I'm a Celebrity host Ant McPartlin shouts 'what were you thinking?' in shocked reaction as Boy George is evicted

On Tuesday night (November 22) eighties pop icon Boy George was forced to say his goodbyes as he became the fourth celebrity to get the boot from the I'm A Celebrity ...Get Me Out Of Here! jungle.

And while the singer told hosts Ant McPartlin and Declan Donnelly that he was happy his time was up it's clear they didn't share his joy, with Ant despairing: 'What were you thinking?' at viewers.

George, 61, who had a few run-ins with other campmates during his time in the Australian jungle said: "Being honest, I'm happy to go today," he smiled as he settled down for a chat about his time in Australia. Asked why he had decided to take part in the ITV reality show he said: "For me it was like, 'can I do it?' It was a lot tougher than I thought," reports The Manchester Evening News.

During his time in the jungle, George had made it very clear that he had been struggling with sharing camp with former health secretary Matt Hancock, who was a late addition to the team. As part of his leaving montage, the hosts showed the awkward moment the pair cleared the air with George confessing: "I have been hating on you I'll be honest."

And George told Ant and Dec about Matt: "I thought having Matt in here was really challenging and I had to tell him what I thought." But he added about the West Suffolk MP, who was suspended by the Tory party for taking part in the show: "He's just a person. He's mucked in. He was doing a lot to help everyone. Everyone was kind and thoughtful, there's a lot of kindness in there."

After George walked over the famous rope bridge, Ant and Dec switched to their live Instagram feed and Ant was clearly unimpressed. Dec could be heard saying: "Sad times guys." And speaking directly to fans into the camera Ant fumed: "What were you thinking man?" And he quipped: "You b****es!" I loved Boy George."
