HAIRLESS BUMS, NIPPLE SIZE AND CHEST WAXING.. YEEEEURGHH!
By Nicola Methven, Tv Editor
FORMER Emmerdale star Sheree Murphy left her football star husband red-faced again yesterday after describing his bottom in detail on television.
She started gushing about Harry Kewell's behind as she talked to Jenny Frost.
Their risque conversation began as they compared notes on the relative hairiness of their men.
Sheree said of the Liverpool ace: "He's not very hairy at all. He's hardly got any hair. No hair on his bum or body."
Antony protested that she was providing too much information by holding up his hand and saying sarcastically: "Thanks."
But with a dreamy expression on her face, Sheree cupped her hands in front of her and went on: "He's got the smoothest, peachiest bum ever, such a nice bum. The shape of his bum is gorgeous."
It was the third time that Sheree has embarrassed her husband during her time in the jungle.
She has already announced that he has plans to quit Liverpool because his dream is to "go and play abroad".
Things went from bad to worse for poor Harry when she informed everyone that he has stretch marks. Yesterday, however, Antony was more interested in the girls' thoughts on hairiness.
Jenny told him: "I always hated hairy chests until I went out with a guy who had one and then you like them."
He self-consciously confessed: "When I first got together with Adele I was scared to take my shirt off because I didn't think she'd like hairy chest."
The former Blue star then revealed that he'd so hated his appearance that he'd tried to remove the hair as a teenager.
"I Immac'd it once when I was about 17.
"Well, it started off as a wax but I just couldn't cope, tears were coming down my face.
"I don't want to go too crude but I've got small nipples for a bloke." Sheree told him supportively: "You don't want big dirty nipples."
Antony agreed: "It doesn't suit me having a clean chest. I look like a raw chicken."
Meanwhile, Carol Thatcher revealed that her mother Margaret is an avid fan of BBC's Saturday night show Strictly Come Dancing.
"She was enchanted. I went round on a Saturday and poured her a drink," she said.
"My father could never dance. She actually quite liked dancing so she banged on about the clothes.
"I said, 'I'll turn the sound down mum and we can make do with a Maggie commentary'."
This prompted the other contenders on I'm A Celebrity to speculate that the former Prime Minister would be keeping a close eye on her daughter in the jungle.
Jenny said: "I bet she's watching it and having a right laugh." Carol agreed but said she was likely to get a telling off for her appearance from her strict mum. She said: "I think I'll get a lecture on scruffiness. As soon as I get out, I'm going to ask for a make-over."
