NIGEL Farage's girlfriend Laure Ferrari looked red hot as she hit the beach in Australia in a bikini ahead of the I'm A Celebrity final.

The 44-year-old French politician is relaxing on the Gold Coast in luxury before being reunited with her divisive other half.

A source said: "After a few drinks by the pool with Nigel's daughter Izzy and agent, she went off to the beach for 30 minutes. She was scrolling through her phone and sunbathing - she didn't look worried about Nigel's time in camp at all!"

Laure wore a shimmering cover-up to the beach as she walked across the sand listening to music and carrying her bag.

She stripped off to her swimwear and made a beeline for the ocean where she splashed around in the surf.

When she arrived in Australia, Laure laughed as The Sun asked what it has been like living with Nigel these past six years.

Laure, 44, revealed: “Life at home with Nigel is very good.

"The hoovering though? He definitely doesn’t do any of that.

"The one thing he is very good at though is doing the dishes — he’s really, really good at that.”

Camp leader Nella Rose, 26, made 59-year-old Nigel her chief pot washer in the jungle before her exit, after he criticised other campmates’ efforts with the dishes.

And Laure laughed: “That is the best job for him!”

Since The Sun revealed how Laure would be jetting off Down Under to back Nigel on the ITV show, she has been swept up in a media frenzy.

Confirming their romance for the first time, Laure revealed going public has worked out just fine.

Chatting as she strode through airport arrivals, wearing a khaki two-piece and a white linen shirt, Laure said: “It’s been OK.

"It’s more logical than just hiding, supporting him from behind doors, which doesn’t make any sense.

“It would have been a bit weird if I stayed silent.”

The pair met in 2007 when Laure was 28 and working as a waitress in Strasbourg, France

Nigel then appointed her as a parliamentary assistant and from there she was made PR director of his parliamentary group Europe of Freedom and Direct Democracy.

Sixteen years later, she is backing her man in camp, adding in earlier interviews: “I’m not a secret. I’m here, I do exist and I do support Nigel. It’s very important for me to say that.”

Laure has Nigel’s mother onside too. This weekend, Barbara Farage, who is thought to be in her late 80s, said of Laure: “She’s lovely. She’s a chic, French lady, who is good for him.

“She loves him to bits. She pays him attention and always wants to be by his side.”

But Nigel may be the last politician to grace the jungle for a while, as hosts Ant and Dec this weekend vowed to ban Parliamentarians, following last year’s appearance by former Health Secretary Matt Hancock.

Answering questions from fans on their live video Jungle Club, Dec said he would “put a motion through” for there to be no politicians on the show in 2024 — and Ant agreed.

Dec read aloud that a viewer suggested “Rishi Sunak next year” and said, stony-faced: “I think we should do a year without any politicians.”
