Danny Jones suffers I’m A Celebrity catastrophe seconds after winning ITV show

McFly star, Danny Jones, was crowned King of the Jungle in Sunday’s finale, but things didn’t go to plan when he was given the iconic wooden sceptre in a jaw-dropping gaffe

I’m A Celebrity…Get Me Out Of Here! winner, Danny Jones, was left red-faced just seconds after being crowned King of the Jungle.

The McFly star, 38, beat Coleen Rooney and Reverend Richard Coles to the top spot and looked delighted to be handed the iconic wooden sceptre on Sunday.

However, just minutes after the credits rolled as the smash-hit show wrapped up for another year, Danny appeared to have broken the prized possession in a jaw-dropping gaffe.

 

As he desperately tried to fix the top back onto the wooden staff, Unpacked host, Joel Dommett, caught him in the act, asking: “Oh no Danny! What have you done?” Giggling, the musician replied: “Has anyone got any glue?”

The mishap went down a storm on Instagram, with many viewers responding with laughing emojis. They also said how pleased they were that Danny had been crowned King of the Jungle after three weeks Down Under.

Despite his mishap with the sceptre, the singer could set his sights on huge new ITV roles following his I’m A Celebrity success. The McFly star became emotional when hosts Ant and Dec revealed him as winner as Danny said: “It feels amazing, I can’t even talk.” He went on to thank fans for their support and joked it felt nice to ‘be liked’. He said: “Thank you from the bottom of my heart. I gave my all in there, it’s a lovely feeling to be liked. Thank you so much, I appreciate this so much.”

Following his jungle win, many fans are waiting to see what Danny will do next. ITV are reportedly keen to sign the star to one of its main shows alongside the likes of Joel Dommett and Bradley Walsh.

Danny is already a judge on The Voice alongside his bandmate Tom Fletcher but could soon add more shows to his CV. “Danny is the embodiment of everything ITV loves,” a source told the Sun. He’s fun, family friendly and incredibly popular. Watching how popular he was on I’m A Celeb made him a key target for other shows they have coming up. Danny is a brilliant musician, but he is also great on TV.”

They said ITV is hoping he will sign for another series of The Voice and think there will be other shows “he could be perfect on”. Before this year’s I’m A Celebrity winner was announced, Danny spoke about his time in the jungle, revealing: “This is totally insane. I’ve learned so much about myself, and that’s because the camp mates were unbelievable.

“They made it so easy for us to get through the hard times. I’ve had some of the hardest times I’ve ever had, some of the highest highs, and just tried to have fun along the way.”
