Ex-health secretary defends appearance on TV show and denies he broke law by embracing aide during lockdown

Matt Hancock has said he did not “primarily” go on I’m a Celebrity … Get Me Out of Here! for his £320,000 fee, adding that his £10,000 charitable donation was a “decent sum” after his appearance on the reality show.

Hancock gave a donation to the St Nicholas hospice in Suffolk and the British Dyslexia Association after his appearance, saying it was “more than my MPs’ salary” over the time he was in the Australian jungle. He conceded there had been “a discussion and negotiation over the fee” and denied that the fee had been increased after he initially refused.

Hancock has also earned £45,000 for taking part in Channel 4’s Celebrity SAS: Who Dares Wins, which has not yet been aired.
