Boy George has said he would have left I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! after Matt Hancock’s arrival if his mother had died in hospital during the pandemic. The former health secretary, 44, made his highly-anticipated entrance to the Australian jungle during Wednesday evening’s episode of the hit ITV reality show.
During a conversation with TV presenter and property expert Scarlette Douglas, the Culture Club frontman, whose real name is George Alan O’Dowd, said: “You know, beginning of the pandemic my mum was in hospital. I wasn’t allowed to see her.
"I thought she was going to die. I was tweeting Greenwich hospital going, ‘Please look after my mum’.
