Scarlette Douglas reveals that I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! campmate Matt Hancock has not been added to their group chat on WhatsApp.

Scarlette Douglas has revealed that Matt Hancock has not been added to the group WhatsApp chat for this year's I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! campmates.

The former health secretary was this year's most controversial addition to the lineup - and his presence did ruffle some feathers in camp as the celebs struggled to deal with their preconceptions of him.

After leaving the jungle, Mike Tindall set up a group chat for the class of 2022, but according to Douglas, he decided to leave Hancock off the list.

She told the Daily Star: "I'm not the admin of that WhatsApp group so if Mike 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."

Douglas also revealed that the campmates have already started discussing a reunion gathering, adding: "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.

"Ultimately we're all going to try and stay in touch, which is important. We've all got our little WhatsApp group and we're all messaging all the time so hopefully that doesn't die down."

Former England footballer Jill Scott was crowned the winner of the series last week, with Owen Warner finishing second and Hancock placing third.
