He said: "I just came to say bin all the presents you've got because Jill's won.

"You might as well just bin it," he said in the humorous video before the clip ends.

Queen of the Jungle, Jill previously reminisced with fellow contestant Charlene White about their experience in the jungle and described as a 'beautiful' moment, was 'edited out' of the show, and featured Jill and Owen. Charlene said: "There were so many bits that weren't shown but I think one of the most beautiful moments of us as campmates was when you and Owen created the jungle 11. You gave us all our positions on the football field and what was amazing was that Jill and Owen made football shirts out of origami with the bags that our rice and beans came in."

Charlene continued: "We all had our own little shirts with our names on them that you made using charcoal from the fire with our numbers on them and it was that attention to detail that gave us a great camp experience which was amazing."

Remembering the moment, Jill replied: "When I realised there were 11 in camp straight away I was like, 'We've got a football team'. We gave all the campmates their own little shirt."
