ITV I'm a Celeb fans confused as they ask 'why am I liking Matt Hancock?' after he slips on way in while Seann Walsh can't stop laughing

I'm a Celebrity fans have spoken out over Matt Hancock controversially entering the I'm A Celeb camp, and it wasn't what they were expecting. News of the arrival of the West Suffolk MP in the Australian jungle had been met with widespread anger.

As viewers watched Matt, the former health secretary at the time of the coronavirus pandemic, getting to know his fellow jungle latecomer Seann Walsh, many found themselves changing their minds. They took to Twitter to ask what was going on.

@VinnieHerrett asked: "Why am I liking Matt Hancock?" @ReginaP72295785 echoed: "I’m quite liking Matt Hancock." @ElliottClarkson commented: "If I’m A Celebrity makes me end up liking Matt Hancock (which, I’ll be honest, is the case so far) then I don’t know who I am anymore."

Fans were amused to see comedian Seann 'deliriously' laughing to find that he had been joined by Matt on his jungle adventure. And Matt, who accidentally slipped over on the rope bridge on the way into camp, ended up singing Ed Sheeran's Perfect after finding that they are both fans of the singer. @RobynLRP wrote: "Seann constantly laughing at Matt Hancock is classic."

@jamieecollinsx said: "I am DECEASED at Seann just point blank laughing in Matt’s face." @harleyrosex wrote: "Laughing so much at Seann just laughing at Matt." And @emmawruns commented: "Seann Walsh delirious laughing at Matt Hancock every 10 seconds whilst they sing Ed Sheeran and can’t walk over bridges."

Their fellow celeb campers were dumbfounded to see the new arrivals. DJ Chris Moyles said: "One of them is Seann Walsh and the other one, I've got to go back and double check." While Coronation Street star Sue Cleaver said: "I don't know what to say."
