Matt Hancock came third in ITV's I'm A Celebrity...Get Me Out Of Here! however his jungle experience isn't over yet.
Meeting him at the end of the red carpeted bridge was his girlfriend, Gina Coladangelo, however she has since left with the MP staying behind.
According to the Mirror, the MP for West Suffolk left his partner to fly homo solo as he remains in Australia to cash in on his new found fame following his controversial appearance on the reality TV show.

Whilst some celebrities who took part in the show left, Gina jetted out of the country with his campmates, while the former health secretary leaves his constituents awaiting his return a little while longer.
Mr Hancock's extended stay in Australia comes following his refusal to comment on exactly when he plans to return to work as an MP, and his team's inability to confirm if the politician will be donating his whole fee for appearing on I'm a Celebrity to charity, like it has been implied.
Discussing Mr Hancock's decision to let Gina fly home solo, a source told the Mirror: "Matt was due to go home on Tuesday afternoon Australian time with lots of the other contestants and Gina.
"But he left her to fly home alone so he could make more money with a big interview. Gina was lucky winner Jill and Shelly took her under their wing and they stayed with her in the queue."
Mr Hancock, 44, was also pictured after leaving the jungle as he couldn't keep his hands off his girlfriend once he returned to the JW Marriott Hotel on the Gold Coast. The pair then wore white and enjoyed a drinks reception at the hotel before joining the other contestants for a three hour dinner party at La Luna restaurant at the Marina Mirage.
Asked when he would be returning to work, Mr Hancock declined to answer and simply smiled and held Gina's hand as they headed back to their room.
Writing about his decision to do the show days before he entered the Jungle, Mr Hancock claimed: "As soon as my time in camp is up, I will return to Suffolk to hold a surgery where I will catch up with my constituents and discuss matters of concern."
However he left camp around 8am on Monday morning in Australia and will not fly home until late on Tuesday. He has been out of contact by phone or email for three weeks but still felt he had time to devote Monday to relaxing.
Mr Hancock's stint in the jungle was been slammed by millions across the country due to multiple reasons, including; the fact he is still a sitting MP (receiving £84,144 annually), his behaviour in government, his handling of the Covid-19 pandemic and questions surrounding contracts issued to private companies during Mr Hancock's time as Health Secretary.
Before leaving his constituents in West Suffolk to appear on the ITV reality TV show, Mr Hancock explained his reasons for heading Down Under - claiming he would be "making a donation" to charity of the back of his jungle stint. Mr Hancock's team are unable to confirm how much of his I'm A Celebrity fee will be donated.
Representatives for Mr Hancock confirmed "the donations will be worked out on Matt's return" and explained how they are in contact with both the British Dyslexia Association and St Nicholas Hospice who they claim are "very happy with that arrangement".
But when asked multiple times if Mr Hancock plans to donate the entirety of his I'm A Celebrity appearance fee, rumoured to be around £400,000, the Mirror received no confirmation regarding exactly how much the MP intends to donate to charity and good causes.
