I’m A Celeb star Nigel Farage’s ‘girlfriend will fly to support him in jungle
Fred tells Nigel Farage ‘you destroyed the economy’
According to reports, Nigel Farage’s apparent girlfriend Laure Ferrari will be jetting out to support him on I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here!.
The decision to fly to Australia and meet Nigel there would finally confirm their alleged six-year relationship, which has never been made public.
Ex-UKIP leader Nigel, 59, has previously been linked to 44-year-old French politician Laure, but according to the Sun she is now joining the friends and family group expected to arrive in Australia over the next few weeks.
A source told the publication: “Nigel and Laure have been linked for years, ever since she first moved into his house in Chelsea and was seen taking the bins out.
“Nigel has never confirmed the nature of their relationship and is incredibly private about his family life but there was a feeling if there was ever a time to open that door, it was now.

“It felt like a huge step for Matt Hancock to invite his controversial girlfriend Gina Coladangelo out to Oz last year but the move proved to be a PR masterclass and somewhat helped towards his redemption after their lockdown-busting affair.
“Of course plans can change but at this stage Laure is booked to fly out.”
Nigel has previously denied claims of a romantic relationship, telling the Mail on Sunday: “She is someone I have worked with and known for a long time who wanted somewhere to stay for a week that wouldn’t cost her any money.
“It’s a working relationship. You can inflate it however you want to.”

Laure and Nigel reportedly met back in 2007 when she was 28 and working as a waitress in Strasbourg.
Nigel then appointed her as a parliamentary assistant, after which time she went on to be PR director of Farage’s parliamentary group Europe of Freedom and Direct Democracy.
The political figure separated from his wife of 18 years, Kirsten, in late 2016.
Laure was first pictured at Nigel’s home back in February 2017, which sparked questions in the media if he has started a new relationship.
The pair were also seen enjoying a drink at a London pub together that same year, but Nigel continued to dismiss the idea of a relationship with Laure as “crackers”.
In June, footage also showed the pair slow dancing at a party to celebrate the one-year anniversary of the Brexit vote.
A source told the Sun: “There was no question that they were a couple. Laure was putting on quite a display.
“She seemed to twerk a bit and was all over Nigel. From the look on his face, he was loving every minute.”
Express.co.uk has contacted Nigel’s representatives for comment.
I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! continues tonight at 9pm on ITV.
