Phillip Schofield halts This Morning for breaking I'm A Celebrity news

Phillip Schofield called a halt to Tuesday's This Morning to bring some breaking news on I'm A Celebrity concerning reports that Matt Hancock is going into the jungle.

On Monday evening, ITV officially confirmed the I'm A Celebrity line-up, after much speculation, with the likes of Boy George, Jill Scott and Mike Tindall all ready to go into the jungle, alongside the likes of soap stars Sue Cleaver and Owen Warner and Loose Women host Charlene White. And late on Tuesday morning, rumours surfaced that former Health Secretary Hancock will be joining them in Australia as a shock late arrival and this year's 12th campmate.

An insider told The Sun : 'Matt is a sensational signing for the show as producers love a star with a story to tell - and they always hope they'll spill the beans round the campfire," adding "He's the latest in a long line of figures from the political sphere, including MP Nadine Dorries, Stanley Johnson and MP Lembit Opik."
