Ant and Dec always retain a neutrality when it comes to the I’m A Celebrity camp mates, putting personal feelings aside with the exception of the odd joke or 10.‘I think it’s very difficult not to [feel that way],’ Dec told‘We were all affected by decisions that he made and situations he created, so it was very, very difficult.

‘I kind of wanted to hear – now that he’s no longer a politician, and wasn’t doing his pivots in interviews – his side of the story, and his point of view.‘I personally thought it was a really really interesting booking. And I was interested in hearing what he was like, and what things were like from his point of view.’

Despite the backlash, Hancock still finished in third place, beating the likes of Boy George and Loose Women’s Charlene White.Hancock’s reality TV career isn’t over just yet as he’ll be appearing on SAS: Who Dares Wins later this year.
