SAM Thompson is one of the campmates heading into the I’m a Celebrity jungle this weekend.
The Made in Chelsea star, 31, was all smiles as he landed in Brisbane earlier this week.
But Sam previously opened up about a health condition that could make life in camp hard for him – and even potentially ruled out of certain challenges.

Sam will join the full I’m A Celebrity 2023 line-up in camp on Sunday night, with politicians, influencers and daytime stars being thrown into the nation’s most famous camp.
