The mother of British boxer David Haye has claimed that she would have preferred her son to have signed up for Strictly Come Dancing instead of I'm A Celebrity...Get Me Out Of Here.

The 32-year-old entered the Australian jungle alongside celebrities including former Coronation Street actress Helen Flanagan and ex-darts player Eric Bristow.

"When he said he was doing this I said to him, 'Why don't you do the dancing show instead?'" said Jane Haye.

Jane and Haye's dad Deron have flown to Australia to support the boxer.
