NEWS… BUT NOT AS YOU KNOW IT
Piers Morgan blasted Matt Hancock’s hefty I’m A Celebrity…Get Me Out of Here! sum as the politician’s controversial stint intensifies.
The former health minister caused quite the stir when it was revealed he’ll also be heading into the jungle as a late arrival alongside comedian Seann Walsh, joining fellow members of the cast including royal Mike Tindall, singer Boy George, Love Island star Olivia Attwood and radio DJ Chris Moyles.
Although bookies predicted that he’ll outdo any other celeb in terms of being voted for all the Bushtucker trials, it’s been claimed that he might be ruled out of some of them on medical grounds, after reportedly getting trench foot while filming SAS: Who Dares Wins.
It was also reported that the disgraced politician will be getting a cheque of around £400,000 for his time on the show, which is back in Australia after two years away.
