Scarlett Moffatt‘s motive for doing I’m A Celebrity South Africa is bound to leave fans scratching their heads when they see this unearthed picture.

The former Queen of the Jungle, 35, is now trying her luck at being crowned this year’s I’m A Celebrity Legend.

Last night, she was seen sympathy gagging while watching newcomers Gemma Collins and Craig Charles take on a vile eating challenge.

Scarlett has also been getting to know her new campmates. She has even spoken candidly on camera to Sinitta and Ashley Roberts about her fertility struggles.

But before heading into Kruger National Park, where I’m A Celebrity South Africa is filmed, the mum-of-0ne made an admission.

She told the cameras her real reason for signing up to the ITV spin-off series.

“It would just be so wonderful to show my little boy Jude what brave looks like,” Scarlett said. “And also I would love a new bathroom if I’m honest.”

Scarlett and her fiancé, Scott Dobinson, bought their “forever home” in 2020. They have spent the last six years renovating it and it is stunning.

The couple have frequently flung open the doors of their house for ‘at home’ photo shoots with glossy magazines, while also showcasing their upgrades on social media.

In March 2021, Scarlett shared a selection of pictures of their home’s interior on Instagram. She captioned it: “Thought I’d show you lovelies all the updates we’ve made so far on our house. We about half way there.

“I’ve learnt that moving home is both equal measures of fun & stress. I’ve tried to buy from as many local/small businesses as possible #home #love #interior #renovation.”

Scroll through the pictures below to see Scarlett’s current bathroom:

One of the pictures is of Scarlett’s stunning and ultra modern bathroom. It has a freestanding bath with statement mixer tap, a flat panel towel radiator in chrome and square sink and wooden vanity unit.

The toilet is wall mounted with an inset flush on the wall and the entire bathroom is finished in slate tiles, both on the floor and halfway up the walls.

Scarlett had accessorised with small succulent plants in grey vases, soft grey towels and a lit candle.

Commenting, one fan wrote: “Stunning, just stunning.” Another added: “It’s beautiful Scarlett.” And a third penned: “Can I move in too?”

Inside Scarlett’s ‘forever home’

Scarlett and Scott’s house is located in County Durham. It also has a huge kitchen dinner, plush lounge and even a ‘geek room’ full of Star Wars, Lego and War Hammer memorabilia.

The couple also have a games room, complete with a grey pool table and giant cinema screen.

Outside, they are surrounded by rolling fields. Scarlett previously told OK! magazine: “We chose to move to this house because of the beautiful view. We wanted the outside to feel like it’s on the outside.”

Scarlett originally hails from the North East of England. She decided to relocate back up there after deciding London wasn’t for her.

Her house looks pretty perfect to us, including that bathroom!
