She revealed on radio last week that she had a conversation with Barry in the jungle, who had just separated from his wife Sophie at the time, about having kids.

โ€œHe was telling me how he wants children,โ€ Lauren said on the radio show.

โ€œI said โ€˜how many do you want?โ€™ And he said โ€˜fourโ€™ and I said โ€˜me too, maybe Iโ€™ll give them to you one day โ€“ just kidding.โ€™ โ€œ

In fact, viewers may remember Barry having very little patience for Lauren.

The performer blames it on the jungle conditions.

โ€œThere was nothingโ€ฆ Weโ€™re so mentally and physically exhausted, you donโ€™t like anyone. You donโ€™t even like yourself.โ€
