Ex I'm A Celebrity stars reckon 'desperate to win' Aitch will show his 'frustrations' in the jungle

Gillian and Scarlette have a lot of jungle experience between them…

I’m A Celebrity star Aitch has been named by two former campmates as the one star who could rub his jungle pals up the wrong way.

Gillian McKeith appeared on the show in 2010, and again on the All Stars spin-off in 2023. Scarlette Douglas, meanwhile, appeared on I’m A Celebrity in 2022. And, speaking about the currently crop of campmates, it seems both ladies are worried rapper Aitch may be the one to cause friction.

Their comments come after viewers predicted Aitch and his pal Angry Ginge would be the stand-out stars of the series…

I’m A Celebrity sar Aitch ‘really wants to win’

Speaking on behalf of Paddy Power Bingo, we asked Gillian which of this year’s campmates she’d be least likely to get along with.

At first, Gillian said: “At this early stage, they all seem easy enough to get along with.”

However, she then added: “But Aitch really wants to win – desperately – so he might get irritated with me.”

She then added: “I’d probably try to win him over with a silly rap song. But we haven’t yet seen a Shaun Ryder-type character who causes real chaos yet.”

‘He got a bit frustrated’

Scarlette, meanwhile, also singled out Aitch as someone who could cause friction – and she’s going on past experience, it seems.

The A Place in the Sun presenter filmed The 1% Club Soccer Aid special with Aitch, and said his frustrations showed during filming.

Speaking on behalf of Sky Vegas, Scarlette Douglas was asked who she could see becoming embroiled in conflict. She told us: “I’m going to say Aitch. He’s the one I can see causing a bit of friction.

“I did the 1% Club Soccer Aid special with him, and I remember he got a bit frustrated with something. So if anyone’s going to be vocal about anything, I think it could be Aitch.”

On launch night, however, Aitch was quick to keep his pal Angry Ginge in check. He pulled him aside for a word when he was criticising Jack Osbourne’s fire-lighting skills. So perhaps he could become the camp peacemaker…

Tonight’s Bushtucker Trial

Aitch takes part in tonight’s Bushtucker Trial (November 18), with the rapper immersed in tunnels and surrounded by snakes.

With a preview clip showing hosts Ant and Dec laughing their heads off at him, will he snap tonight when under pressure?
