I’m A Celebrity viewers are buzzing after new reports claim Aitch was privately messaging Ella Morgan before entering the jungle — only for sparks to start flying between the rapper and Shona McGarty on-screen just days later.

According to insiders, Ella — known for making history as the first trans participant on both MAFS and Celebs Go Dating — was overheard telling friends at the London Beauty Awards that Aitch had been complimenting her and even suggested meeting up once he leaves the show.

A source told The Sun:
“Aitch told Ella he thinks she’s stunning — and she’s clearly into him too. They were already chatting about meeting after the jungle.”

The news dropped shortly after it emerged Aitch had quietly split from girlfriend Lois Cottam just weeks before flying to Australia. Ella herself ended her relationship with Alex James Ali back in January.

 Representing the UK rap scene

With millions of followers and a BRIT Award under his belt, Aitch has become one of the UK’s biggest stars — from viral moments with Amelia Dimoldenberg to a 10-month romance with influencer Lola Thompson.

But it’s his jungle journey that’s capturing attention now… and not just because of the Bushtucker trials.

 Jungle chemistry: Aitch & Shona McGarty

During a mid-shower chat with fellow campmate AngryGinge, Aitch confessed he had a “soft spot for Shona.”

Moments later, he was seen intentionally sitting beside her, flashing a grin and striking up a conversation about the day’s meal. What followed had fans screaming:

• intense eye contact

• giggling

• flirting disguised as small talk

• and even a spontaneous pillow fight

At one point, Aitch held Shona between his legs during their play fight, prompting her to laugh:
“Why are your thighs so strong?”

Even Ant and Dec couldn’t resist weighing in, with Dec telling viewers:
“It’s getting rather cosy in Doomsville, isn’t it?”

Fans quickly took to social media:

• “Aitch and Shona? I’m seeing chemistry!”

• “This isn’t editing anymore — this is real.”

• “He sees rainbows because Shona’s in pink underwear.”

• “Aitch and Shona are my new Roman Empire.”

 Meanwhile… Ella Morgan’s story heats up

Ella, 31, reportedly told friends Aitch had messaged her before the series began — praising her looks and leaving the door open for a future meetup.

Photos from the Beauty Awards showed Ella glowing as she quietly shared the details, with one insider saying she looked “excited and flattered.”

Daily Mail has reached out to both Aitch and Ella’s representatives for comment.

 Back in the jungle: surviving Doomsville

In Wednesday’s episode, Aitch and Shona failed the latest challenge and were sent to the dreaded “Doomsville” — the basic camp with no beds and no showers.

Despite the grim conditions, Aitch seemed delighted to be there…
or perhaps delighted to be there with Shona.

He even gushed:
“Everyone says it’s dark and gloomy, but I’m seeing the beauty in it.”

Fans instantly pointed out the obvious meaning behind “the beauty.”

 Shona’s jungle shower moment

Adding more fuel to the fire, Shona later stripped down to a pink bra and matching underwear for a wash in the basic shower — with Tom Read Wilson helping rinse her hair.

Aitch couldn’t look away.

 Jungle triangle?

Between Ella’s pre-show messages…
Shona’s newly developing chemistry…
And Aitch’s glowing confessions…

Viewers are now wondering:
Is this a full-blown jungle love triangle?
Or just harmless flirting under the Australian sun?

One thing’s clear:
Aitch’s love life is becoming one of the most entertaining storylines of the entire series.
