I'm A Celebrity star and DJ Toby Anstis was once rumoured to be dating Priscilla Presley after they shared a light peck after enjoying a cosy dinner together in 2013. In a new interview, he finally revealed the nature of their "friendly dinner" after meeting through Warwick Davis.
The 54-year-old was introduced to Priscilla when she was in panto with the actor at Wimbledon at the time. DJ Toby and a friend went to watch the star perform on stage and a someone soon asked him if he wanted to meet the 79-year-old ex-wife of legendary singer, Elvis Presley.
Speaking on best's Suddenly Single, he said: "So I went and saw her and I jokingly said 'it must be quite lonely being here, let's go and have dinner one night' and she said yes. So we all went out two nights later, a lovely friendly dinner.
"I said 'I can see some paps outside, so we shouldn't go out right now', but she said no, let's go. So we went out there and she gave me a little kiss on the cheek and got in a car and went home.
"That was it. It was just a really lovely evening. We all went out again a couple of weeks later, but nothing went on at all - but the way they pictured it, it all went bonkers."
He continued: "My manager rang me and said, 'have you seen the papers!'. There were chat shows in America saying Toby will you come over. 'No!'. The incredible thing was sitting with Priscilla and her talk to us about Elvis and their life in Graceland. I had a bit of an out of body experience.
"I'm with Priscilla and she's talking about The King. I count myself lucky to have met her as she's a charming, lovely woman but that was that."
Speaking about her in 2013, Toby admitted he 'fancied the pants off her', revealing he thought she was 'beautiful'. He went on to praise the star, adding she looked 'exquisite', 'spoke with such poise' and has 'so much charisma'.
While she was in London at the time, he admitted they went on two more times - once to Buddha Bar and another time to Dover Street Arts Club to 'dance the entire night'.
Toby said: "We were out till about 3.30am and she had a show at lunchtime the next day so she was getting worried. That didn't stop us doing tequila shots at gone midnight. It was brilliant.
'She did mention me going out to see her in the States and offered to show us around Graceland personally – that would be ridiculous.'

Peter Andre, 52, reveals downside to age gap relationship with wife Emily, 35
Peter Andre has defended the 16-year age gap in his relationship with wife Emily MacDonagh – but one incident that showed their generational gap still makes them laugh. The musician and TV star, 52, married doctor Emily, 35, in 2015, soon after welcoming children Amelia, 11, Theo, nine, and one-year-old Arabella. Peter also has two children, Junior, 19, and Princess, 17, with former wife Katie Price. Peter and Emily have experienced some backlash against their 16-year age gap, which the I'm A Celebrity contestant defended in a new interview. In his column for New! magazine, Peter discussed Stephen Fry, 67, speaking about the age gap in his marriage with Elliott Spencer, 38, and how Peter and Emily's age difference 'works' for them. 'It all depends on the relationship, how the partners are with each other, and how they view things, I think. There's a 16-year gap between me and Emily, and it really works for us,' he wrote. However, he did muse over one incident where their generational gap was very noticeable. 'There's one thing we do laugh about, though… We were at the Pride of Britain awards one year and Jon Bon Jovi came over to chat. I've met him many times over the years and he's a lovely person,' he continued. After the introduction, Peter was shocked to discover Emily had no idea who the legendary rock star was, asking her husband 'What's a Bon Jovi?' 'We laughed about that a lot afterwards! It's in those moments we may realise the age gap – usually with music and films – but in general, we love the same things. I think it's what works for you in a relationship. Who are we to judge?' he said. Peter, who is currently on screens in controversial thriller comedy Jafaican, met Emily in 2012, with them tying the knot three years later. He previously discussed not opting for a pre-nuptial agreement before tying the knot, saying: 'I think it does depend on upbringing. So some cultures think that you should always keep your own money, some think you should all be together. 'But as you grow older, you start to figure it out yourself. I know with Emily at the start I had different views to what I've got now. I mean, we don't have a prenup. We've got children together.' More Trending Last year, Peter said he and Emily were 'pretty sure' Arabella would be their last child, with the singer speaking out numerous times about the prospect of having a vasectomy. 'I appeared on Loose Women last week to promote the Frankie Valli tour and one of the topics we discussed is whether a man should get a vasectomy,' he wrote back in February. 'Having children is a big decision. We frequently expect the woman to have to find a way and take measures not to become pregnant, but actually I realise that us men have a responsibility too. 'The problem is, like many, I'm a bit scared of having that kind of procedure. I know, call me a wimp. Who knows? Never say never, I guess.' Got a story?
