Tess Daly reacts as Vernon Kay surprises his former I’m A Celebrity campmates
Vernon Kay has sent a surprise early Christmas gift to his former I’m A Celebrity campmates. The show’s 2020 winner, Giovanna Fletcher, revealed all on her Instagram account, and was clearly delighted by Vernon’s thoughtful gesture.
She wrote: “I won’t lie, although I was extremely happy to bring S Club 7 joy into camp with Reach, I was a little envious of everyone else’s luxury items – a little touch of home to gather some comfort from.
“The pictures, the posters from children and one AMAZINGLY soft cashmere blanket that Vernon’s family usually snuggle under… in true @vernonkay style he’s sent us all one of these @johnstonsofelgin blankets to cosy up under with our loved ones.
“We won’t be going out other than for a walk (if the weather permits – it’s currently pouring), so the Fletcher Family will be found under this blanket for the foreseeable. Thank you Vernon for being as thoughtful as ever!
“Full disclosure – this blanket has also been pinched to build a den… seems everything is fair game in this house.”
In response to her post, Vernon sweetly wrote: “A cashmere hug for Lady Hugger!!!” His wife, Tess Daly, also reacted: “AHHH! Those @johnstonsofelgin blankets are the BEST!” along with love heart emojis.
Vernon’s compassionate nature was evident during his stint on I’m A Celeb – and his wife of 17 years couldn’t have been prouder.
She recently told the Sun: “I really enjoyed watching his compassionate side. He’s a really kind and empathetic person and a real team player and I was just very proud of him, watching him look after everybody in camp and being that strength. And giving those lovely Vernon bear hugs we enjoy at home.”
Tess – who shares daughter Phoebe, 16, and 11-year-old Amber with Vernon – continued: “He’s just a sweetheart. That’s just him, it was nice seeing him wearing his heart on his sleeve and being himself – he couldn’t have been anything other than that, he doesn’t know how to be.”
