Scarlette Douglas of Good Morning Britain has lashed out at her former campmate Matt Hancock.
Last year, the TV presenter and former health minister competed on I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! alongside Boy George and Mike Tindall, finishing third behind Owen Warner and Jill Scott.
Scarlette and Kate Garraway reminisced about their time on the reality show when a fresh set of celebrities and Nigel Farage arrived in Australia for the 2023 series.
While Scarlette from A Place in the Sun stated she had fond recollections of the programme, she was relieved to no longer be in contact with Hancock.
‘We had so much fun, obviously I was teaching Matt Hancock to dance,’ she began, before confirming she has ‘definitely not’ had any contact with him.
‘Everybody other than him,’ she replied when host Ben Shepherd asked who she was in contact with.
Scarlette went on to say that all the other contestants were in the WhatsApp group, before Kate recalled how Caitlyn Jenner exited their series’ group as soon as ‘the plane took off’.
‘I’m still mates with her,’ Kate added, while Scarlette had the opposite reaction to no contact with Hancock.
‘It’s been great,’ she savagely said.
Scarlette has previously admitted she was unsure about how genuine Hancock was in the jungle, saying: ‘It’s really hard in the jungle because there are cameras on you 24/7.
‘So as much as you hope you get the real version of anybody, you don’t know because people could be putting on a front and trying to make sure that they come across a certain way.
‘So yes it was quite difficult when he first came in and yes everyone was like, “What do we do here?” but ultimately he got stuck in and he helped us and he won stars and that’s what we needed in the jungle.’
Scarlette added that when he first arrived, she pulled Hancock aside. ‘I said, “In here we are a family and we’re going to work together, whether we’ll be friends outside of the jungle I don’t know but in here we’re a family, and as a family and as a camp we do well.”‘
I’m A Celebrity returns to ITV on Sunday, November 19, at 9pm.
Good Morning Britain airs weekdays from 6am on ITV1.
