Why GK Barry and Jane Moore act like they don't know each other on I'm A Celeb
Social media star GK Barry is in the I'm A Celebrity camp with her Loose Women co-star Jane Moore, yet the pair haven't appeared to spend much time together as her pal reveals why
GK Barry' s best friend has weighed in on her appearing to keep her distance from Loose Women star Jane Moore.
The pair, who both star on the ITV daytime panel show, are in the I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here! camp together. Despite being colleagues on the outside world, viewers have seen minimal interactions between the pair while in the Australian jungle. Jane, who also works as a journalist, started on Loose Women back in 1999.
She has been on and off the show ever since, while social media star GK - real name Grace Keeling - joined the panel this year. GK's best pal and former Gogglebox star Joe Baggs has revealed the reason the pair may not seem so close to viewers.

Speaking to the Mirror, Joe said: "I think that where they obviously know each other, they're probably putting that energy into getting to know other people who they don't know. To be fair, that normally happens in there."
"I'm sure we will see, as people start to get voted out, the connections getting closer as well," he said. Joe, who has released his own cocktail set called Moist, admitted he was hoping for more from GK and Jane. The social media star revealed: "I was hoping for a few more Loose Women chats. When they come up with those topics and then they start to debate them, I need a few of those in the camp."
However, Joe is impressed with GK's unlikely connection with Reverend Richard Coles. The vicar entered the camp late, but quickly found a bond with GK as they've discussed everything from their sexuality to religion and even a royal family confession. Joe admitted he didn't see their friendship coming as he said: "It is such an unlikely pairing. I really didn't see that coming.
"I was thinking when she when in, it was going to be Coleen Rooney [she would be close to] like a mother daughter relationship 100 per cent or Maura [Higgins]. I think it's so funny and the conversations and the vibe they've got going is so good. I want them to have a tribal show or something together. Something after I'm a Celeb with those two would be amazing."
Joe admitted he hopes the pair stay in touch on the outside world and said they will definitely get him on their podcast. The TikTok star also thought there would be more tension in camp than there has been but has a prediction why. Joe said: "I just think it all depends on who gets voted for those trials, because then once they get hungrier and hungrier that's when the arguments start to happen.
"They've had like a really solid week with the trials, so I think that's why they've been getting on. It also depends on if anything political is going to be brought up because there's not really been too many conversations that are that divisive yet. Obviously Jane, with the comments with Barry about the sexism stuff was a bit snappy. It will be interesting to see if anything follows on from that."
