I'M A Celeb star Kate Garraway is planning to sneakily smuggle banned items into camp – using a secret pocket on her bikini.
The 52-year-old presenter had the secret hiding place installed by Good Morning Britain's wardrobe team, her co-star Ben Shephard has revealed.
Celebrities are banned from smuggling anything into camp – being permitted just one luxury item each.
But Ben, 44, had no problem blowing Kate's plan apart right in front of ITV bosses.
Speaking on GMB today, he said: "When I left on Friday, Debbie, who does everybody's wardrobe, was perfecting a little pocket for something or other into the bikini."
Co-host Charlotte Hawkins told him: "Don't say that, it could be contraband."
But Ben continued: "Exactly, that's what I was thinking. I think she was smuggling… well, I don’t know exactly what it is.
"A bit of make-up maybe? Or some spices? Because someone said if you look after the cooking… a little bit of seasoning?"
Kate is currently holed up in the luxury Versace hotel on Australia's Gold Coast ahead of the show starting on Sunday.
But it's unlikely she'll thank Ben for revealing her secret when she gets back.
Many of Kate's other colleagues proved more supportive, with "VOTE KATE" messages plastered on cameras around the studio.
She will be starring on I'm A Celeb alongside Caitlyn Jenner, Nadine Coyle, Ian Wright, James Haskell, Jacqueline Jossa and Roman Kemp.
The TV star has already found herself in trouble with the authorities for carrying things she shouldn't – being pulled aside by airport officials in Brisbane for packing too much fake tan.
She said: “I bought some fake tan in Abu Dhabi as I thought best to get that tan all over every part of my body, and they wouldn’t let me through customs.
"I had to had it put in its own special box. I was held up by my fake tan. I've got a lot of swimming costumes. It's quite hard as I've got bits of my body that I'm trying to cover up.
"In fact, a lot of my body I'm trying to cover up. I was looking for one that starts up here and goes down to my ankles.”
But she says she gave her GMB colleagues – including Susanna Reid and Ranvir Singh – a glimpse of the revealing outfits before she flew.
I'm A Celeb returns to ITV on Sunday night.
