Another said: “You can absolutely feel the awkwardness from Ant & Dec having to talk to him, especially Ant. It’s forced and awful to watch, they are clearly uncomfortable and not falling for his bulls***. Just wishing it over, same as most of us. #ImACeleb.”

During his exit interview Matt once again said one of the main reasons he did I’m a Celebrity was to show the public the person behind the politician.
Shortly after Matt’s arrival in the jungle – which saw him grilled by his campmates – Ant and Dec suggested viewers may never see the ‘real’ him.
Speaking on their Instagram live, Dec began: “There is a lot of very open and honest conversations going on which I think is what we all wanted to see when we heard that Matt was going in.”
He continued: “We wanted the other campmates to have the opportunity to really grill him in an enclosed environment, I suppose.”

Ant then added: ‘And I know Sue said “Oh, we’ve drawn a line under it now”‘.
“I don’t think they have,” interrupted Dec, with his co-presenter then adding: “I don’t think so, especially Chris Moyles, he said he still doesn’t feel like he saw the real Matt, and I kind of agree, will we ever see the real Matt? I’m not so sure.”
“I don’t know,” agreed Dec, shaking his head.
