Embarrassment for Irish model just one day into reality show

by

The latest series of I'm A Celebrity, Get Me Out of Here started last night, with eleven contestants getting ready for a whirlwind few weeks in the Australian jungle. Those taking part this year include Kendra Wilkinson, Tinchy Stryder and TOWIE's Gemma Collins,

Irish model Nadia Forde is flying the flag for the Emerald Isle, and she chatted a little about her career in last night's episode.

Things got off to a fairly bad start when viewers began commenting on Twitter about having no idea who she was – although she does happen to have over 20,000 followers on the social media site:

The 25-year-old then mentioned on air that she had her own reality show – which sparked even more confusion from those watching:

Turns out the model, who was linked to Rory McIlroy earlier this year, did have a four-part reality series on 3e called Nadia Goes To Hollywood. Okay, we'll take that, but it's not quite Keeping Up With The Kardashians!

MTV star Laura Whitmore, who is hosting the I'm A Celebrity… aftershow, even received a grilling about why Nadia was chosen. "Who is she?" asked contributor Eamonn Holmes. "Not even Rory McIlroy knows who she is. No one in Ireland knows who she is." 

Ouch!

Laura responded by saying Nadia was "a model in Ireland" but that she didn't know much about her as she hadn't "been home in a while."

Nadia must have a few people rooting for her, though – former Miss World Rosanna Davison was one of the first to pass on her good wishes:

We hope things go a bit better for the model tonight!
