The star was joined by Owen Warner in the bottom two before hosts Ant and Dec announced that he was the next person to leave the camp. 

Seann gave a big hug to his pregnant girlfriend Grace Adderley as she greeted him on the bridge upon his exit.

Joining Ant and Dec for his interview, Seann said: ‘That was crazy. What just happened?’ before going on to recall his initial shock at seeing Matt Hancock in the jungle as they first entered the camp.

Detailing his time on the show, Seann said: ‘I’m watering, the eyes. So many amazing memories. I absolutely loved it. It is tough and I don’t know how much that comes across through the screen but it is tough for everyone.

‘As soon as you said my name all of the toughness just goes and now I’m just left with absolutely incredible memories. I’m going to need a long time to process.’

On seeing disgraced former Health Secretary Matt when they entered camp as late arrivals, Seann told the hosts: ‘Very good guys… well done, I was not expecting that – I don’t think anyone else. 

‘When I saw Matt, I thought, ‘maybe I’m not going out first!”

However, Seann, who formed a close friendship with the politician, was quick to add: ‘But he’s a lovely guy, he’s very funny.’

During the interview, the comedy star went on to discuss the issues he’s faced since his career took a nose-dive in the wake of his Strictly kissing scandal with Katya Jones and the subsequent gas lighting accusations by his ex-girlfriend Rebecca Humphries. 

On his fears of how viewers and campmates would perceive him, he explained: ‘Well I think that’s my issue and in my head. 

‘We all listened to each other in there and everyone got their story out and there was so much support. We all accepted one and other for who we are today and in that jungle. To get this far it feels great.’

The stand-up comic also told of his joy at not only meeting popstar Boy George but getting to wash his back too, before joking that jungle life hadn’t cured his fear for spiders.

He added that he was ‘disappointed’ not to be in the highly-anticipated cyclone, but said he had ‘the best experience of my live, saying: ‘It was amazing.’

Before leaving, Seann tipped Jill Scott to be crowned Queen of the Jungle, telling the presenters: ‘I’m afraid it’s an easy answer. I love all of them but from the minute I met her, it had to be her… Jill. She’s the winner.’ 

Watching the Seann’s exit at home, viewers were quick to take to Twitter to share their thoughts on the star’s departure.

One tweeted: ‘Sad to see Seann leave tonight. He was hilarious. Genuinely the funniest person on the show. Having said that, it’s been clear to me who the final four would be out of the eleven campmates.’

While another shared: ‘No cos I’m so upset we won’t get to see Seann in the cyclone, I just know it would’ve been the most hilarious thing.’

‘Gutted Seann left before Matt, he was a lovely bloke’ tweeted a third watcher.

Seann’s exit leaves Owen, Jill, Matt and Mike Tindall in the final four, with the campmates set to tackle the exciting Celebrity Cyclone trial. 

Although it was Seann who left the jungle, fan favourite Owen Warner also ended up in the bottom two on Friday. 

The Hollyoaks star, who bookies have revealed has 5/1 odds of winning the show, has been a huge hit with fans – who took to Twitter following the episode to detail their shock.
