I'm A Celebrity star Gillian McKeith was cruelly scammed out of Taylor Swift tickets, with her and her daughters missing out on the gig and losing their money.

The 64-year-old thought she had bagged tickets for the popstar's Eras Tour at Wembley Arena on June 22. But she soon realised the person selling the tickets was lying, after taking her money. She and her 24-year-old daughter Afton should have been going for Gillian's other daughter, Skylar's birthday. The 29-year-old has recently announced she is pregnant.

Filming a video in the back of a cab, Gillian told her followers: "I just want to say we have a problem - we got scammed. We had thought that we bought Taylor Swift tickets and it turned out the person was lying about having the tickets and just took our money."

She added: "And there's been one excuse after another and they get more fantastic as each day goes on the excuses." Afton added: "We are devastated as we wanted to go to Taylor Swift's concert on the 22nd June. We thought we had tickets, turns out it was all a façade and a lie just to take our money. Someone we actually knew."

Gillian said: "Total scam. Please watch out." A visibly upset Afton continued: "Now it's too late to go to her concert, we can't get a ticket now. It's sold out."

Gillian explained: "We've lost all our money and we need to get it back," with Afton adding: "We need to get that money back and we would like to be able to go to Taylor Swift's concert please."

Afton captioned the video: "Devastated is an understatement. Watch out for Taylor Swift SCAMMERS!! Have you been scammed out of tickets?" Skylar commented: "So disappointed! They were supposed to be my birthday present too."

Skylar is a solicitor, specialising in immigration law, and she's decided to live her life away from the limelight. The 29-year-old has revealed she was pregnant when she was pictured at a fashion show with actress and model sister Afton. She could be seen cradling her growing bump while she smiled for the cameras. A source close to the McKeith family confirmed to the Mirror that Skylar is expecting her second child later this year.

Meanwhile, her sister Afton has followed in her mum's footsteps by going into showbiz. The 24-year-old, who dated Brooklyn Beckham as a teenager, trained at the performing arts school Italia Conti in London, as well as Cours Florent in Paris. She acts, sings and dances and has also been rumoured to be in talks to go on Love Island for the past two years, but so far has not appeared.
