The ex-athlete’s 93-year-old mum, Esther Jenner, will not be watching the ITV series as Caitlyn joins her campmates Down Under, but thinks viewers will love her and is confident she will be a success on the star-packed reality show.
In a world exclusive interview, Esther blasted: 'We have a Survivor [show] here in the United States, I never watched it, I’ve skimmed over it, or seen previews and I decided that I don’t really care for that.
'That’s not entertainment to me, to see somebody frightened. I think she could spend a lot more pleasant times on the golf course!
'I’ve tried not to think of Caitlyn being over there [in Australia]. It’s three weeks… a long time to go without hearing from her.
'When she’s in the States she calls me almost every day, so I’ve got to live without hearing her.'
Speaking from her home in Lewiston, Idaho, Esther says she’s heard of how mentally challenging the show can be, saying: 'It’s like a competition, I guess, and there are not very many people that get through it. I don’t want to be thinking about that at 1 o’clock in the morning, I cannot sleep.
'I have no idea [why she's doing this]. I don’t ask her questions to get into her mind or how she feels about this or that. My big worry is [she may] get bitten by a snake or a poisonous insect. I’m afraid of snakes anyway, even if they’re not poisonous.
'She had to tell me she was going on this show, and I said, "I never liked the show here in the United States and I didn’t watch it!"'
When the subject turned to the terrifying Bushtucker Trials, including eating cockroaches and being trapped in confined spaces with creepy crawlies, Esther said: 'I don’t what you to say anything that’s going to frighten me or upset me, I’m better off not to know.
