A 2022 I'm A Celebrity...Get Me Out Of Here! campmate has revealed that one controversial campmate has been left out of a WhatsApp group chat which Royal family member Mike Tindall is the admin for. Property TV presenter Scarlette Douglas, who was second to be voted out of the show after Loose Women presenter Charlene White, has said former health secretary Matt Hancock is missing from the chat.
Matt caused controversy when he entered the jungle after he resigned as health secretary when he broke his own social distancing guidance by having an affair with his aide, and at first many campmates struggled to warm to him. Channel 4's A Place in the Sun star Scarlette admitted Matt Hancock had been snubbed from the group chat.
Scarlette said: "I’m not the admin of that WhatsApp group so if Mike wants to invite him he absolutely can, but it’s not me to put the invitation out so we’ll see what happens. He might be busy you never know, he’s doing a lot of stuff, he’s got a lot of press coming up so he might be too busy." as BirminghamLive reports.

Some viewers believe that Matt was bullied by members of the camp, including Mike, and pop star Boy George. Matt has spoken about the bullying claims and told MailOnline he "didn't feel bullied at all in the jungle".
He said: "I didn't feel bullied at all in the jungle. I formed an extraordinary bond with Seann Walsh in a short period of time, and then it took a few days to work through and develop relationships with the rest of the campmates."
"Some of them, I could tell, didn't take to me straightaway but it -softened over time. Being in the jungle also gives you lots of time to think about what really matters. I thought about how much I care for the people I really love."
