His snaps included one of him posing with actress Judi Dench.
Was Seb planning to run for Parliament?
Despite claims that Seb was planning to try and use the snap election to join the House of Commons, a spokesman for Jeremy said the rumours were "categorically untrue".
The rumours claimed Seb was getting ready to mount a campaign for Liverpool Walton - but a spokesperson denied this.

How did Labour perform in the General Election?
Jeremy Corbyn and Labour have increased their number of seats by 31 to 261 after being written off by most observers when Theresa May called the snap election.
Although the Conservatives won the most seats (and around 49 per cent of the popular vote), it finished 12 seats down on the previous election and losing the majority.
The LibDems finished with 12 seats – four up on 2015 – but former leader Nick Clegg lost in Sheffield Hallam.
The Scottish Nationalist Party finished with 19 fewer seats, with former first minister Alex Salmond among the casualties. IndyRef2 is now looking unlikely.
It was a bad night too for Ukip, who failed to win any seats. Leader Paul Nuttall subsequently resigned.
