I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! star David Ginola made an unexpected confession after leaving the programme recently, saying he missed ‘making love’ while living it up in Gwrych Castle.

The former footballer, 54, left the ITV reality series in fourth place, with Emmerdale’s Danny Miller winning the show in last night’s grand finale and Coronation Street’s Simon Gregson coming second.

Speaking after his stint on the show, he confessed: ‘What I missed most was making love — especially when you do it every day.’

He is in a relationship with Meava Denat, who wrote him a touching letter from while inside the castle. 

But who is she? Here’s everything you need to know.

Who is David Ginola’s girlfriend Maeva Denat?

David is currently in a relationship with French model Maeva Denat, who is 22 years his junior. The couple welcomed a baby daughter in 2018.

Maeva Denat, 32, updates her 10k Instagram followers with glimpses of her glamorous lifestyle. 

Maeva and David were first linked in 2016 when they were photographed holding hands in Paris.

During his time in camp, David got emotional and cried when he said: ‘I love my girlfriend more and more everyday.’ 

David has a three-year-old daughter Ever with Meave, while Meave has an older daughter, Linoi, with a previous partner.

He already has two grown-up children with his ex-wife Coraline Delpin – son Andrea, 27, and daughter Carla, 23.

David and Coraline married in 1991, and then split in 2016.

It wasn’t just Maeva he missed inside the camp, either. 

The star also told The Sun: ‘I missed food, because rice and beans is good for a few days but after two and a half weeks… You know, I don’t think I’m going to eat beans for the rest of my life.

‘The cold was really a massive aspect of life in the castle. I don’t know what you do in your country, but you have so much water. I mean, it’s just amazing. Every day it was rain.’

I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! is available to stream on ITV Hub.
