TV star Katie inquired if she still communicated with her 2024 camp buddies.
The 47-year-old asked: 'Have you kept in contact, because this is another thing, when I've done Big Brother and all of that, you're like, Yeah, I'll stay in contact...
"But you know the ones you'll stay in contact with and some you just know… in the beginning you text and then…'
GK admitted: 'We had a group chat. It has died down slightly as you can imagine, it's died down."

She added: 'But I still keep in contact with the Rev [Richard Coles] - and Dean [McCullough] I still keep in contact with a little bit, but mainly the Rev and Melvin [Odoom]."
The 25-year-old concluded: 'I keep in contact with Melvin quite a lot.'
The internet personality entered the I'm A Celeb Jungle last year and quickly became a fan favourite and ended up placing fifth.
Following her TV stint she went on to make multiple appearances on daytime TV show Loose Women.

Back in April, the group was still active and radio star Dean lifted the lid on what went on in the cast's infamous WhatsApp thread.
Before the group fell apart, he said: "No, no one's left. Everyone's in it. Everyone's chatting away.

"I just love it because you'll just wake up one morning, and there'll just be a picture of Coleen [Rooney] on the school run with the kids, or Richard the other day sent us a picture of him at 10 o'clock in the morning in full fancy dress.
"He was dressed as a nun. Everyone's in it, of course, and excited to meet up again."

While love is in bloom for GK and her footballer girlfriend Ella Rutherford, McFly star Danny's marriage to his wife Georgia has been rocked since appearing on the show.
Singer Danny, 39, has been trying to move on from the fall out from his "drunken kiss" with Maura Higgins, 34, at the Brit Awards.
The pair starred alongside GK in the 2024 series of I'm A Celeb.
Wife and podcaster Georgia - who briefly moved out of the family home following the kiss scandal - was reportedly "furious" at the way the Star Girl singer had handled the aftermath of the scandal.

A few of the campmates are set to be working together soon, which could make things very awkward for Maura and Danny.
Georgia broke her silence on social media after three months on from the kiss and posted her first photo of her husband in a Father's Day tribute.

Christine McGuinness opens up on her sexuality as she talks about JoJo Siwa and Chris Hughes' relationship
In a recent interview, JoJo opened up on her relationship with Chris CHRIS & TELL Christine McGuinness opens up on her sexuality as she talks about JoJo Siwa and Chris Hughes' relationship Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) CHRISTINE McGuinness has opened up on her sexuality, while talking about JoJo Siwa and Chris Hughes' relationship.

I've sort of gone through, not that situation, but similar" Credit: Instagram / itsjojosiwa And Christine, 37, who was married to TV presenter Paddy McGuinness for 11 years, also stated that her "sexuality is not a secret". Now, the mum-of-three has backed US and Big Brother star JoJo Siwa, saying she shouldn't have to 'explain' her sexuality. The Dance Moms star, 22, recently confirmed that she's in a relationship with Big Brother co-star Chris Hughes. And after revealing she was no longer a lesbian in the CBB compound during the show's live stream she said she now wants to identify as queer. Christine said: 'Let them live. I've sort of gone through, not that situation, but similar. 'Being in the public eye and feeling the need to explain your sexuality which I don't think anyone needs to at all. JoJo is so young, she's growing and learning like we all are. Life changes.' Christine continued to tell the Situationship podcast : 'One of the best things about being an adult is that you can change your mind at any time. JoJo, I think she's always been open about the fact she's queer and that's how she refers to herself. 'She loves whoever she loves and it's not necessarily about gender. Although I don't put a label on myself, it kind of is how I feel. ''Because she's been out there so much as an advocate for the LGBTQIA+ community, I think some of them feel let down that she's now… JoJo Siwa says she'll NEVER break up with Chris Hughes saying their relationship is 'earthquake proof' 'I just think, it's not anybody's business. It's called private life for a reason. People think you're in the public eye and we're entitled to know what you're up to. I've had it the last couple of years and it's not nice.' The star ended by saying: 'Sexuality has been a big part of it and it shouldn't be. Two people have met and they're really happy and they're exploring whether it's a friendship or a relationship.' During a private chat in the bedroom on Big Brother, JoJo confessed: "I feel so queer," as co-star Danny Beard then responded: "I'm queer!" And in a recent interview, she told how the phrase "encompasses how I am, and who I am". JoJo Siwa and Kath Ebbs' relationship We look back at JoJo Siwa's romance with Kath Ebbs: JoJo Siwa went public with hers and Kath Ebbs' relationship in January 2025. The Dance Moms star had been introduced to 27-year-old Australian content creator Kath by a mutual friend called G-Flip six months earlier. JoJo had split with her girlfriend Dakayla Wilson in November 2024 and it is believed she hooked up romantically with Kath soon after. Speaking in March at the 36th Annual GLAAD Media Awards, JoJo said of her relationship: 'I am so happy. I am in a very mature relationship, and it's beautiful. It's taught me so much about life. 'It's taught me so much about love and respect, and it's a beautiful thing. 'It's different in more ways than I can count. I wouldn't even know what to say the biggest is 'cause just everything is so different and special.' Kath even claimed they had talked about marriage together. However, JoJo's romance with Kath abruptly hit the skids on April 25, 2025, at the Celebrity Big Brother wrap party. JoJo dumped Kath at the bash after spending 19 days in the CBB house - where she had grown close to Love Island star Chris Hughes. She added: "I do live this very, very big public life that has so many eyeballs on it, and it can get really hard to navigate. "But I'm also living a human life. You can't help who you love." The term queer is defined by LGBTQ charity Stonewall as "a term used by those wanting to reject specific labels of sexual orientation and/or gender identity". 5 Christine recently revealed how she has dated girls since she was a teenager Credit: BBC
