KING of the Jungle Angry Ginge has told how he nearly quit the show just two hours in.

The 24-year-old YouTube star opened up to the Mirror hours after he was crowned the winner of I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here!

In his first interview as he settled back into life outside the jungle, he revealed how he considered walking out almost immediately because of the food - discovering there was only one piece of steak to share among four campmates.

He later thought about quitting a second time after his tears in the Bush Telegraph, but kept going to make his mum Michelle proud.

Opening up about his struggles on the ITV show, Ginge said: "I was debating it on the very first day, and I'd only been in there for a couple of hours. It was late when I'd got in, and I was expecting a steak but it was one steak between four of us.

"It was a shock. That was the real eyeopener - forget the snakes around the head.

"And then it was just getting later and later, and our other campmates hadn't joined us yet, and I was just sat there thinking, 'this is going to be tough, it's going to be really tough'."

He said that things improved slowly but by the time he got to day 10, he was struggling again. Ginge, whose real name is Morgan Burtwistle, admits: "Jack Osbourne warned me that day 10 would always be the hardest and I just woke up emotional that day. I just said to him, I just don't feel that good today."

Viewers later watched Ginge break down in the Bush Telegraph as he explained how he missed home.
