We may only be less than a week into the jungle, but Babatunde Aleshe may have just delivered the best line of I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! of the series.
The comedian was talking to Matt Hancock, who had just returned to camp after a brutal bushtucker trial which saw him collect all 11 stars.
The former health secretary and comedian Seann Walsh joined the likes of Mike Tindall and Jill Scott after Love Island’s Olivia Attwood made an early exit.
On his second day in the jungle, Mr Hancock was pressed by Babatunde about his love life following the infamous cheating scandal which led to his resignation.
Speaking to Aleshe, the politician admitted he’s still with Ms Colangelo despite the consequences of his actions being ‘really tough’.
Mr Hancock said: ‘I messed up and I fessed up. I resigned and it’s no excuse, but I fell in love, right? That also had a lot of other consequences obviously.’

‘You didn’t just “fall in love” you were grabbing booty bruv!’ Aleshe joked.
He later said in the Bush Telegraph: ‘Matt was grabbing the booty bruv, man grabbed the bunda on front page!’
Of course, viewers were left in hysterics over the comment.
‘MATT HANCOCK GRABBING BUNDA SOMEBODY GET BABATUNDE AN AWARD,’ one viewer laughed.
Another wrote: ‘Babatunde is a legend for that conversation with Matt Hancock’ while a third penned: ‘“You didn’t just fall in love you grabbed the bunda” Babatunde is the gift that keeps in giving ffs.’

After Mr Hancock called for the comedian to ‘give over’, he continued: ‘That’s been hard, I obviously brought it on myself, so yeah… it’s been tough.’
‘Are you still with the lady?’ Aleshe asked, prompting Mr Hancock to confirm his relationship, replying: ‘With Gina? Yeah very much so, yeah, totally.’
‘That’ll be the best thing about being kicked out, seeing her on the bridge,’ he added.
I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! continues tomorrow night on ITV at 9pm.
