Danny Jones has been charming viewers on this year's I'm A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here!—but it seems the McFly singer may have told a little fib to the show's producers about one of his supposed biggest fears.
The revelation comes after Friday's High Street of Horrors Bushtucker Trial, where Danny faced his fears in a cramped box filled with snakes. One even made its way into his shorts, providing a moment of pure jungle drama.
However, Danny's wife, Georgia Horsley, has now exposed that her husband actually lied about his fear of snakes to ITV producers before entering the jungle.

"He's lied and said he's scared of snakes. Bulls***. World exclusive: bulls***," Georgia told host Hannah Cooper. "So, everyone vote for the tasks that don't involve snakes, please! He's not scared of snakes, but he said he is—that's a double bluff."
She added, "He's now going to get tasks with snakes… I think they all think Danny's a really genuine guy!" Georgia also warned that one of Danny's greatest challenges could be his temperament when tired or hungry—two things bound to happen as the show progresses.

Georgia also let slip another of her husband's quirks: his unusual bedtime routine, which he can't maintain in the jungle.
"This man has never fussed so much over the fact that he can't tape his mouth in the jungle," she revealed. "He tapes his mouth at night. It's meant to have many, many health benefits… It's literally like a piece of gaffer tape, like a massive plaster over your lips."

The couple met in 2009, and Danny popped the question during a romantic trip abroad in 2013. They tied the knot the following year in a beautiful ceremony.
