Matt Hancock will enter the I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! jungle later on Tuesday, it has been confirmed. The former health secretary, 44, is expected to join the original contestants in camp after spending a period of time in isolation.
It is understood his entrance will be teased by co-hosts Ant McPartlin and Declan Donnelly during Tuesday night’s show. Following his decision to join the reality series, Hancock had the Tory whip suspended and came under fire from across the political divide for opting to sign up at a time when Parliament is sitting.
Hancock has been given access to his phone and laptop during his isolation allowing him to continue working and stay in touch with constituents. Comedian Seann Walsh, who has been widely reported as the second surprise entry, is also expected to join the campsite shortly.
