Published 24 November 2025

Kelly Brook's husband has publicly defended the model and television personality against online trolls who criticized her figure ahead of her appearance on the ITV reality show I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here. The 45-year-old, competing in the 2024 edition of the program filmed in the Australian jungle, has faced scrutiny over her curves since arriving in Brisbane last week, prompting her spouse, Jeremy Parisi, to speak out in support.

Parisi, who married Brook in 2022 after the couple began dating in 2015, described the pressure on women in the public eye as particularly challenging. "I'm so happy to see Kelly being so confident and happy in her own skin," he said. "It's hard for women in the public eye to be put under such scrutiny, but she is a positive role model for so many women, which is something she should be proud of." He also called his wife "gorgeous" and expressed disappointment at missing her upcoming birthday, marking the first time in a decade they would not celebrate together. Parisi plans to fly to Australia on Monday to reunite with her on the show's iconic jungle bridge for belated festivities.
