Nicola McLean has revealed she still regrets turning down a date with Justin Timberlake and admits shes a lot wilder now than she was in her younger days. The former Im A Celebrity Get Me Out of Here! star, 44, opened up about her infamous Playboy Mansion trip, where she says she was surprisingly tame.

Yeah, I'm a lot more wilder as I've got older. I used to be boring. I went to the Playboy Mansion and drank water, but there's no chance I would do that now. I'd be in the Grotto, Nicola told the Daily Star in collaboration with WhichBingo.

But its not just her antics she regrets, as the reality star also admitted to turning down one of the worlds biggest pop stars for a boyfriend she didnt even like.

I turned down Justin Timberlake for a boyfriend that I didn't even like. I didn't even like the boyfriend, but we've all been there, she laughed. But at least I can say I'm a loyal kind of gal. But I do kick myself daily.

Nicola, who first rose to fame in her Page 3 days before becoming a reality TV favourite, has clearly embraced her bolder, more adventurous side in recent years.

While she may kick herself over lost opportunities, she insists her wild streak now is all part of enjoying life on her own terms.

I wouldnt do anything differently now, she added. Im more confident, I have more fun, and I dont hold back. The past is the past, but Im certainly making up for it these days.

From Playboy Mansion to the jungle, Nicola McLean proves shes still bold and unapologetically herself.

This is why she believes she will make a great addition to the ITV jungle once again as she bids for a spot on the next series of All Stars after failing to land a spot again this year.

I think Im still one of the only people thats been in this industry, for as long as I have, that doesnt self-edit, she said. They know theyre gonna get fun from me. They need to get me on the next one.
