His 32-year-old widow Kelsey embarked on a huge challenge for the charity CoppaFeel.

In a new interview, Kelsey opened up on her experience of the charity task, as she claimed her late husband was there with her in-spirit.

Speaking to OK! Magazine, she explained: "I knew he was there with me and I thought I’m 100% doing this for him.

"We got to the top of one sand dune and a butterfly flew past me. Butterflies are my thing with Tom.

"My team were like, “He’s here with us.” I had to be strong out there because I wanted to be there for my team."

The personality walked 100 kilometres across the Sahara Dessert for the breast cancer awareness non-profit organisation.

Other celeb names who competed in the challenge include Queen's of the Jungle Giovanna Fletcher and Vicky Pattison, Towie star Pete Wicks, and former Bake Off winner Candice Brown.

The stars had to brave the elements as they trekked for up to 10 hours a day before sleeping under the stars.

This comes after the mum-of-two filmed her own documentary show which aired on ITV.

Reflecting on her experiences, the star admitted she's been flooded with messages of support since the programme went out on TV.

"It’s been overwhelming. I’d been filming it for such a long time that I kind of forgot I’d filmed it.

When it went out, I was like, “Oh my God, it’s real, people are seeing how I am grieving."
