GK Barry reveals extreme phobia and begs I’m A Celeb viewers not to vote for her to do trials

Quitting is not an option for the paralympian

Paralympian and TV presenter, GK Barry, has revealed that she has an extreme phobia of heights – and has begged I’m A Celebrity viewers not to vote for her to do any trials that involve climbing or dangling. In a candid interview with the Daily Mirror, Barry admitted that her fear of heights is so severe that she can barely even look out of a window without feeling panicked. She said: “I’m terrified of heights. I can’t even go on the balcony of my apartment without having a panic attack.”

Barry is keen to test herself on I’m A Celebrity, but she is dreading the prospect of being voted to do a trial that could make her face her fear. She said: “I’m determined to give everything a go, but I’m really hoping that viewers won’t vote for me to do any trials that involve heights. It would be my absolute worst nightmare.”

Barry is a role model for many

Despite her fear of heights, Barry is determined to overcome her phobia. She said: “I know that I can do this. I’m not going to let my fear control me. I’m going to face it head-on and I’m going to come out the other side stronger.”
