I’m a Celebrity…Get Me Out Of Here star Charlene White is set to take a swipe at fellow campmate Matt Hancock in tomorrow evening’s Coming Out show.
Though all of the celebrity campmates have now departed the Australian jungle, fans of the ITV reality show can still look forward to one more episode.
The 2022 Coming Out Show will follow each celebrity after they were voted out and returned to civilisation in an ITV1 special with hosts Ant McPartlin and Declan Donnelly.
A first look at the special on Thursday night sees Loose Women host Charlene reacting to being the first celebrity booted from the Australian jungle.
It is revealed that the first person the newsreader rang after her elimination was her dad, who comments that he thought former Health Secretary Matt Hancock would have been the booted first out.
Taking a dig, Charlene replies: “It turns out I’m less popular than Matt Hancock, dad, who knew?!”
This comes amid swirling rumours of a feud among this year’s line-up of celebrities, particularly given that a number of stars have failed to follow the West Suffolk MP on social media.
Yet Ant and Dec have declared I'm A Celebrity 2022 ‘the best series for years’ and admitted the inclusion of Matt Hancock was ‘interesting’.
Asked about the series, Ant said: “Yeah it was the best for years. Loved it. Absolutely loved it.
“A good winner in Jill, she is great isn't she? I think her or Owen, he would have really loved the win, but we were all really happy she won and would have been if it was vice versa.”
Dec added: “They were a really great bunch. There was lots of laughs, I love George and Seann and Babatunde and I just thought there was a really lovely bunch this year.”
Quizzed about Matt Hancock, Dec said: “Yeah, well that was an interesting one, wasn't it? Yeah, he did very well in there. Obviously coming third.”
Asked if he was nervous about interviewing him, he added: “It was a bit of a different one, but no, not very nervous because, you know, it was all within the context of the show. So yeah, that was really interesting.”
Ant would not be drawn on his opinions about MP Hancock, who was paid a reported £400,000.
The Coming Out episode of I’m A Celebrity airs on ITV1 on Thursday, December 1 at 9.15pm.
