GK Barry's proud mama, Loretta, is all for her daughter winning the title of Queen of the Jungle, as she told the Mirror, "I am just so proud of her." Watching her 25 year old, also known as Grace, smash it on I'm A Celebrity has been nothing short of awe-inspiring for Loretta.The youngster, who already had a strong online presence, is just now hitting the mainstream spotlight, and her mum reckoned it was bound to happen. "Both her father and I are absolutely incredibly proud of what she’s doing," gushed Loretta. "We feel this is only the beginning.

Once people get to know Grace, she will become an absolute comedy legend. She’s good at entertaining people of all ages, and it’s really exciting to see her on the screen for the first time.

She’ll be her amazing self." When quizzed about Grace's chances of winning she said, "Yeah, I think she could. If she puts her mind to it, Grace can do anything." Despite facing her creepy-crawly fears in the "Vile Volcano" challenge - where she encountered rats, lizards, snakes, and came out triumphant with nine stars – there's great optimism about her journey ahead.

Where cockroaches once left her distraught, Loretta is certain: "I think the more she does, the stronger she’ll get. Whatever she needs to do, I know Grace will do it and she’ll give it her all." Apparently, even as a little one, Grace was petrified of bugs. "I wouldn’t expect anything less from Grace...she’s always been a bit of a scaredy cat," she shared.
