It's an ongoing health issue for her
Steph McGovern has revealed she has been asked to participate in ITV's I'm A Celebrity multiple times but declined due to a hidden health issue.
The 40-year-old TV personality admitted the diet of rice and beans, that the competing celebrities notoriously live off during their time on the show, would cause issues with her digestive system. Irritable bowel syndrome is a common condition affecting the digestive system. It causes symptoms such as stomach cramps, bloating, diarrhoea and constipation. Steph said while she isn't scared of the unusual things she could be faced with eating on the show, she would be worried how her body might react given her condition.
Steph has previously opened up about her health struggles, revealing that her IBS saw her loose weight and even drop a dress size due to the symptoms. She told our colleagues at The Mirror: "I’ve had IBS for as long as I can remember, but I just assumed it was one of those things you either have or you don’t have and there isn’t any cure.
