Rumours of a blossoming jungle romance are electrifying the I'm A Celebrity camp, with rapper Aitch and EastEnders actress Shona McGarty at the centre of the speculation.
Manager Gives Seal of Approval to Potential Couple
The gossip gained significant traction when Aitch's own manager and close friend, Via Culpan, publicly endorsed the potential pairing. Arriving at Brisbane Airport on Tuesday, November 26, 2024, Culpan was asked about the rumours and confirmed she believed the two would make a "nice couple" if they decided to pursue a relationship outside of the jungle.
This external backing from a key figure in the rapper's life has fuelled hopes among viewers that the connection glimpsed on screen could develop into something more substantial once the celebrities return to the real world.

The first pairing revealed was Kelly Brook and Vogue Williams. The unexpected announcement was met with gasps from the celebrities, with some visibly nervous, hiding their faces in their hands at the prospect of the intense confrontations ahead.
