Angry Ginge has said he’s ‘buzzing’ as he prepares to get back to business as usual following his I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here win.

It’s only been a matter of days since the Twitch streamer and YouTube star emerged victorious as he was crowned King of the Jungle after three weeks of living and taking on a number of Bushtucker Trials in the Australian jungle.

Ginge, whose real name is Morgan Burtwistle, quickly emerged as a favourite to win the ITV reality show, and once he did, it was revealed he stormed to victory with a whopping 65 per cent of the final vote, significantly ahead of runner-up Tom Read Wilson, who bagged a 35 per cent share.

After becoming the first ever social media star to win I’m A Celeb in its 25-year history, Ginge told hosts Ant McPartlin and Dec Donnelly: “I feel amazing. Honestly, (it is a) dream come true. I did not think I’d go all this way, never mind win, so thank you to everyone who voted.”

Clad in his Manchester United shirt, and his jungle crown, despite previous winners saying they had to give back theirs, Ginge was spotted beaming as he took selfies with fans as he made his way through Manchester Airport on Wednesday (December 10) alongside his ‘jungle mum’, and fellow notherner, Lisa Riley.

It was then on Thursday (December 11) that Ginge took to social media with an ‘update’, as he confirmed when he’ll be back doing what he loves, and what he’s become known for. In a video shared to his Instagram Story, the 24-year-old said: “Hello! Hello everybody. I thought I’d give you a little bit of an update…

“So, obviously today’s Thursday, I’ll be live for the very first time tomorrow. I’ve got something decent planted, okay. We will have a special guest. I’m buzzing for it. Then, obviously, having three weeks in the jungle, I’ve come up with some absolutely ridiculous ideas for next year for streams. So, we’re in for a good one.”

He added: “But Friday, I’ll stream as much as much as possible…” before explaining he was off to catch-up with more of his friends and family following his jungle stint. “I thought I’d give you a little update. I’m f**king buzzing to be back. I can’t wait to see you all tomorrow…”

It comes after Ginge’s initial reaction to his I’m A Celeb win has been revealed in I’m A Celebrity…Coming Out. The main series’ follow-up show is returning to ITV1, ITVX and STV this Saturday (December 13), giving an exclusive behind-the-scenes look at what happened when the celebrities left the jungle and returned to VIP paradise.

Presented by Ant and Dec, I’m A Celebrity…Coming Out will give fans a chance to enjoy all the best moments from the series alongside the exclusive behind-the-scenes story of what happened when the celebs left camp.

According to a preview, on the bridge a tearful Ginge, now King of the Jungle, admitted: “Honestly didn’t expect to get anywhere near to the end. To get to the final and win was just amazing.”

Former champ Danny Jones, who beat Coleen Rooney to the title last year, was seen going over to congratulate him. The McFly star said: “It’s an amazing feeling isn’t it? Everything about you is the spitting image of my best mate,” to which Ginge’s mum joked: “I feel sorry for you!”

Seeing his limo arrive for his winner’s return to the hotel, Ginge, whose real name is Morgan Burtwistle, said: “Bloody hell it’s big!” Once settled in the limo Ginge admitted: “It was three weeks of torture.”
