Her husband might be otherwise engaged, but Rachael Bellew was surrounded by reminders of retired boxer Tony as she ventured out in Queensland on Tuesday.
The I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! star’s wife was joined by their four sons during a day out in Surfers Paradise as he competes to be named King Of The Jungle.
Making the most of soaring temperatures on Australia’s east coast, Rachael, 40, dressed appropriately in a floral patterned playsuit while picking up snacks with boys Corey, 18, Cobey, 15, Carter, 11, and Carson, three.
The family are enjoying an Australian summer while Tony competes on I’m A Celeb after joining the jungle camp as a late addition.
Their latest appearance comes after she revealed her three eldest sons have been voting for their dad ‘to do the Bushtrucker Trials’ as they ‘love to watch him suffer’.

Rachael was sure to combine her supportive wife act with some down time of her own as she hit the beach in her sexy ensemble on Monday.
The brunette was seen larking around on the beach, clearly in total relaxation mode as she awaits her husband’s departure.
She paired the bandeau top with high-waisted bottoms, which acted to lengthen her legs and also provide a peek at the tattoo on her bottom.
Since touching down in Australia to support the star, Rachael has commented on her husband’s brave challenge on Saturday night’s episode, which saw him squeeze himself into a mock up reptile in a bid to win meals for camp.
Rachael was among voters who wanted to test the boxer’s survival skills in the jungle as she told The Mirror: ‘We’ve never watched any shows he’s done but we’re watching this. And the trials… I love watching him suffer!’
She also admitted the sports star is a ‘very fussy eater’ and said he will never be able to joke about her coleslaw again after he drunk ‘blended bull’s penis’.
The doting mother didn’t shy away from admitting the whole family was quite surprised with how great Tony has been copying during his time in the jungle.
She said: ‘Ant plays the macho man, but he’s a big softie. I bet he’s more scared than he looks in the trials. In the snake trial, you could tell he was petrified and I’m sure he’ll get a bit of ribbing for that when he gets out. But he’s not a quitter.

I’m A Celeb star Fred Sirieix’s a girlfriend Fruitcake was also seen in Queensland on Tuesday
‘Joking aside, we’re all very proud of him.’
Commenting on Tony’s long-winded four-minute tale about meeting his wife which aired on Thursday’s episode, during which he also showed a tattoo on his chest marking his first kiss with Rachel, she said: ‘I swear that date’s wrong! He insists not so I play along.’
She went on adding that it has been quite some time since then, as the duo faced joys and sorrows before and after building their family as they ‘stuck it out’.
Rachael said she’d be ‘buzzing’ if Tony should win, but there is no way she would get that to his head as she admitted she’s ready to have that crown ‘off him’.
The pair met when they were nine years old – but it took many years of effort from Tony for them to finally get together.
