Holly Willoughby reveals she felt safer in crime-ridden Costa Rican jungle with Bear Grylls than home after kidnap plot

TV’S Holly Willoughby felt safer in the narco state of Costa Rica while filming her new show than she did in the UK following the plot to kill her.

She made Celebrity Bear Hunt in the Central American country where the number of drug-related killings, hijackings and other crimes are sky high.

But Holly says she found it an escape after the whirlwind of attention around her at the time.

That came after Holly quit This Morning in October 2023 when she learned about 37-year-old security guard Gavin Plumb’s horrific plot to kidnap and murder her.

Holly, 43, said: “It was just quite nice to be immersed in that and being away from everything, being that much in the jungle, in nature, where your phone doesn’t work and being disconnected from stuff.

“And actually, in some ways, it felt safer being there than it did being back here.”

The eight-part Netflix series, streaming from today, had a special screening last night in Leicester Square in London’s West End.

The show features a group of famous faces — including Mel B, Lottie Moss, Una Healy, Boris Becker and Shirley Ballas — who have to evade capture by survival expert Bear Grylls.

Holly added: “I was standing next to Bear Grylls, I felt totally safe. It doesn’t get much safer. I’m like, ‘Don’t tell me (about the dangers here) please don’t tell me’.”

Speaking about Plumb, who was jailed for life with a 16-year minimum term last year, Holly said: “When something like that happens, you have a decision to make.

“You either decide, ‘Right, I can take this on board and it can absolutely affect all aspects of my life’. Or I can make a choice to go, ‘Let’s focus on everything that’s positive and good’.”

She also said that signing up for Celebrity Bear Hunt felt like the start of a new chapter for her.

The telly favourite added: “I’d just got to that stage in my life where I thought, ‘I want to try something new’. I was nervous about it, because it was a real departure from what I normally do.

“Everything you do and everything that feels new always feels like a new chapter.”

It is also the first time she has presented solo for some time.

But she said: “Really, I never feel like I’m on my own, because you’re either talking to the camera, which feels like you’re talking to someone, or you’re with the celebrities like I am on this.

“I always try to find a connection somewhere.”

Love Island legend reveals he pulled out of All Stars TWO days before show kicked off

LOVE Island legend Scott van-der-Sluis has confirmed he pulled out of the current run of All Stars with just two days to go.

The star rose to fame on the tenth series of the dating show and quickly followed it up with two more stints on other editions of the programme.

Mere weeks after being dumped from the villa the first-time around, Scott took part in Love Island USA before also going on to compete on the US based spin-off Love Island Games just weeks after that.

It saw Scott compete in three series of the programme within six months but since then he has stayed far away from the franchise.

However, now the Welsh goalkeeper has confessed that he was lined up to take part in this year’s All Stars edition of the show but chose to drop out of the line-up with just two days to go.

Speaking on his Snapchat story, Scott said: “I was going to do [All Stars].

“I pulled out two days before the show started for various reasons.

“I sat down with my family and there was quite a few reasons why I decided to go against it.

“But I was on FaceTime to [Luca] every day for about two months straight before he went on.

“He had lost [access to] his phone by the time I’d pulled out so he doesn’t actually know that I’m [not] going in there.

“He is still expecting me to go in!”

Had Scott entered the villa, it could have been a chance for him to attempt to rekindle things with his former villa love, Catherine Agbaje.

Scott and Catherine had a connection during their first stint on the show and the TV beauty is currently taking part in the programme.

It left fans aghast that it could have been a chance to see the pair reunited.

One fan said: “So you’re telling me we were robbed off a Scott & Catherine agaiiiinnn.”

Another added: “That’s so annoying we could’ve had him and catherine.”

Before a third wrote: “Honestly I think of a lot of Luca constantly reassuring Catherine was fueled by the knowledge that he thought Scott was coming in.”

Taylor Swift is ‘desperate not to be center of attention at Super Bowl’ as plans to help Travis Kelce focus are revealed

IT’S hard to be low-key when you’re one of the most famous people on earth.

The sporting world will be tuning into the Super Bowl this weekend to see if superstar quarterback Patrick Mahomes can land a historic three-peat for the Kansas City Chiefs.

SHINING SPOTLIGHT

But, of course, plenty of cameras will be trained on the New Orleans Superdome posh seats where Taylor Swift will be cheering on boyfriend Travis Kelce with some well-heeled pals.

Wherever Taylor goes, there is always a frenzy of excitement.

However, a source close to the A-list power couple has told The U.S. Sun that the Cruel Summer singer is determined to keep a low profile this weekend.

This time last year, all the talk before the Chiefs clashed with the San Francisco 49ers was how quickly Taylor could jet back from Tokoyo to Las Vegas to catch the big game.

The insider says the 34-year-old “loved” seeing Travis win his second Championship ring despite the madcap, transatlantic dash.

Fast-forward 12 months, however, and Taylor is said to be “way more rested and relaxed” thanks to a much-needed break at the end of her grueling Eras tour schedule.

She is “excited” about the whole Super Bowl New Orleans experience.

But just as Travis manfully supports her career and has become one of her biggest cheerleaders, now it’s his time to step onto the global stage and produce the goods.

“Taylor doesn’t want to be the center of attention,” the source told The U.S. Sun, “she just wants to support Travis and help him focus on the game.”

The insider claims she will arrive in NOLA “a maximum of two days” before Sunday’s big kick-off, stressing there were never any plans to stay for the traditional whole week of build-up.

“She wants Travis to enjoy his Super Bowl week experience and be at 110% for Sunday, as she is dreaming about him making history and reaching another dream of his, winning another Super Bowl and making a three-peat,” said the source.

“He loves that she is super supportive, and he is the same with her, as they got each other’s back whatever happens.”

ONE FINAL PUSH

The U.S. Sun has exclusively revealed the couple has big plans for the postseason.

They are desperate to return to Italy – buying a love nest in Lake Como is still on their minds – and enjoy some rest.

Travis will also cash in his birthday present by enjoying a day racing around the iconic Monza Formula One circuit.

But writing themselves into legend—whether on a football field or by selling out world tours—trumps everything.

As revealed by The U.S. Sun, Taylor has invited a host of superstars to watch the action alongside her, including Blake Lively and husband Ryan Reynolds.

They will all roaring Travis and his Chiefs pal towards glory.

“They love spending time together but also enjoy supporting each other to make history,” confirmed the insider.

“They know when to step back for each other so they can focus and be fully prepared. Their understanding of what each other needs is fantastic.”

'A great escape'

Kelce and Swift have been constant presences at each other’s events, and Reid shared that he thinks they enjoy getting out of the spotlight.

“He can handle it. I think there’s a great escape for him,” Reid told the Athletic.

“I said that about Taylor too. I mean, she comes to the game, she can kind of escape having to be the show.

“And when he goes to her concerts, she’s the star and he can be hanging out there and be the support or the waterboy.”
