Aitch, the charismatic rapper, is reportedly flying solo after his recent split from psychology student Lois Cottam just before entering the show. Meanwhile, EastEnders star Shona McGarty called time on her engagement to musician fiancé David Bracken back in November. With both celebrities freshly single, the jungle air has been thick with speculation about a potential love match. Fans have been shipping the pair hard, dreaming of a fairy-tale romance emerging from the Aussie outback.
But Kemi Rodgers, a close observer in the camp, is pumping the brakes on all the hype. In an exclusive chat with The Sun, she dropped a bombshell: it might be way too early for anyone to start planning wedding bells. “A few days ago, Shona opened up about how she only recently got out of a really serious relationship, and it was so heartbreaking to see her upset,” Kemi confessed. “I felt a bit guilty because I was like, ‘Oh, I really like them and, basically, get together’.”
She went on to deliver the shocking reality check: “But sometimes it doesn’t have to be like that, we don’t have to be getting our hats, there’s no wedding on the line here. But a little flirt and sometimes just getting on and having fun is all it needs to be. I’m hoping that they just stay really good friends after this.”
Even though Kemi admits she initially sensed some chemistry, she’s not ready to fuel the fire. “I don’t know. I think it wouldn’t be fair to be like, ‘Yeah, they are they going to get together’ because she has just come out of a big relationship. So it’d be unfair for me to say that.” As an insider with front-row seats to the drama, Kemi insists she doesn’t have any more juicy details than the rest of us watching from home.

The plot thickens when we rewind to last week, where camp chatter about engagements hit Shona like a ton of bricks. While Kelly boasted about multiple proposals and Aitch shared a hilarious fan story, Shona was left reeling from her fresh heartbreak. She quietly slipped away to confide in Tom Read Wilson during washing-up duty, admitting the topic was too raw. “I think you’ve done a really sensible thing,” Tom reassured her, offering words of wisdom that the perfect match would come at the right time.
Fans, ever the romantics, have been buzzing that Aitch might just be that “right thing” for Shona. But here’s the ultimate twist: Aitch’s own manager isn’t buying into the love story! Via Culpan, who jetted to Australia to support her client, gave her unfiltered take to The Sun. When probed if they’d make a cute couple, she hedged: “They’re both nice people, so I’m not sure. Yeah! I don’t know.” Then came the shocker: “I personally think it’s more of a brother-sister relationship.”
There you have it—the real scoop on Aitch and Shona’s jungle dynamic. What fans saw as red-hot romance might just be a wholesome friendship forged in the fires of reality TV. Will time prove the insiders wrong, or is this the end of the fairy tale? Stay tuned as the jungle drama unfolds!
