I’m A Celeb’s Simon Gregson rules out Strictly saying he wouldn’t be ‘a good fit’

Simon Gregson has proved himself as a reality TV hit this year, coming runner up in I'm A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here!

But the star, who sat down for a festive shoot with OK! for this week's issue, says he wouldn't necessarily put himself forward for more reality TV in the future.

In fact, the Coronation Street star told OK! he wouldn't be "the right fit" for Strictly Come Dancing.

When asked whether he'd do the show, Simon said: "I don’t think Strictly and me would be a good fit! Never say never, but right now I’m just concentrating on my family."

Simon – who has played Corrie's Steve McDonald since the eighties – came second to Emmerdale'sDanny Miller in this year's version of I'm A Celeb.

The star told OK! he really didn't expect to make it to the final, but is glad the public got to see the real him after playing Steve for so long.

Simon explains: "I didn't [expect it] at all! It was nice to get there though. Me, Danny and Frankie became really good friends. Danny's got a tiny little baby boy, so it's nice he was able to take the crown home."

Simon continued: "The only time people really ever see you is when you're on game shows and things like that, which are so quick.

"We're massive fans of Ant and Dec in this house, so it was nice to be able to have a laugh with them. It's nice for people to see how silly and stupid I really am!"

Simon also opened up on his best and worst parts of being in the castle, explaining: "The best part was meeting new people.

"The bad parts were how much you miss your family and friends. It's absolutely mind blowing how long a day is in there! Time goes so slowly."


He also explained he has made friends for life through the experience.

He added: "I've definitely made friends for life. Obviously me and Adam are very similar in our lives and jobs. Danny, of course. I got on brilliantly with Frankie, she's very funny. Me and Louise got really close, too."
