Angry Ginge's sister has made a heartfelt revelation as her brother vies for the I'm A Celebrity crown. The social media sensation from Manchester is tipped to claim the King of the Jungle title as the ITV show draws to a close.

Now his sister has revealed just how much this journey means to her brother, whose real name is Morgan Burtwistle.

"I knew it was on his bucket list," sister Tasha revealed. "Something he never thought he'd actually get to do, so I was just really happy for him."

Tasha got a glimpse of jungle life earlier this week when family members surprised the celebrities.

She's now bursting with pride over her sibling's accomplishments. She confesses she's delighted with how far he's progressed in his career, declaring he's "smashing it", reports the Mirror.

Tasha admits watching her brother on television has been "amazing and honestly hilarious," insisting "he's surprised me with all the things he's done in there". She beamed: "I couldn't be any prouder of him."

Regarding potentially winning the programme, Tasha discloses she understands exactly what victory would signify for the star. "He's gone in as 'the streamer' and look at him now!" she exclaimed, noting her brother wouldn't have anticipated such triumph.

She also weighed in on the notorious sweet-gate incident. Ginge, Aitch and Kelly Brook had secured 20 sweets for the camp.

Nevertheless, they cunningly chose to retain half for themselves, devouring them before heading back to base. Tasha confessed that it was merely her brother's mischievous side showing.

She stated: "It was literally the one thing we told him not to do though! But I guess that's what makes it even funnier."

After Kelly was voted off the show, she attempted to stir things up in camp by revealing the trio's cheeky antics. Upon hearing this, Vogue Williams declared there were "snakes in the camp".

Aitch admitted during his exit interview on Saturday that he could have caused more disruption if he had wanted to. However, he humorously pointed out that the three celebrities had a perfect excuse due to their success in winning Jack Osbourne his letter from home.

Aitch was among the favourites to win the entire show according to bookmakers. His unexpected departure has paved the way for Ginge, say the bookies.

Some online fans are speculating that his exit was also planned.

One irate viewer, reflecting the sentiments of many, posted on Twitter/X immediately after Ant and Dec announced the result: "I AM SHOOK."

Another added: ""The gasp I let out, like there's just no way. "Several fans proposed a theory explaining why the 25 year old rapper ended up in fourth place. They suggested: "I think people thought Aitch would be safe so didn't vote for him.

"Others concurred: "Everyone must have just thought he was safe without voting," wrote one user. Another commented: "Surely the only reason Aitch is out is because everyone used their vote for someone else expecting him to be safe. "

I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here concludes tonight at 9pm on ITV1, ITVX and STV Player.
