Ahead of his hosting duties this evening, Will has even committed to dying his hair red for the cause.
Will said: "It might have been a little bit silly on my behalf but when I went live on TikTok with Comic Relief as one of the pushes to reach a goal, I said if I reach 50,000 likes on the live, I would do it.
"I said, 'come on guys, if we hit this goal, I will dye my hair red,' and I didn't realise how much 50,000 likes was and the fans hit it in about ten minutes."
Will told us that he and Jessie had been to purchase some red hair dye and he even managed to convince her to follow suit and undergo her own hair transformation.
He added: "Jessie has been such a great support throughout the Comic Relief campaign.
"Don't hold me to this but I think she is going to be dying her hair red as well!"
