The best friend of Josie Gibson says the This Morning star is making her son proud with her jungle exploits.

Mia Williams arrived in Brisbane airport with her son Romey and Josie's son Reggie Bond, as the families of the cast fly out to support them.

She said: "Josie’s clearly missing Reg and that came across after her last trial with Danielle.

"She was talking about him and being a single mum, doing it on her own, and I know she wants Reg to see how strong she is. He’s going to be really proud of her at the end."

"We’ve been best friends for 19 years. So I saw her the whole way through Big Brother and now she’s killing it, I couldn’t be prouder of her. She’s got the whole of Bristol behind her," she added.

"We’re here to bring the Queen home. There’s no doubt she’s going to be Queen of the Jungle."

Asked about Josie's five-year-old son, Mia added: "Reg has been great, he's been with me, he’s been with his dad. He’s enjoying himself and obviously we’ve got a bit of an adventure ahead of us but he was really good on the flight over.

"I let him stay up to watch on the last night before our flight but other than that, no he hasn’t been allowed to stay up. I normally just record it and then let them watch it the next day. They just laugh, they’re loving it.

"Obviously it’s tough for her and you can see that. She is missing him and she is doing it for him – she wants him to see her on the TV."

Going into camp, This Morning host Josie has spoken about the missing her son whilst she was in camp but providing him with a great adventure.

At the time she said: "Reg will be coming over and he’ll be looked after as part of the I’m A Celebrity friends and family which is a big reason why I agreed to do it because obviously to leave Reg is a big ask and a big commitment.

"So my best friend will be bringing him over and he’ll be going to like wildlife sanctuaries and learning all about Australia.

"They're gonna go and cuddle koalas and they'll be coming into the jungle and yeah. So he's a very, very lucky little boy."

It comes as Danielle Harold’s mum, Lisa Marie Carter, also flew out from the UK with the EastEnders star’s stepdad David Murray and her friend Avinash Goury.

Sarah Corrin, the girlfriend of Hollyoaks actor Nick Pickard, was also among the first to be pictured arriving Down Under, as she spoke of her pride for the soap star.

Meanwhile Tony Bellew's wife Rachael was also photographed after she made the long journey with their sons to support ex-boxer husband.

The rest of the family members are expected to arrive imminently with Fred Sirieix's other half – who he nicknames Fruitcake to protect her identity – also seen arriving in Australia.

Nigel Farage’s daughter Izzy was also spotted at Brisbane Airport to support the TV presenter.

Sam Thompson's famous best friend and podcast host Pete Wick's has also arrived as the TOWIE star flew out to support his fellow reality TV star mate.
