I’m A Celebrity’s potential lovebirds Shona McGarty and Aitch shared another heartfelt moment on Friday night’s episode that saw the first campmate sent packing.
The pair were anxiously awaiting in Doomsville ahead of the next Bushtucker Trial after the camp was split in two following a challenge based on who won and lost.
Rapper Aitch, 25, took it upon himself to give actress Shona, 34, a little pep talk as she looked at a picture of her family ahead of the latest trial between the two camps.
She expressed her fears that she would let down their group after footballer Alex Scott, 41, put on a heroic performance in a recent eating challenge.
But Aitch was quick to offer up some sentimental advice about her family.
Aitch said: ‘Let’s be real, all them beautiful people in that picture you’ve got, all them people right, they don’t want you to not be immune so forget Alex, you’ve known her for two weeks.
I’m A Celeb ‘s potential lovebirds Shona McGarty, 35, and Aitch, 24, have shared another heartfelt moment on tonight’s episode ahead of the return of live trials
The pair were anxiously awaiting in Doomsville ahead of the next Bushtucker Trial after the camp was split in the last challenge based on who won and lost
‘Don’t do it for Alex, don’t do it for you, do it for all them people in that picture.’
There was a similar sense of apprehension in the other camp, Win City, which housed the winners of the previous trial.
Reality star Jack Osbourne, 40, admitted: ‘I pray it’s not an eating challenge.’
Comedian Ruby Wax, 61, was also feeling the pressure and admitted that she had got so worked up about competing against the other celebrities in Doomsville that she was ‘shaking’.
She told the Bush Telegraph: ‘I can’t explain how anxious I am because I’m very close to Tom and so it’s going to be difficult to fight him, seeing him eye to eye but I have to take him down!’
The sweet moment comes after Aitch revealed his biggest turn-ons and turn-offs in a video shared to Jamie Laing‘s Great Company Podcast Instagram account on Tuesday.
The rapper, who previously confessed he has a ‘soft spot’ for campmate Shona joined Jamie, 37, ahead of his I’m A Celebrity…Get Me Out Of Here! Jungle stint for an interview.
And during his chat with the former Made In Chelsea star, he revealed that he likes it when a woman isn’t aware of how ‘sexy’ she is.
Rapper Aitch took it upon himself to give actress Shona a little pep talk as she looked at a picture of her family ahead of the next trial and said she was to do it for them
When asked what turns him on, he said: ‘I like it when girls genuinely don’t know how sexy they are. I like that. I don’t like it when a girl walks in looking like she knows everyone would f**k her in here.
He added: ‘That will make me definitely not f**k you. By the way, I’m making it all sexual, I’m so sorry.’
Jamie burst into a fit of giggles as Aitch continued: ‘But yeah, I don’t like if someone walks in here now, and I could tell she felt like she was the it girl, I wouldn’t even look at her.’
The Daily Mail reported that Aitch reportedly split from his girlfriend, Lois Cottam, just weeks before heading into the Australian jungle.
And earlier in the week, when the rapper confessed his soft spot for Shona, viewers were left baffled as many believed he was still dating the psychology student.
However, it has now been claimed that the pair called time on their romance earlier this month, before Aitch – real name Harrison Armstrong – entered the jungle.
According to reports, the couple felt that after more than a year together, the relationship had run its course, so they decided to end things on good terms.
I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! continues tonight on ITV1 and ITVX.
