Sam Thompson has revealed he ‘doesn’t have anything to show’ for winning this year’s I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! as he was forced to his return prize. 

The radio presenter, 31, was crowned the winner during the final, beating Tony Bellew and Nigel Farage, where he came out with over 50 per cent of the votes. 

Sam previously revealed he was so desperate to live out his childhood dream on the show, that he was willing to sign up for free, but hoped to take home a souvenir. 

But despite winning himself the iconic garland complete with flowers and foliage, the TV personality explained that he was ‘stripped’ of the props. 

Speaking to campmate Josie Gibson on Monday’s This Morning, he revealed: ‘I didn’t get to keep anything! They wouldn’t let me keep anything!’

Sam continued: ‘I had to give the sceptre back. I really wanted to bring it through airport security because it’s quite big.

‘But yeah, I don’t have anything to show for it.’

Speaking to The Times after flying back to the UK from Australia, Sam admitted he would have been a ‘very, very easy negotiation’ as he would have done ‘anything’ to be a part of the show.

He also struggled to hide his surprise when he learned campmate Nigel Farage was paid £1.5 million to take part in the show.

The GB News host’s signing was controversial to many viewers, and he went onto finish in third place.

Discussing his dream to take part in the show, Sam said: ‘Mate, I would have done it for anything! I would have been a very, very easy negotiation. I would have paid them to be on it.

‘It wasn’t monetary, or a career move, I genuinely wanted to go and eat camel’s penis. I wanted to meet Ant [McPartlin] and Dec [Donnelly], they’re my heroes, the most iconic people of my life.’

Sam added that he ‘never had a down day’ during his time in the jungle, though he did fear that he was ‘annoying’ to other members of the camp with his ‘high energy.’

After learning of Nigel’s vast show fee, Sam struggled to hide his surprise, saying: ‘Was he? Bloody hell! I didn’t have a clue. You could buy five houses for that!’ 

He added that he did ‘recognise’ Nigel when he first entered the jungle, but he still saw him as ‘a really fascinating guy.’ 

Admitting he felt like ‘a competition winner’ on the show, Sam confessed he had ‘massive impostor syndrome’ in the jungle.’

Radio presenter, Sam was crowned the winner on Sunday night’s final , beating Tony Bellew and Nigel Farage , where he came out with over 50 per cent of the votes.
