Family Dynamics Amid Reality TV Appearances
At their north London residence, Harleymoon, 36, noted the household’s calmness. Their mother, Shirlie, has been managing everything well. She expressed, “It’s been one in, one out at our house. My mum’s held it together pretty well so far.”
Martin Kemp: A Gentle Giant in the Jungle
Martin Kemp, iconic frontman of Spandau Ballet, is a late addition to this year’s I’m A Celebrity! Joining just a week before filming began, he brings a unique presence. Harleymoon believes he has stayed true to himself during the show, saying, “He’s been authentically himself… He’s a gentle giant.”
Despite a star-studded cast, Martin tends to avoid conflict and center stage, a characteristic his daughter appreciates. She was pleasantly surprised by how he has navigated the experience without causing chaos.
About Martin’s Journey and Motivation
During his time in the jungle, Martin has openly discussed his life experiences, including his relationship with Shirlie, whom he has been married to for 37 years. He has candidly spoken about his past battles with health issues as well as his near offer for the role of James Bond.
Reflecting on her father’s decision to participate, Harleymoon mentioned, “He’s 64. I don’t know if he’ll do lots more of these types of challenges in his life.” She pointed out that it presents a great adventure for him, especially since he enjoys such exhilarating experiences.
Advice from Roman and Social Life Insights
- Roman, who previously appeared on the show in 2019, advised Martin on choosing a hammock for comfort.
- Despite this, Martin opted for a camp bed, indicating he might not have remembered the suggestion.
- Outside of the show, Martin maintains a vibrant social life, often DJing and enjoying nights out.
Harleymoon humorously contrasted her father’s active nightlife with her own preference for staying in, saying, “My dad’s out clubbing while I’m in bed with the dogs!” She noted that she initially thought the jungle would provide him with a much-needed break.
Celebrating Family Pride
Regardless of the outcome of the competition, Harleymoon emphasized the pride her family feels for Martin’s participation. “We’re so proud of him,” she affirmed, encapsulating their support.
In addition to her family news, Harleymoon is currently promoting her new single, “My Girls (Love Me Best),” which is available now. She has performances lined up in several cities, including Glasgow, Birmingham, Manchester, and London.
