The battle for the title of “King of the Jungle” climaxed in a breathtaking moment. The British survival show ‘I’m A Celebrity Get Me Out of Here’ is not even halfway done, and the producers threw in a major surprise with two wildcard entries. One of these late entrants, Frankie Dettori is a respected figure in the horse racing community.

Frankie Dettori is on a mission to rediscover himself after retiring from the glamorous career of a jockey. Stooped beside a creek and washing dishes with actress Jamie Lynn Spears, he revealed how hard it was for him to walk away from the limelight. Here’s what he had to say!

Frankie Dettori’s soul-baring moment about horse racing retirement

Jamie Lynn wanted to know why Dettori took his time to retire from horse racing in spite of making an early announcement. The jockey walked her through his thoughts, saying, “Right, this is my last year, going to say my last goodbyes.” However, there was more left for him to accomplish. I’m A Celebrity shared a small clip from their interaction on X with the post that read, “Frankie reveals his retirement regret to Jamie Lynn”. During the short conversation, the otherwise tight-lipped Frankie Dettori appeared in a chatty avatar.

He said, “Of course, like in any sport, when you’re at top level the margins are so small. It’s a bit like Formula 1. Why is one driver faster than the other when they’ve got the same cars?” This way, he explained the thrill and further said, “I was born in racing, my dad was a jockey. I was practically born on a horse really. Then I had good teachers… the rest is history”. Here on the conversation took a more somber turn as Frankie Dettori revealed his deepest regret concerning his retirement.

The regret of Frankie Dettori

Frankie Dettori was rethinking his legacy at the start of 2023. He said, “I got to the beginning of the season, I thought I’m 52, I’ve had a great life riding, and I’m on the top at the moment. I might as well stop at the top.” When this realization dawned on him, Frankie Dettori knew he had to quit.
