I'm A Celeb's Matt Hancock finally talks about dyslexia but viewers say too little too late

Matt Hancock has finally mentioned his dyslexia on I'm A Celebrity - nearly two weeks after he first joined the show.

The Tory MP insisted his primary reason for going on the show was to access younger voters who might not access politics in the more traditional way and also raise awareness of dyslexia, which he said was an important cause for him. After joining the jungle over a week ago, he has yet to mention his dyslexia which he was diagnosed with when he was 18.

Mr Hancock insisted talking about his dyslexia was much more important than the £400,000 he is said to be being paid for his jungle stint. But rather than mention it, he has been taking part in trials with snakes, rats and other jungle critters and even enjoyed an all-you-can-eat beach BBQ before angering campmates and viewers when he came back and asked for more of their food.
