I’m A Celebrity’s Sam Thompson has been crowned king of the jungle and viewers say it is a “well deserved” win.
The reality TV star joined the ITV hit show alongside 12 other celebrities and after three rough weeks in the Australian jungle he managed to win over the public with his energetic nature and loveable personality.
Sam was fighting back tears after his big win as he told Ant and Dec: “I feel overwhelmed, I didn’t even think I would get invited on the show.”
Asked if he had a message for voters, he said: “I am so grateful, I have dreamed of being on this show. You just made a boy’s dream come true.”
