I’m A Celebrity’s Marvin Humes said seeing his wife Rochelle in the jungle reminded him of their wedding day.
The JLS member, 38, had been away from Rochelle and his three children – Alaia-Mai, 10, Valentina Raine, six, and Blake Hampton, three – for four weeks when she made a surprise visit to the camp, ahead of his elimination on Friday.
Marvin said: ‘When Roch came in yesterday it was a feeling I’d never experienced before in my life. I was shocked, I couldn’t believe it. I was so emotional.
‘Seeing Rochelle in camp reminded me of our wedding day and seeing Rochelle at the end of the aisle. That feeling of love for my wife.
‘Those weeks apart make you so grateful for what you have got. Seeing her in that red chair, I had no idea, I thought I was going to do some random challenge.

‘I did not want to let her go. The timing was perfect and it gives you a boost to carry on but I just wanted to leave and be with her.’
Though the singer hadn’t seen or spoken to his family for weeks, he did manage to communicate with them.
Each time Ant and Dec entered the camp to announce which celebrity was doing a Bushtucker Trial or being eliminated, the singer would bang his chest four times.
Viewers picked up on this secret signal, but couldn’t figure out its meaning. After his departure, Marvin confirmed he did that action to tell his family he was thinking of them.
The star was the sixth contestant to be eliminated from the show last night after 20 days in the jungle which left him covered in scars from green ant bites.
After leaving, Marvin tucked into a full English breakfast on site before Facetiming his children.
He said: ‘Valentine is only six and she burst into tears when she saw me. And then I started crying. I’m not normally emotional like this but this experience heightens everything.
‘When I spoke to A and V because Blake was in bed and they were both crying, Rochelle and I were crying. We were blubbering messes.’

Marvin continued: ‘We wanted to come up with something so they knew I was thinking of them.
‘Every day in the Bush Telegraph I was talking about them and giving them shout-outs but I don’t think any of that made the edit.
‘I needed to do something to show them Daddy was thinking of them.’
