James McVey’s bandmates from The Vamps insists he won’t be eating creepy crawlies while in ‘I’m A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here’.
The 24-year-old guitarist has vowed that due to his vegan beliefs he won’t be eating any meat during his stint on the jungle reality show – and singer Bradley Simpson is certain that his pal won’t be swayed by hunger while on the show.
Speaking to the Daily Star, Bradley said: "He’s not going to eat meat while he’s in there because of his beliefs. I don’t know what they’ll do if he gets to the final but I think he’s going to stick to what he believes in.
"We knew a few months ago he was going and he was cutting down what he was eating so he would be ready and it wasn’t a shock to the system."
Meanwhile, the musician is planning to propose to his long-time girlfriend Kirstie Brittain and there is the possibility he could get down on one knee when he leaves the jungle.
The ‘Can We Dance’ hitmaker was even contemplating popping the question as he leaves the camp on the exit bridge but doesn’t want to embarrass Kirstie.
Revealing she will be joining him in Australia, the hunk told the Daily Mirror newspaper: "Kirstie’s coming out halfway through anyway, so knowing that she’s a mile away will really help I think."
And asked whether or not he will be asking for her hand in marriage anytime soon, he said: "I was joking round with the other Vamps boys saying that my one luxury item should have been an engagement ring, and I could have really embarrassed her on the bridge coming out, but I’ve not had time to get it yet. That would have been a good one though."
