OHMYGOSSIP — Harry Redknapp has promised to help James McVey get a discount on his engagement ring.
The Vamps star is set to propose to his model girlfriend Kirstie Brittain and has been asking his ‘I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here!’ campmate Harry for help on where to get the ring.
He told The Sun on Sunday: “Mr Redknapp is my new best friend. I grew up five miles from where he lives in Dorset.
“I’ve been asking him about certain jewellers down South and he said he’d hook me up for a juicy little discount somewhere, I hope.”
James bonded with Harry, 71, in the jungle and said the football manager stopped him from feeling homesick.
He said: “I went into this not being too emotional and I was crying every day for weeks.
“But I spent the majority of last week talking to Harry about all these little restaurants and cafes from where we live and having him in there really helped me.
“He was like my little bit of home in there. We come from completely different backgrounds and somehow we found this weird synergy where we helped each other out.”
James previously revealed he also bonded with TV presenter Nick Knowles on the show and was gutted when he left.
He said: “I saw Nick as a father figure in the camp and I’m really inspired by everything he did so when he left it was a big blow. So to be honest, I’m glad that I’m out now because I was struggling without having that figure there.”
