"As you can imagine I was very scared after the last time I was on a big show because the fallout was not something you would want to go back to. Grace talked me into doing it. She convinced me it was the wrong attitude to have not doing it because I feared what people would think, but to do it because I would have a wonderful time."
Seann Walsh is hoping to 'create new memories' in the jungle
He added: "People have voiced their feelings about me and I am hoping they will see I am very different. I want to create new memories."
The comedian also revealed he is excited at the prospect of a digital detox, since phones are not allowed in the jungle.
Seann's partner Grace has also flown to Australia
"I won't miss my phone," he told ITV. "But I will miss Grace and our dog. Grace is over the moon though as she gets to come to Australia!"
As for being crowned King of the jungle, Seann thinks it is highly unlikely this will happen. "I would be absolutely astounded," he confessed. "I tend to be someone who doesn't think about that sort of thing. I have learnt in life to take it as it comes and maybe not expect too much.
"I want to make some new friends and new memories and have a nice time."
