Tony Hadley leaves I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here


Tony Hadley has been voted off ‘I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here’.

The Spandau Ballet star became the seventh celebrity to leave the camp after ‘Dragons’ Den’ investor Duncan Bannatyne left the jungle yesterday (03.12.15).

Speaking after his exit, he said: "Looking at me there [when he entered the jungle], I was a right porker. I feel absolutely fantastic; I’ve been trying to keep fit in there; I feel really really good. I feel great."

During his time in the Australian jungle, the ‘Gold’ hitmaker famously clashed with Lady Colin Campbell but insists it wasn’t personal when he chose to refuse to be a servant to her and some of his fellow campmates.

He added: "It had nothing to do with who it was. It was just – I don’t wear bell boy hats. I just felt that was one step too far; it was a bit too humiliating. I mean, you could say all of the trials are humiliating but I think they’re challenging and they’re testing at a mental level.

"But putting a bell boy hat on and serving someone until whatever time in the morning… that wasn’t my style."

Now he has departed the show, Tony would love to see Kieron Dyer win.

He said: "I’d love Kieron to win. He’s a funny funny guy and I know he’d love it."
