Matt Hancock set to take home £400,000 for I'm A Celebrity jungle stint despite furious backlash

Matt Hancock left everyone stunned after announcing he would be taking part in I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! 2022.

The former Health Secretary is set to take home an eye-watering £400,000 for his jungle stint down under. The ITV show, which is returning to Australia for the first time in two years after the coronavirus pandemic, is set to see a bunch of celebrities battle it out for King or Queen of The Jungle.

Mr Hancock is ditching his day job as an MP representing his constituents at Westminster, to head to the Aussie outback. The MP has become one of the highest paid signings of the show, as in comparison Noel Edmonds was reportedly paid £600,000 to take part.
