Refusing to confirm whether or not she was taking part in the ITV1 reality show, the former Coronation Street star was reportedly overheard branding the situation 'irritating'.

The Sun newspaper quotes Helen being overheard as saying: 'I’ve just got off a two-day flight and I’ve got people coming towards me.'
The blonde bombshell was then whisked away to her five-star hotel in a waiting car, where she will be based until she enters the jungle later this week.

Helen - who shot to fame as a child when she landed the role of Rosie Webster in Corrie - recently opened up about her battle with depression and panic attacks.
Speaking to Reveal magazine this week, she said: 'I’ve suffered from depression. It was the main reason I had to leave Coronation Street. I was down and it was very intense - I don’t think I was very well.'
When she enters the Australian jungle later this week, Helen will be joined by the likes of boxer David Haye, fellow soap babe Charlie Brooks, former Pussycat Dolls singer Ashley Roberts and Made In Chelsea's Hugo Taylor.
