Marvin Humes has jokingly been called out by his bandmates for missing out some information about how he started dating now-wife Rochelle Humes on I'm of Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here. The JLS star is among the initial ten campmates who have headed Down Under to take part in the ITV reality show.
It means he's left his presenter wife Rochelle and their three children back at home and potentially won't have contact for up to four weeks depending on how he fares in the jungle. During Tuesday night's (November 21) show from Down Under, Marvin was heard opening up to some of his campmates about how he met his wife of 11 years.
Marvin, 38, shared how he pestered the former The Saturdays singer, 34, for a date with him following a night out with their respective bands in 2010. He said they were getting on 'really well' and said how he'd told his bandmates he thought Rochelle was 'hot'.

The DJ and presenter then recalled when Rochelle went to the bathroom, he went into her handbag and took her phone, before calling his own number so he had her digits. Marvin explained: "I met Rochelle when JLS and The Saturdays were doing shows together, I'd always said to the boys 'I like her, she's hot'.
"And we were in a nightclub in Ireland after doing a show together one night, chatting and getting on really well, and she went to the toilet, right, and she left her handbag at the table with me. I got her phone out, called myself so I had her phone number, and it took me about three months of pestering me to get a date."
