The fiance of Olympic swimmer Rebecca Adlington, Harry Needs, has been forced to deny rumours that the athlete is pregnant.

Suggestions that the 24-year-old was expecting her first child did the rounds when she was exempt from a bushtucker trial on medical grounds during her stint in the I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! jungle.

However, her fiance denied the rumours on Twitter by posting: "I can honestly say hand on heart, she's not... Unless something went on in the jungle without me? #TeamAdlo."

Adlington has been pulled out of the telephone voting for two trials so far in the ITV series.
