ITV I'm A Celebrity's Jill Scott tips LFC star for stint in the Australian jungle

I'm A Celebrity's Jill Scott has tipped a Liverpool FC star to enter the Australian jungle.

The Lioness was crowned Queen of the Jungle last night. The 35-year-old was interviewed on today's edition of Good Morning Britain about her stint on TV's toughest entertainment challenge.

Monday's edition of ITV's flagship daytime programme was hosted by Susanna Reid and Ed Balls. The broadcasters questioned Jill on which footballer she would like to see follow in her footsteps.

She said: "I don't think they'd get the time off football to go in to the jungle but yeah Jordan Henderson. A fellow Mackem. I think he's got a strong mindset so lets put him in the jungle. But only once he's retired."

Jill appeared on the show via satellite from the Gold Coast as she prepared to attend I'm A Celeb's wrap party. Susanna was wowed as she praised Jill's glamorous appearance.

She said: "Jill you are looking very different right now than when you were in the jungle." Susanna then joked she feels at risk as she questioned what comes next for Jill.

She said: "You're all over the papers of course, have you got plans now to go into TV presenting, do you want to do a stint on Good Morning Britain?

"I can't deny you're looking very glam, I'm feeling a little bit at risk here." However, Jill offered assurances as she said she hasn't mapped out her next move. She said: "Well this has taken two showers and two baths just to smell half decent. I haven't got any plans, once I retired I should have really had a plan in place, I didn't have one and that's how I ended up in the jungle so to speak.

"I actually don't know what I'm going to do next, but I just feel like if you give everything every single day and just try to be a good person then I'll just see what happens. But I think your job is very safe."
