“It’s a very emotional episode this evening on I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here!” he said ahead of the episode, while tears pooled in his eyes.

Seeing Joel in tears clearly moved some of his fans.
“Omg what’s going on!” one wrote in the comments. “Got to watch it now.”
“Oh gosh!” another wrote. “Sending you love!”
Is Joel OK? He does not look himself.
A third encouraged others to “give him a hug,” while a fourth asked: “Is Joel OK? He does not look himself.”
Another concerned person wrote: “He looks tired and different.”
Someone else commented: “Are you OK?”
Barry on I’m A Celebrity
Last night’s episode of I’m A Celebrity saw tears all round, including from much of the viewing public – and, dare we say, many of us here at Entertainment Daily!
During mealtime, Barry McGuigan opened up about the death of his daughter Danika. She was just 33 years old when she died, following a brief but intense battle with bowel cancer.
She had successfully beaten acute lymphoblastic leukaemia as a child. For that, Nika – as her friends knew her – underwent chemotherapy for two years in St Bartholomew’s Hospital, London.
The Northern Irish actor was “an incredible and versatile talent who lit up our screens with her undeniable presence, sensitivity and superb comic timing,” her agent said following her passing.
Barry’s campmates were quick to console him, with Tulisa Contostavlos offering some sage words to the boxing promoter.
I’m A Celebrity continues on November 19 from 9pm on ITV1 and ITVX.
