Former A Place In The Sun presenter Scarlette Douglas, 35, has added fuel to the fire of feud rumours swirling around her I’m A Celeb campmates; Mike Tindall, 44, and Matt Hancock, 44. Scarlette revealed the 2022 I’m A Celebrity stars have already created a group chat to stay in touch after the grand finale, and exiting the Australian jungle to return to their normal lives.

However, the disgraced MP is noticeably absent from the cast’s WhatsApp group at present, and has not yet been invited to join.

Scarlette spilled that Matt’s exclusion from the chat is down to royal family member Mike, who is the group admin.

Discussing how she is keeping in contact with her former campmates at the UK premiere of Will Smith’s upcoming film Emancipation on Friday, Scarlette also hinted that Matt may just be “too busy” to join the WhatsApp group at the moment.

She said: “I’m not the admin of that WhatsApp group so if Mike (Tindall) wants to invite him he absolutely can, but it’s not me to put the invitation out so we’ll see what happens.

“He might be busy you never know, he’s doing a lot of stuff, he’s got a lot of press coming up so he might be too busy.”

Express.co.uk has contacted a representative for Mike for comment.

Despite the apparent WhatsApp snub, Scarlette has insisted that she and her I’m A Celeb pals will be reuniting again soon.

“We’ve all said when we can, because we’re all over the country, we’ll get together and have a meal for Owen because he loves food,” the Channel 4 presenter said.

 

Scarlette also teased group plans to go and see their co-stars, comedians Seann Walsh and Babatunde Aleshe, perform on stage when they return to their stand-up tours.

“Ultimately we’re all going to try and stay in touch, which is important,” the campmate added.

Scarlette also admitted that she hopes the friendship between the I’m A Celebrity 2022 stars doesn’t fizzle out over time.

She divulged, according to The Mirror: “We’ve all got our little WhatsApp group and we’re all messaging all the time so hopefully that doesn’t die down.”

Since leaving the jungle, Scarlette went on to share her true feelings about Matt joining camp after being under fire for his handling of the Covid pandemic.

The TV star revealed that when she saw the MP arriving during the ITV show, it felt “absolutely weird”.

However, Matt recently shut down rumours that his relationship with former rugby player, and husband of the Queen’s granddaughter Zara Tindall, Mike had turned sour.

The former health secretary insisted that when Mike landed on him during the Celebrity Cyclone, he wasn’t at all offended.

Matt told MailOnline: “When he [Mike] landed on me on the Cyclone I took that as a badge of honour. 

“He is a former England captain. He has won the world cup. 

“That wasn’t him being tough on me. That was just larking about.”

Before Matt was eliminated from the jungle, Mike was also seen hiding the MP’s top branded with his name and voting details, after accusing him of putting his clothes on display to gain more votes from viewers.
