But, after a lot of speculation about a feud between Matt, 44, and the other stars, former rugby player Mike has appeared to confirm the politician was never actually in the group.

Speaking to The Sun at the Legends of Rugby dinner 2023, sponsored by Nordoff Robbins, he said: "Of course I’d chat to Matt again - why wouldn’t I?

"I think there’s been a miscommunication with that, no one has left the WhatsApp group.

"I’m actually seeing Sue [Cleaver] tomorrow, and I’ve seen Sue a few times and spoken to Baba [Aleshe] and pretty much spoken to everyone.

Well, we try to but it’s not easy. You always have these grand plans when you’re in the jungle but you come back and remember what life was before."

And it's not just Matt who's been at the centre of the feud rumours - Scarlette Douglas recently accused Chris Moyles of "ghosting" her.

Scarlette explained how she felt that they'd bonded on I'm A Celeb but complained: "He doesn't really get back to me."

The A Place in the Sun presenter opened up about Chris, 48, on Johnny Seifert's  podcast.

She said: "So Chris and I had met on the Ant and Dec Tour, so when I saw him, I was like, I've met you before.

"We've got a mutual friend, I am the voice of Capital Xtra and you are on Radio X next to the Capital Xtra studio And he's like, No way. So we had a really good bond since when we were in there.

"And then since we've come out, I kind of message him a bit, and he doesn't really get back to me."

She added: "So if you're listening, Chris, can you please reply to my voice note?"
