Judi Love was quick to call out Matt Hancock 's leadership skills, or lack of, as camp leader in I’m A Celebrity Get Me Out of Here!
The Loose Women panellists were left shocked after Wednesday night’s (16 November) instalment of the ITV reality show, that saw Lioness Jill Scott be talked over by her male campmates as she volunteered for the trial.
Former Conservative MP Matt, put himself forward for the trial without even asking if any of the other celebrities would like to do it as Jill could be heard saying: “I don’t mind doing it.”
As the leader of the camp, Kelly Holmes was unimpressed that Matt didn’t demonstrate his ‘leadership skills’ by asking if anyone else would like to do the trial, as he’d already done so many.
“She would probably in normal situations be right up there, and I don’t know what it was about that,” Kelly began.
“Matt Hancock put his hand up again and again,” she continued, “And he should have been a proper leader, a true leader, he should have said right who hasn’t done and who wants to do a trial? I’ve done loads, right, Jill, Mike, whatever, he should have led that.”
Judi replied: “You said it right, if he was a proper leader.”
Despite the celebrities picking Mike Tindall MBE, hungry boy Owen Warner and Matt to do the trial, snippets ahead of tonight’s episode do see the Lioness take part in the fun-fair themed tasks.
The panellist’s criticism of Matt comes after there have been over 1,000 Ofcom complaints about the former Health Secretary competing in the reality series.
Meanwhile, England footballer, Jill, has become a fan-favourite amongst viewers for supporting Owen and her cracking one-liners, and she has even been dubbed “Queen Jill.”
“Can we now collectively agree Jill is queen of the jungle,” one fan tweeted, as another agreed: “Jill is such an angel.”
Before other fans cited some of her one-liners including “Just be clear are these guidelines, or rules?” in reference to Matt saying he broke his own guidelines with an affair, but not the rules or laws set out.
And another Matt-related quip included after their run around the camp, she said “If he collapses, I’m not giving mouth to mouth” and left everyone laughing.
