I’m A Celeb’s Boy George makes sly dig at campmate continuing bitter feud

BOY George took a sly dig at one of his I'm a Celebrity campmates following their bitter feud.

George, 61, and Matt Hancock took on the first eating trial of the series in tonight's show - much to the iconic singer's amusement.

During the task former Health Secretary was forced to much on a number of disgusting dishes, including camel penis.

As Matt chocked it down, George laughed: "I've dreamed of this moment."

It comes after George broke down following Matt's arrival in the jungle earlier this week.

He first confided in Scarlette Douglas about the emotional reason he feels uncomfortable about being on the show with Matt, revealing it came down to his mum Dinah O'Dowd's battle with Covid and his inability to be there for her in hospital.

Boy George said: “You know, beginning of the pandemic my mum was in hospital. I wasn’t allowed to see her. I thought she was going to die.

"I was tweeting Greenwich hospital going, ‘Please look after my mum.’ I used my name, I was like ‘Please look after my mum.’

"And they did, she was fine… I feel like, I don’t want to be sitting here like I’m having fun with him. 

"It’s difficult for me because, you know, had something happened, if my mum had gone, I wouldn’t be here now. I would have gone when he walked in.” 

Boy George in the Bush Telegraph then broke down in tears as he reflected on the new arrival.

“If I had lost my mum, I would go," he said.
