As the anticipation builds and the I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here stars brave the challenges of the jungle, their loved ones begin to make the trek to Australia to offer support. Among the first arrivals at Brisbane airport was none other than Nick Pickard’s girlfriend, Sarah Corrin, shedding light on the woman beside the veteran Hollyoaks actor.
In high spirits despite the long flight, Sarah radiated warmth as she navigated through arrivals, luggage in tow. Speaking with MailOnline, she shared her enthusiasm for seeing Nick take on his first Bushtucker Trial, a spectacle yet to grace the screen for the longest-serving soap actor on Hollyoaks.
“I’ve still yet to see him do a Bushtucker Trial, and all my friends and family are like, ‘What shall we do?’ And I keep saying, ‘Vote! Vote,’ and people are like you’re not meant to vote him in but I think we are! I think he’d enjoy it,” Sarah expressed with a twinkle in her eye.
Nick Pickard, who has portrayed the iconic Tony Hutchinson for 28 years, stands as one of the celebrities yet to partake in the notorious Bushtucker Trials. Sarah believes the I’m A Celebrity setting is perfect for showcasing the multifaceted personality of the 48-year-old actor.
“It’s nice people get to see the Nick part of him and not just Tony. But you haven’t seen all of him yet. I’ve wanted him to do it for years. He’s very competitive and a good team player, so that’s why I’ve always said, out of all the things he could do, I’m A Celebrity would be a good one for him.”
The couple shares a life together in Liverpool, maintaining a relationship that has gracefully stayed away from the public eye. Sarah is candid about Nick’s demeanor in the jungle, emphasizing his positivity but revealing a not-so-hidden trait when it comes to food.
“I’m really surprised I haven’t seen him have a hunger tantrum. He is the most positive upbeat person you’ll ever meet, but don’t mess with him and his food.”
As the I’m A Celebrity journey unfolds, Sarah Corrin stands as a beacon of support for Nick Pickard, adding a personal touch to the unfolding drama within the jungle. The viewers eagerly await the moment when Nick takes on the Bushtucker Trials, and with Sarah’s encouragement, it promises to be a highlight for fans of the enduring Hollyoaks star.
