I’m A Celeb winner Danny Jones poses with former King of the Jungle Sam Thompson as they enjoy a surprise meeting at This Morning studios

Danny Jones posed with Sam Thompson outside of the This Morning studios on Monday.

The McFly singer, 38, won the latest series of I’m A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here! and Made In Chelsea star Sam, 32, was crowned King of the Jungle himself  in 2023.

The meeting appeared to be a one of surprise as the pair left the building in White City, and the pair wasted no time in throwing their arms around each other.

Since his jungle success, Sam has become a regular on ITV‘s flagship magazine show, and features as a showbiz correspondent and competition presenter.

Sam helped judge the show’s most viral moment of 2024, and it was decreed that Sarah Jossel brushing her hair with tin foil had been pulled in over 30 million views.

Meanwhile, Danny was on the famous sofa to give his first interview as victor and opened up about how the whole experience took him by surprise.

He told hosts Craig Doyle and Sian Welby: ‘It was amazing, everyone was so lovely. they had good hearts and were good people.

‘When you were down, they comforted you, and everyone was up for a laugh as well.

‘I had that guitar in there, because I play guitar every day, and that was the highlight for me just seeing people’s reactions.

‘For people to vote for me, probably hungry and tired, I am so thankful because you’ve got no perspective of how you’re doing in there. It’s really real in there, we talk about deep stuff.

‘You have the lowest of lows and the highest of highs, and I never thought that it would be like that. I was vulnerable.

‘As men, we say we’re going for a pint and we go ‘Good man, yeah!’ talk about the football or the rugby or whatever but we don’t get that quality time to go down to a deeper level.

‘And that’s what we did in the jungle because we had no distraction of phones or anything. It was just a beautiful stream, an amazing jungle, campmates to talk to.

‘And you get deep.’
