Lorraine Kelly slams Matt Hancock on I'm A Celebrity saying 'what's the point of him being there?' | The Sun

LORRAINE Kelly has slammed Matt Hancock on I'm A Celebrity saying 'there's no point in him being there, let's be honest.'

It comes after it was revealed the controversial politician could be ruled out of the notorious Bushtucker trials on medical grounds during his stint on I'm A Celebrity.


Lorraine was less than impressed that Matt could be excused from the gruesome trials as he has 'trenchfoot,'from keeping his feet in the water for too long doing SAS: Who Dares Wins.

Speaking on her ITV show on Thursday morning, Lorraine said: "It has been suggested that he might not be doing some of the trials.
