ITV I'm A Celebrity fans applaud Jill Scott for being 'real' as she makes 'awkward' confession in front of Mike Tindall

The 2022 series of I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here is coming to an end in just a few short days where one of the remaining celebrities will be crowned king or queen of the jungle. The five campmates still in the running are MP Matt Hancock, comedian Seann Walsh, Hollyoaks' Owen Warner, former rugby player and royal Mike Tindall and Lioness Jill Scott.

In the coming days viewers are expected to see four celebrities take on the beloved Celebrity Cyclone trial as well as the remaining three campmates each take on a trial of their own to win their all-time favourite meals.

Last night's show (November 24) saw Radio X DJ Chris Moyles narrowly miss out on a spot in the final five as he was the latest star to receive the least amount of votes from the public.

Prior to his exit the presenter took part in a trial alongside Owen in a bid to beat his one-star record after his first disastrous trial.

Moyles was blindfolded whilst steering Owen, who was hanging from a crane, whilst he attempted to retrieve stars and throw them into a postbox.

But it appeared disaster struck twice as the pair ended the trial with just one star, leaving their campmates hungry after a tiny meal was shared between them.

Later in the show the celebrity campmates sparked an interesting conversation as they discussed their dream dinner party.

The celebs each went round and revealed three people who they would invite - one person to bring back from the dead, a fictional character and who they'd have as their naked chef.

The former health secretary Matt Hancock admitted he would like invite JFK as his dead person, Pocahontas as his fictional character and Marilyn Monroe as his naked butler, much to the amusement of his fellow campmates.

Lioness Jill Scott then took her turn, revealing she would love to bring Princess Diana to her dream dinner party.

Explaining her choice, the footballer said: "Princess Diana is just such an inspirational woman and I just want to hear the whole story."

Many viewers praised the England star for her choice calling her 'real'.

@Elizabeth4Ellie tweeted: "Jill is so real for saying Diana. i love her #ImACeleb."

@weiszcolman said: "Jill scott saying one of her dream dinner guests is princess diana she’s so f***ing real. one of us!!!."

@teenamassam added: "I’m with you their Jill, I’d love Princess Diana.. and also David Beckham as the naked chef."

But other fans of the show found her confession extremely awkward given that Mike Tindall, husband of royal Zara Tindall who is the daughter of Princess Anne, King Charles III's sister, was sitting right beside her.

@scall78 said: "Jill choosing Princess Diana in front of Mike Tindall awks #ImACelebrity."

@TheRealDeclanK1 wrote: "Funny how we didn’t see Mike’s face when Jill mentioned Diana #ImACeleb."

@ghoulieeee tweeted: "Not Jill talking about Diana in front of Mike," alongside a shocked meme.

@RyanJL said: "Roy Keane, Princess Diana and Joey Tribbiani as Jill's dinner party guests is INCREDIBLE. Mike stayed very quiet during that."
