Rapper Aitch has shared a touching reunion with his sisters after his unexpected exit from I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! The Manchester-born star, whose real name is Harrison Armstrong, finished in fourth place during Saturday's show, narrowly missing out on a spot in the final.
Family First: A Heartfelt Hotel Reunion
Following his elimination, the 25-year-old was photographed back at the Australian hotel where his family is based. In sweet snaps, Aitch was seen helping his 16-year-old sister, Gracie, out of a minibus that had returned from the jungle camp. He proudly posed with his arms around Gracie and her twin, Hattie, before heading back to luxury.
This reunion echoed an earlier, emotional moment broadcast earlier in the week, where his sisters surprised him in the jungle. During that filmed exchange, Gracie, who has Down Syndrome, asked her brother if he would take her to Greggs once he left the camp. While the family may be disappointed he didn't win, Gracie is now set for her promised trip to the beloved British bakery chain.
Fan Fury and Final Three Revealed
Aitch's departure came as a major shock to viewers, who had considered him a frontrunner and the biggest contender to beat his close friend, social media star AngryGinge, to become King of the Jungle. The final three contestants were revealed to be Shona McGarty, AngryGinge, and Tom Read Wilson.
Fans took to social media platform X to express their disbelief. Reactions flooded in, with one user stating, 'Aitch and Ginge should have been our final two,' while another declared, 'Aitch gone? British public you're mad.' Many shared memes and expressed shock that the rapper hadn't made it to the last stage of the competition.
Jungle Reflections and Sweet-Gate Confession
In his exit interview with hosts Ant and Dec, Aitch described being reunited with his sisters as 'unreal,' saying he was 'gobsmacked.' He reflected positively on his jungle experience, valuing the time away from distractions like his phone.
The rapper also broke his silence on the infamous 'sweet-gate' scandal, where he, Kelly Brook, and Ginge secretly ate milk bottle sweets meant for the camp. Addressing Kelly's decision to reveal the secret just before her own exit, Aitch joked, 'I need a word with her. She tried to snitch and she didn't even snitch good.'
When asked who he wants to win, Aitch threw his support behind fellow Mancunian AngryGinge, saying, 'that crown needs to come back to my home town.' He also addressed rumours of a romantic spark with campmate Shona McGarty, which had been a key storyline, though other eliminated contestants later dispelled the speculation.
Aitch's main motivation for entering the jungle was to raise awareness for Down Syndrome. His appearance on the show marks a move into the mainstream for the Brit Award-winning artist, who rose to fame in 2018 with his hit 'Straight Rhymez'. It was also revealed this week that he is in talks for a £1 million clothing deal with BoohooMAN.
