Is it a sneaky alliance straight out of a reality TV thriller, or just two mates having each other’s backs? YouTube star Angry Ginge might have hatched a clever strategy to dominate *I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here!* alongside his rapper buddy Aitch—and his closest pal is spilling the beans.

The 24-year-old streaming sensation, whose real name is Morgan Burtwistle, was already tight with fellow Mancunian Aitch (25) long before they traded city life for the Aussie jungle. Now, the dynamic duo are the bookies’ top picks to snag the crown, tied as joint favorites. But could their unbreakable bromance be more than meets the eye?

Enter Freddy Doneorrell, Ginge’s 23-year-old best mate and a social media whiz from Salford, Greater Manchester. In an exclusive chat with The Sun, Freddy hints at a pre-jungle pow-wow that could be the key to their success—though he swears the pair would keep it under wraps. “I don’t actually know anything on that side, but they definitely would have spoken,” Freddy reveals. “They’ll naturally lift each other up in there.”
Freddy paints a picture of pure synergy: “When you’ve got two real mates with that kind of chemistry and mutual respect, it just gives them both a boost all the way through, so I think that’ll massively help. You don’t really see two very good friends go in.” And if any strategy was whispered before takeoff? “If anything was discussed beforehand, it would’ve been about looking out for each other and keeping spirits high. That’s just who they are. I think they both want the best for each other and 100 per cent they will want to help each other through to the final.”
With five million followers glued to his every move, Ginge has exploded onto the *I’m A Celeb* scene, charming viewers far beyond his infamous online rages. Famous for flipping out over football video games under the handle Angryginge13, he’s kept his cool in camp so far—forming unlikely bonds with stars like comedy legend Ruby Wax, 72.
But don’t expect the fury to stay bottled up forever. Freddy insists Ginge’s “angry” vibe is mostly showbiz flair: “I think it takes a lot for him to really get angry, to be fair. I think he’s just showing his real personality, the fun, kind, genuine side. That’s who he actually is in real life, and now the public gets to see it.”

Even without his daily fix of five Red Bull cans, Freddy bets Ginge will thrive caffeine-free: “Even without caffeine, he’s not someone who blows up. But honestly, the ‘angry’ persona is mostly for entertainment. In real life he’s chilled, thoughtful and a really good guy.”
As the series heats up, Freddy predicts plenty of heartwarming twists: “I think we’ll see a lot more laughs from him during the series. I think we’ll see an even nicer side to him than you see online. I think there’ll be a few soppy moments in there for him. He might be Comforting Ginge by the time he gets out.”
Freddy, who’s been ride-or-die with Ginge for nine years, is all-in on his pal’s shot at victory. “He’s a very determined person, so I think he would do anything when it comes to the trials. He’s smashing it. I think he’s doing really, really well. Morgan very much wants to just be himself with everything he does. So whether that’s just on a TV show, on a YouTube video with his mates, he’s always the same. He’s definitely got the personality to win it.”
So, is this masterminded teamwork a “dirty game” or a “genius move”? With proof in their pre-show chats and unbreakable bond, Ginge and Aitch could be cruising straight to the final—proving that in the jungle, loyalty might just be the ultimate survival hack. Stay tuned; the drama’s only beginning!
