Phillip was clearly delighted with Holly's hilarious jungle antics during the finale, and congratulated her after she finished the show, writing: "That's it!! @hollywills you have been AMAZING!!! Now... you're a celebrity, get yourself out of there, I've got the margarita’'s on ice. Safe flight home." Phillip also took to the social media site to shut down reports that he wanted to go into the jungle himself. Sharing a screenshot of an article hinting that he was interested in taking part in the reality show, he replied: "No I didn't. I said I'd love to do Celebrity Cyclone!! Big difference looool."

I'm a Celeb viewers have begun to speculate whether Holly will be returning for a second series of the show, or if Ant will return to the role in 2019. Speaking about his recovery, Phillip told the Mirror: "I think Ant is concentrating on himself and so no we're all letting him get well. Both Ant and Dec and myself have also got a WhatsApp group for when they were out there. It took Holly a day or two to settle in. I got the first WhatsApp from her on the group during a commercial break and thought 'That's it, she's comfortable.'"
