I’m A Celebrity’s Toff explains why her confidence has been “knocked”

Jungle heartache for the popular contestant

We weren’t exactly sure about Toff’s relationship status when she entered the I’m A Celebrity jungle.

She said she was single, but reports suggested otherwise, claiming she was still very much together with boyfriend James Middleton.

But last night in the camp, during a conversation with soon-to-be-evicted Vanessa White, Toff came clean about her relationship status and revealed the sad effects the breakup had on her.

During a conversation about New Year’s Eve and plans for 2018, Vanessa asked Toff what she was likely to get up to.

The socialite replied: “I was meant to be going to South Africa with my ex-boyfriend but we broke up.

“I’ve thought about it, but I just wanted to use this to get my confidence back up.”

She went on to explain that her relationship may have been damaged by her career, confessing: “It was great and then he… it went wrong and maybe I work too much, and my work is so difficult.

“My confidence was knocked so much, it happened so soon before I came in here, honestly, a few days before I left.

“I want my confidence to come back, I want to be exactly who I was before. I think I’m so young.”

Vanessa reassured her, saying: “This is the best thing you could have done… my boyfriend was a bit older than me, we got together when I was 21… now I plan to go travelling on my own.”

This struck Toff as a good idea, as she excitedly replied: “God, I need to do that.”

A source told the Sun about the split: “Toff wanted to be single for the jungle so she had no ties back at home.

“She’s broken up with him before so this time around wasn’t that hard.”
