Viewers have speculated that the real reason people are voting for him is to wind up the "woke brigade" who hate that he is still in there.

One fan wrote: "#ImACeleb please keep voting for Matt because it’s driving the woke insane just Elon Musk taking over Twitter is driving them bats. The entitled can’t figure out how is Matt surviving over the elitist bullies."

Another posted: "#ImACeleb So pleased Matt is still there! Loving seeing the woke brigade go all Chucky!"

A third said: "Weirdo woke leftards in meltdown again. Come on Matt. #ImACeleb"

"I don't watch #ImACeleb and I don't admire Matt Hancock, but one of the funniest things reading the reports on it is the #woke Media and Twitter outrage that Hancock is still in the jungle while 5 others have been voted out by the Great British Public in front of him," another tweeted.

Another echoed: "He is hardly entertaining, dull as hell and a bit creepy. This is an entertainment show not a political show. It looks like some people are voting for him because they think it will upset 'woke' people or they are just evil #ImACeleb"

Chris became the sixth person to be axed from the show last night.

Before that Babatunde, Boy George, Corrie's Sue Cleaver, Scarlette Douglas and Charlene White were booted off I'm A Celebrity.

It has left fans questioning why Matt is still in the jungle.

Now fans who have been voting for him have explained their decision.

One Tweeted: "I was not a fan of Matt Hancock back in covid times, I understand it must be awkward to have him in camp, what I have been watching is certain campmates are just acting like vile bullies."

"This should not be tolerated it's not ok to bully anyone, he is just taking it and just getting on with it, this year was awful to watch, I hope when they get out and watch this back and hope they will walk in shame!"

Another said: "Bullying at the very least, whatever anyone has done it does not give anyone the right to create a pack environment , there is only Owen and Sean that have acted like adults."

They continued: "Matt at present is a camp mate like the rest. Do they have no understanding of mental health?

"I am not a fan of any Tory minister but right now Matt gets my vote every night and hope he wins.

"I worry about how happy he s trying to be and to fit in.

"Instead of saying he's not being genuine maybe think it’s because he's wearing a mask to conceal his mental state."

After the votes have been counted, Ant and Dec will crown the new King or Queen of the Jungle on Sunday night.
