I'm A Celeb star facing fresh health woes after cancer diagnosis

Adele Roberts is still facing health woes, over five years since she first started noticing symptoms of cancer. The former radio presenter experienced early signs of the illness while competing on the reality show, in 2019. She was later diagnosed two years after her stint in the Australian jungle. In 2021, Adele confirmed she was undergoing chemotherapy treatment and began using a stoma bag for bowel cancer. She recently revealed that she was , but the radio DJ shared a candid update with followers and said she's encountering more obstacles.

Taking to social media, she posted a selfie photo of herself in the hospital, sitting next to her partner Kate. She wrote: "Having a blood test today for my anaemia. Hopefully this one will go well and I can get more medication.'

Crossing her fingers in the Instagram image, she continued: "We're not sure why my iron count is low... either damage to my blood from chemo or due to having a stoma.

"Without my medication I have no energy. I'm not running at the moment and I'm so tired all the time. Hopefully I'll get some more medicine once my GP has seen today's results... otherwise I'm going to be consistently falling asleep until I die."

Last year, Adele finished in third place in the 2024 series of . She said that she wouldn't have signed up "without a stoma."

During an interview with Express Online last year, Adele spoke about the early signs of cancer she experienced during her time in the I'm A Celebrity jungle.

She recalled, "I was ill with cancer on that show. I was in a bad way and and one of the symptoms is losing weight rapidly.

"I couldn't put on weight on that show. I think I am the only contestant that's ever not eating the food, but it was because my tummy was so sore.

"I'd fall asleep and not be able to eat my food. There was a night where I wore all my clothing and got into bed because I was so cold. You just don't think it's something like cancer. I was very worried because my body just felt like I was shutting down."
