Manchester rapper, Aitch, is the fourth contestant to touch down in Brisbane Airport ahead of this year’s I’m A Celebrity which will air on Sunday.
Aitch, 25, whose real name is Harrison Armstrong, arrived Down Under wearing a full black and white Adidas tracksuit, insisting that he was in Australia on ‘tour’ as the contestants still cannot confirm they are going into the Jungle.
The Rain rapper told the Daily Mail: ‘I was gonna say that I’ll miss the rain in the UK but it’s raining here so nothing’s changed much.
‘I’ve been to Australia plenty of times, I love it over here. I don’t mind snakes, snake on toast.’
The artist who hails from New Moston in Manchester revealed that he was going to miss his little sister, Gracie, who has Down Syndrome, ‘Even though she’s a little s*** I’m still going to miss her.’

And then in a message to his fans, he said: ‘I want to shout them all out and say that I’ll be back home soon and if I’m not then someone needs to have a word.’

Aitch, whose real name is Harrison Armstrong, has had nine top 10 hits and became a viral sensation after he struck up a very close connection with YouTube creator Amelia Dimoldenberg, when the pair met on her Chicken Shop series.
Despite neither of the pair ever confirming the relationship, Amelia did appear in his Baby video, appearing as his date, which sent fans into a frenzy.
Aitch who is from Manchester, won the British Hip Hop/Grime/Rap Act at The Brits in 2023 and has over six million followers across all his social platforms and YouTube.
It’s this broad following and the fact he is younger which is thought to have had an appeal on ITV bosses.
