This year's series of I'm A Celebrity was particularly notable for the inclusion of disgraced former Health Secretary, Matt Hancock.

The Suffolk MP caused an uproar when he signed on to enter camp, after he was previously exposed for his affair with political aide Gina Coladengelo during the pandemic.

But despite this, Jill admitted that she stays out of politics, so she and Owen took the time to get to know Matt in the jungle away from his Westminster persona.

She admitted: “Going into it, my knowledge of politics isn’t high or anything so me and Owen were probably asking a lot of questions and learning things for the first time.
