Kerry Armstrong's emotional confession to Danny Green about her son
Kerry Armstrong broke down in tears as she revealed her son suffers brain seizures after being coward punched a couple of years ago.
The 60-year-old acclaimed actress sobbed as she told boxer Danny green on I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! last night that Callum, now 21, was kicked in the head by a gang of boys.
The pair were discussing Green’s charity – his Coward's Punch campaign, which aims to stop one-punch assaults – when Armstrong made the emotional revelation.

The actress recalled: “My two young ones had a terrible dent when they were younger.
“Cal went to stick up for a kid and Jai, his twin brother, wasn't near him. By the time he got into the room, Cal was getting his head kicked in.”
Struggling to hold back her tears, Armstrong said Jai's personality “changed forever” after he witnessed his brother get beaten up.
“Do you know one of my boys, his personality changed forever after that. What he saw, he saw his brother just kicked and he couldn't - he wasn't strong enough to help,” Armstrong said.
A quiet Danny replied, “That would be hard to see, for a brother to see. And not be able to do anything about it. It would be very tough.”
“I know. And the one who got kicked in the head. He's the one who has the brain seizures, he is really...” Armstrong said, before she began to sob.
Armstrong has twin boys - Jai and Callum – with Mark Croft, and has an older son, Sam, 27, with Mac Gudgeon.
