I'm A Celebrity: Tom Read Wilson's mum says he gets his voice from her - listen to her talk here
The star is now motoring towards the finalTom Read Wilson‘s mum has appeared on TV and insisted the I’m A Celebrity star gets his voice ‘from her’.
Juliette Cheeseman says Tom is “good at accents” but insists his speaking voice is completely natural.
Tom has now been in the jungle for almost three weeks and Juliette says the mask would have slipped by now if he was faking.
I’m A Celebrity: ‘Tom gets his voice from me’
The proud mum – who is a private tutor and nanny from Berkshire – made her comments on ITV’s Good Morning Britain.
Appearing live from Australia, where she is waiting for Tom’s jungle exit, Juliette was asked by host Charlotte Hawkins: “Is that the way he talks the whole time?
Juliette replied: “Of course it is. If it wasn’t then, by now, he would have lost it. When you are in somewhere for three weeks you’ve got to be natural and that’s just how he talks.”
I’m A Celebrity fans have been fascinated by Tom’s talking voice throughout this series of the show. But the Celebs Go Dating star wowed viewers even more when he put on several accents.
Speaking about this, Juliette added: “He gets it from me.” She added: “Tom is Tom and what you see is what you get with him.”
Tom’s sister Miranda has also spoken out about her brother. She has remained in the UK and appeared on Friday morning’s Lorraine, where she was also asked about his voice.
Miranda also insisted it was completely natural, telling host Ranvir Singh: “He’s always grown up loving language. My dad’s an English teacher and he’s followed in his footsteps.
“He’s watched musical theatre since he was little. He’s such an old soul. Since he was two, he has spoken like that.”

I’m A Celebrity: Who’s left in camp?
Tom is one of six campmates left in I’m A Celebrity 2025. He remains in the show with Lisa Riley, Angry Ginge, Aitch, Shona McGarty and Jack Osbourne.
Tonight (Friday December 5), all six celebrities face elimination in the series’ first double eviction. The two campmates who receive the fewest public votes will be sent home.
The four that are left will take on the fan favourite, Celebrity Cyclone, before someone is crowned King or Queen of the Jungle on Sunday (December 7).
Last night, Tom took on the Lethal Library Bushtucker Trial with fellow campmate Martin Kemp. The pair had to work out the titles of seven famous books before Tom had to find them in the library.
During the trial, he faced pigeons, snakes and thousands of critters – including painful green ants. One of the books was Wind in the Willows, which is set in Berkshire. Tom grew up close by and was delighted to tell hosts Ant and Dec this fact.
Tom told them: “I adore it! It is set where I grew up!”
Tom’s mum cannot believe her son has almost made it to this year’s I’m A Celebrity final. In her interview with GMB, she also said: “I couldn’t see Tom doing this. It is so out of his comfort zone, honestly. But he has really adapted to it well.”
Tom’s former campmates, Martin and Ruby Wax, are tipping him to be crowned King of the Jungle. But can he go all the way? It would certainly be “delicious” to see him win…
