'I'm A Celebrity' Star Joey Essex's Ex-Girlfriend Sam Faiers Claims He Has OCD: 'I'm Concerned For Him'

'Joey Has OCD And Is A Hypochondriac'

They were once 'TOWIE's cutest couple and it seems even now Sam Faiers has split from 'I'm A Celebrity' star Joey Essex she can't stop worrying about him and his OCD habits.

The reality star has told The Sun she fears for her ditzy ex in the jungle, claiming "when the food goes down I have a feeling he may crumble and I’m concerned for him".

“He is also a self-proclaimed hypochondriac. He’d get a little cut and want to go to the doctors.

“He’d rush to the internet to self-diagnose about the slightest thing.”

But while Sam is at home worrying about Joey, viewers have seen him enjoying himself with Miss Universe Great Britain Amy Willerton.

The pair have been taking jungle showers together and sharing massages after striking up a bond.

However, fellow 'TOWIE' star James 'Arg' Argent has given his blessing to Joey and Amy if they do finally get together.

He told Daybreak: "She’s lovely… I am a bit jealous yeah. If it doesn’t work out with them two hopefully he’ll introduce me to her after... She’s naturally pretty, she’s well spoken, a bright girl."
