Lorraine Kelly made a subtle dig at Seann Walsh and Matt Hancock just before the pair entered the jungle for I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here!.
The legendary presenter took a sly swipe at the pair during her ITV programme on Tuesday (November 8) during a chat about the ITV show with former I’m A Celebrity star Peter Andre and entertainment journalist Lucy Cave.
Lorraine was discussing Love Island star Olivia Attwood’s shock exit from the show on medical grounds, and was keen to know whether showrunners would bring in a replacement to fill the “gap” in camp.

The host asked Lucy whether the show would throw former health secretary Matt Hancock and comedian Sean Walsh into camp earlier.

Lucy predicted they’d bring the pair into camp together as she replied: “I think they will bring them in quicker. Sean Walsh and Matt Hancock, probably together. They normally seem to bring the…”
But Lorraine quickly cut her off and compared the two as she quipped: “If they have a lot in common…”, prompting the studio to erupt in laughter.
Although it’s not completely clear, it would appear Lorraine was referencing to the fact that both Sean and Matt have made headlines in the past with their infamous cheating scandals.

Sean was caught back in 2018 when photos emerged of him kissing his Strictly Come Dancing partner Katya Jones, who at the time was married to Strictly dancer Neil Jones.
Sean was in a relationship with Rebecca Humphries and both relationships came to an end after the affair came to light.
Former cabinet minister Matt had an affair with his long term friend and political aide Gina Coladangelo at the time that he was married.

He shocked the country last June when footage emerged, published by The Sun, of the pair kissing whilst social distancing restrictions had been in place due to the Covid pandemic.
A show spokesperson said it wasn’t safe for Olivia to return to camp: “As a precautionary measure Olivia needed to leave the jungle to undergo some medical checks.
“Unfortunately, the medical team has advised it is not safe for Olivia to return to camp as there needs to be further investigation. She has been absolutely brilliant and she’ll be very much missed on the show,” they concluded.
“Olivia was involved in a medical drama overnight. She really wanted to go back into the camp but medics won’t let her.”
