The rapper is in for a surprise as a special guest has secretly flown to Australia to support him in the jungle
ITV I’m a Celebrity contestant Aitch is in store for an emotional surprise in the jungle as someone special to him has secretly flown over to Australia to support him.
The rapper’s family touched down Down Under within the past 24 hours, providing a much-needed boost to the star, who previously had only his manager there for moral support.
And his beloved sister Gracie was spotted today (December 3) at the celebrity accommodation as ITV captured Kelly Brook’s arrival following her elimination as the fourth campmate to leave the jungle. She was filmed in conversation with Kelly, who warmly greeted her: “I have heard so much about you…can I have a hug.”
Kelly continued: “We heard your song last night. It was wonderful. Your brother misses you so much. I bet you can’t wait to see him.”
Aitch shares a tight relationship with his twin sisters, Gracie and Hattie, who at 16 are a decade his junior, with Gracie, who has Down Syndrome, holding a particularly special place in his heart.
He penned his popular track My G as a tribute to Gracie, with all proceeds going to the Down’s Syndrome Association. During Tuesday evening’s programme, his rendition of the song moved viewers to declare he deserved victory, reports the Mirror.
One supporter wrote on X: “Aitch has to win. He’s such a lovely man,” whilst another commented: “Bet Aitch’s sisters are so proud of Aitch right now.” A third gushed: “Oh I love Aitch so much.”
His fellow campmates were deeply moved by his performance of My G at The Jungle Arms, with Ruby Wax particularly admitting the moment had brought tears to her eyes. Aitch has revealed to Eddie in camp about the special relationship he shares with his sisters, especially Gracie.
Speaking about how Gracie was born with Down Syndrome, he described her delight at watching Ellie Goldstein on Strictly Come Dancing, with Gracie telling him when Ellie appeared on screen: “She’s one of God’s special children like me.”
Before entering the Australian jungle, Aitch disclosed he was taking part in the show to champion awareness for people with Down syndrome. He said: “I’m not only just doing it for people with Down syndrome, I’m doing it for people around as well. I don’t want anyone to be like disheartened or feel as if they do find out someone in the family’s got Down syndrome. It’s a blessing.
“You’re going to have the best time of your life as long as you’re spending it with that person. My main thing, really and truly, is because I don’t want Down Syndrome to be seen as a negative thing. I don’t want anyone to go like, oh yeah, my kid’s got Down Syndrome, or my sister’s got Down Syndrome.
“And anyone to have the reply of, ‘Oh, I’m sorry to hear that’ because it’s just definitely not the case. They’re the best people in the world.”
I’m A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here continues tonight at 9pm on ITV1 and ITVX
