MATT Hancock and Seann Walsh are set to enter the I’m A Celebrity jungle tomorrow. 

The former health secretary, 44, will be heading into the Snake Rock camp alongside comedian Seann Walsh, 36, after the hit ITV series was thrown into chaos when Olivia Attwood, 31, was forced to leave on medical grounds last night.

We understand that Matt and Seann will be teased at the end of tonight’s show before they make their way into the separate camp on Wednesday. 

A TV insider said: “Matt and Seann will be arriving together into the camp which is away from the other celebrities. 

“Producers have been planning the perfect way to introduce the pair into the show and it will be TV gold when the campmates see Hancock.”

Snake Rock and Croc Creek have famously battled it out in previous series to win stars before uniting to create one big camp.

It comes after Love Island beauty Olivia suddenly fell ill on Sunday night.

The reality star, who has opened up in the past about her ADHD, panic attacks and crippling anxiety, was checked over by medics after just 48 hours in the Australian jungle.

Producers then deemed it unsafe for her to continue.

HOAR can reveal that she begged to be allowed to rejoin her campmates, including Boy George and Mike Tindall.

However the “heartbroken” beauty had no option but to fly home yesterday.

A source told HOAR: “Everyone is just so sad for Olivia.”

On tonight’s show Dec said: “As you might have heard, unfortunately Olivia Attwood has left the jungle for medical reasons and sadly won’t be returning.”

Ant then seemed to nearly let slip the full details, adding: “Now, she does feature in tonight’s show which was filmed before she accidentally . . . we’re very sad to see her go and we wish her well.”

She should be able to keep her fee, reportedly between £100,000 and £125,000 as it was not her decision to leave.

The show source told HOAR: “The health and safety team is second to none and they immediately checked Olivia over, but because the situation needed further investigation they had to call time on her I’m A Celebrity journey.

“She was absolutely gutted. This was a long time coming for Olivia and she was ecstatic to be cast. She begged the team to be allowed back in but ITV just couldn’t take the risk.”
