Coronation Street's Andy Whyment responds to I'm A Celebrity exit as he says he 'did the right thing'

Coronation Street star Andy Whyment has addressed his exit from I'm A Celebrity... South Africa, saying he 'did the right thing' after fans told him he shouldn't have left. The soap favourite delighted viewers of the ITV reality show spin-off when he made a late entrance last month.

His return to the jungle - or should we say South African bush as ITV swapped locations for the first-ever pre-recorded edition of I'm A Celeb - came three years after he lost out on the crown, finishing runner-up in the 2019 series to former EastEnders star Jacqueline Jossa.

I'm A Celeb fans were quick to tip him as the winner of the new series, however, as viewers saw on Monday night (May 8), that won't be the case. Andy and Georgia 'Toff' Toffolo became the latest celebs to leave the camp after being locked in a head-to-head battle with Myleene Klass and Jordan Banjo.
