Mike Tindall shuts down I'm a Celeb 'glamour' rumours during behind the scenes video

Former England rugby star Mike Tindall quickly shut down rumours that the I'm A Celebrity camp is full of glamour following his fourth-placed finish on the ITV show.

Every year, the same questions seem to arise surrounding life in the camp when the cameras aren't rolling, suggesting campmates are whisked off to outings and have the time of their life.

However, Tindall took to Instagram to show a 'sneak peak' of the studio and behind the scene action while awaiting who would be crowned king or queen of the jungle on Sunday night.

Starting a live stream, the 44-year-old said: ""For everyone who thinks it's glamorous in I'm A Celebrity, basically, this is behind the scenes. Lots of red c**p, lots of buses, erm, there's not really anything going on."

He then showed his 355,000 followers some of the camera crew that work tirelessly behind the scene and introduced some fellow campmates to his viewers, reports the Mirror.

Speaking to Scarlette Douglas about the tents, Mike continued: "If you think it gets any more glamorous in the tents, let's have a look shall we? This is what it looks like. Yes, it's trestle tables and just seats. So it is just that.

"And then if you want to think that maybe the celebs hang out in a better place - I hate using the word celebs by the way - same."

Mike managed to grab Queen of the Jungle Jill Scott and fan favourite Corrie star Sue Cleaver before panning onto a glammed-up Boy George. Mike's journey on I'm A Celeb was filled with laughter for the fans as "Magic Mike" won the hearts of many viewers.

On his exit, Mike was greeted by his wife Zara Philips during a tight embrace on the famous bridge leaving the camp and later posted a selfie of the pair after a well-deserved and much-needed bite to eat.

"Reunited!!! [love heart emoji]," Mike began his upload caption. "Back to normality and time to eat!!! Thanks for all the kind messages! It was a blast! #imaceleb #familytime."
