However the reality TV star and animal rights activist quickly rebutted the rumours, criticising the show for its use of live insects in bush tucker trials.

She said "The show has been criticised by animal lovers for the consumption of live creatures, and no amount of money would make me want to be part of something that disrespects nature that way".

While many in the UK enjoyed watching Tiger King on Netflix during the start of lockdown, sadly we won’t be able to watch the CEO of Big Cat Rescue compete on Dancing with the Stars via the streaming service.
