Appearing on Good Morning Britain today, the former politician was quizzed by Susanna Reid on whether or not the figure convinced him to do the show.

Nigel replied: "The money, of course, what’s wrong with that?

"I gave up a very successful career in the city of London - colleagues of mine are on the rich list, I never moaned, never complained.

"Is this the biggest pay check I’ve ever had? Yes it is."

Last night Nigel came third during the I'm a Celeb final - just behind runner-up Tony Bellew and King of the Jungle Sam Thompson.

After spending three weeks in camp Nigel was reunited with girlfriend Laure Ferrari on the famous bridge.

But while he was clearly overjoyed at the couple being back together, fans on social media joked that their embrace was lacking the usual level of love and affection.

"Nigel's wife couldn't have got away from him quick enough then," one wrote on X.

"Although even I will say, as a loyal follower, that bridge reunion with his girlfriend was so awkward!" another added.

A third joked that he "pushed her out the way" so she "didn't ruin his moment".
