Danny Miller’s I’m A Celeb dilemma
Danny and his fiancée Steph Jones welcomed their first child at the end of October—just three weeks before he headed into isolation for I’m A Celeb. In his pre-castle interviews, Danny was open about the fact that he had made the tough decision to go on I’m A Celeb at such an early stage in his son’s life because the fee would then allow him to take a year off work and spend time with his son. So how does he feel about the decision now that he’s spent over three weeks away?
Danny Miller opens up about missing son
Appearing on Good Morning Britain on Monday morning, Danny admitted that he still hadn’t been reunited with baby Albert. He said:
Fortunately for him, he has no idea but fortunately for me, I have missed him. He won't know but I certainly have. I'll spend the rest of my life making sure I make it up to him... Albert is six and a half weeks now. I've not seen him yet, obviously I've stayed here in Wales and I've done the interviews. I'm waiting to go back today to see them, I can't wait to put him in my arms and see him again.
We’re sure it will be an emotional reunion!
