Danny Jones’ proud mother Kathy has predicted the McFly star will be crowned King Of The Jungle.
The families of the celebrities arrived in Brisbane on Tuesday ahead of the evictions coming up.
As Kathy touched down in the airport, she reflected on Danny’s, 38, ’emotional rollercoaster’ jungle experience so far.
She told The Mirror: ‘I was laughing watching him with the snake down his trousers and then the next day I was crying.
‘It got me a bit. I am so proud of him… I think he could win, and do it for the North.’
She also told MailOnline: ‘Danny’s amazing, he’s doing amazing. I loved the snake down his trousers and it’s really unusual of him not to wash his pants for three days, he’s usually very hygienic.

‘He’s the nicest man I know apart from Harry, Danny and Tom [McFly] they’re also really nice.’
The mother-of-two revealed that she hadn’t heard from his bandmates personally but she had seen their videos on social media and loved them.
Her arrival in Australia comes after Danny broke down in tears as he opened up about his life-long anxiety during Wednesday night’s episode.
Danny was overcome with emotion as he discussed his mental health with his campmates, admitting he has had therapy since he was 19-years-old.
Fans praised the star for being so honest and open about his mental health, after Strictly’s Oti Mabuse, 34, stressed the importance of men talking about their feelings.
During the very emotional chat, Oti was brought to tears as she revealed her half-brother Neo committed suicide and admitted he probably would still be alive if ‘he had spoken to someone about what he was feeling’.
Explaining that one of his tattoos says ‘Don’t Worry, Be Happy’, Danny said: ‘It’s because I’m always constantly worrying, but that’s what I’m working on.
‘I’ve been in therapy since I was 19 for anxiety.’
She said: ‘I was laughing watching him with the snake down his trousers and then the next day I was crying. It got me a bit. I am so proud of him… I think he could win, and do it for the North’

Danny recalled a moment where he had a panic attack on live TV while being interviewed.
He said: I was freaking out and I couldn’t answer the question that got asked to me. [My] Heartrate goes crazy.’
As Jane asked whether he thought he had anxiety from a child or from being in a band, he said: ‘I think I escaped a lot.’
It comes after Danny’s ‘estranged’ father has lifted the lid on their decades-long rift for the first time, revealing he hasn’t seen the star for 18 years.
In an exclusive interview with MailOnline, Alan Jones, 72, believes a bitter divorce from Danny’s mother Kathy tarnished his relationship with his son, who he describes as a ‘lovely lad’ with a ‘heart of gold’.
He claims they had an ‘excellent’ bond throughout the McFly guitarist’s childhood in Bolton and he ‘dedicated his life’ to helping kick-start his successful music career.
The radio DJ, who now lives in Benidorm with his current wife Sharon, has yet to meet his six-year-old grandson Cooper, who Danny shares with his wife and former Miss England Georgia Horsley – but he is holding out hope that ‘one day it will happen’ and that he’ll ‘finally get that pint with his son’.
Danny has never visited his father in Spain, where he moved to in 2016, and Alan was not present at his daughter Vicky’s wedding last year.

Alan was also not invited to Danny’s nuptials with Georgia in 2014.
Speaking from his radio station in L’Alfas del Pi, Alan explained how his marriage to Kathy went south when Danny and Vicky left home in the early 2000s.
Danny was in London after signing a record label alongside Tom Fletcher to form the band McFly – which would go on to sell more than 10 million records worldwide.
Alan said: ‘It should have been a time where the marriage got a bit closer, but it didn’t.
‘I can’t explain why but it didn’t, so we had two very bad years, and in fact, Danny saw this with his sister and they wrote a song about it… and then I met Sharon and that was it.’
Danny was 19 when Alan walked out on the family in 2005, and has previously revealed how he sought therapy for anxiety over the incident.
