Castle rep responds to claims the I'm A Celeb castle has central heating
"That castle's got central heating!"
Last updated 25th Nov 2020
When ITV bosses announced the 2020 series of I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here would be taking place at Gwrych Castle this year, instead of the usual jungle in Australia, many viewers were worried about the celebs living in the cold Welsh weather.
However, after witnessing a number of this year's celebs walking around the castle in t-shirts, and seeing Strictly Come Dancing's AJ Pritchard sleeping topless, many fans of the show have questioned whether or not central heating has been installed into the historic castle.
One wrote on Twitter, 'AJ sleeping naked... Everyone in tshirts.. That castle's got central heating! #ImACeleb #imacelebrity'. (sic)
Another added, 'Has the castle got central heating, no1 complained day or night about how cold it is. Unless theres a heatwave we don't know about. #ImaCeleb'. (sic)
A Welsh native then wrote, 'I live in Wales, tucked up in bed with the heating on still freezing cold.. why are they all in tshirts, waking up with nothing on and haven’t moaned once about it being cold? #ImACeleb.' (sic)
Does the I'm A Celeb castle have central heating?
However, after seeing the speculation online, the official Twitter account for Gwrych Castle responded to the claims, confirming the castle certainly DOES NOT have central heating.
Well, that is that settled then!
