I'm A Celebrity... fans' anger at Boy George 'elephant in room' after Matt Hancock swipe

I'm A Celebrity... fans have been pointing out Boy George's dark past after he made comments about Matt Hancock's recent history. The pop star had said he would have left the jungle after the Health Secretary's arrival, if his mother - who was in hospital during the Covid pandemic - had died.

Fellow campmate Scarlette Douglas told the serving MP that "people are angry and upset" with him "because a lot of things that happened" during the Covid pandemic. Mr Hancock's role during the Covid-19 pandemic ended in disgrace and his resignation after he was photographed in a clinch with his lover.

And angry and upset I'm A Celebrity viewers have been threatening to complain to Ofcom over Mr Hancock being on the show. However, others suggest they are being hypocritical, because they are ignoring Boy George's past.
