ITV I'm a Celebrity's Scarlette Douglas 'won't be friends' with Matt Hancock

Scarlette Douglas didn't hold back when asked about her relationship with Matt Hancock during her time on I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here.

The latest evictee from the Australian jungle appeared on Good Morning Britain today to talk about her time on the ITV show with Richard Madeley and Susanna Reid. She spoke about how gutted she was to be second out of this year's competition before the conversation moved to how she got on with other campmates.

Speaking of Matt Hancock's arrival, Richard said: "And it seemed to us watching that when he first walked in you were all shocked, horrified and didn't actually like him. But in the end, he didn't just win stars, he won you over didn't he?"

She replied: "Yeah... I mean, listen, he definitely won stars for camp. He came in and everybody was shocked to see him in there. For me, I had to pull him aside and let him know how I was feeling about him being in the jungle."

The A Place in the Sun host added: "We just had to get on, be friends and be a family in camp otherwise it's not going to work. For me, when Matt came in I said 'there are a lot of things that you've done that people aren't happy with'.

" In the jungle we will get on, but outside it doesn't mean that we are going to be best mates at all. In here, we will just work together as a team and that's all we can do."

Richard asked her: "Do you like him?" Scarlette replied: "I like his get up and go, I like the fact that he has drive and is determined. I like that he won't give up on anything. But those attributes I like in general.

"So, do I like Matt Hancock specifically? I don't think I had enough time to really get to know him because when he came in he was trying to win us over."
