle for 23 days, outlasting other celebrities such as Oti Mabuse, Maura Higgins, and GK Barry. However, in the end, Danny was ultimately crowned this year's King of the jungle.
During an interview discussing her time on the show, Coleen reflected on the highs and lows of this year's competition. One of the toughest moments came when the camp had to be evacuated due to extreme storms in the Australian jungle. The heavy rainfall had caused nearby roads and fields to be submerged, forcing the celebrities to seek shelter elsewhere.
Speaking to The Mirror after her exit, Coleen revealed that she had a rough start due to caffeine and sugar withdrawals, but as things got better, the weather got worse. She also described one night when they were all woken up in the early hours of the morning to go to the Bush Telegraph because of a storm. Coleen and fellow campmate Alan were asleep and she recalls thinking that this wasn't what she had expected the jungle to be like.
In another part of the interview, Coleen shared that she almost quit after the first week because she missed her family so much. She even had a pillow with her that had pictures of her husband Wayne Rooney and their sons on it, which she used to cry on when she felt homesick. However, she pushed through and continued on with her tasks, learning to be patient and to think about herself.
Although she didn't win the jungle crown, Coleen's experience on the show has taught her a lot. She mentioned that she rarely gets bored, but the jungle gave her time to think about her strengths and weaknesses. She also said that she will try to be more patient in the future and that it is okay to focus on oneself.
As for what's next for Coleen, she has become a fan favorite and there have been rumors of a £1,000,000 contract with ITV. However, Coleen stated that she hasn't heard anything about it and won't until she returns to the UK. She is looking forward to spending Christmas with her family and then in January, she will sit down with her team to discuss her future plans.

Overall, Coleen's journey on I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here! was not always smooth sailing, but she showed resilience and determination throughout. She may not have won the crown, but she has won the hearts of viewers and has gained valuable lessons that she will carry with her in the future.
