Joe Swash declared bankrupt

After being crowned King of the Jungle last year, you would think that Joe Swash's earning potential would have sky-rocketed, but not if the latest headlines are anything to go by...

Apparently Joe owed the Inland Revenue £120,000 and managed to pay all but £20,000 of it.

Joe, who is madly in love with actress girlfriend Kara Tointon, is currently in Australia and wasn't present when London's HIgh Court of Justice officially declared him bankrupt.

His spokesperson has said, "Joe has not been around to sort this out. 'The bankruptcy should never have gone through. He's not in financial difficulty - he's fine."
