Strictly Jamie Borthwick's defiant reason for refusing to go on I'm A Celebrity
Jamie Borthwick admitted that "all the money in the world" couldn't convince him to appear on I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here!.
The 30-year-old is currently thriving on the Strictly Come Dancing alongside Michelle Tsiakkas. With his time fully filled with training for the BBC competition and working on EastEnders, Jamie revealed he has no interest in taking part in other shows for the time being.
"For the minute, I'm in a good place on EastEnders and Strictly," the soap star exclusively told Express.co.uk at the Pride of Britain Awards.
However, Michelle suggested Jamie would want to take part in I'm A Celebrity, a remark he immediately shut down.
"No I don't," Jamie declared. "I would not do that show for all the money in the world."
While the actor hasn't been approached about doing the show before, Jamie warned ITV bosses to keep it that way.
