Angry Ginge was reportedly allowed special treatment on I'm A Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here!.
The popular ITV show, hosted by Ant and Dec, returned on Sunday night as 10 new celebrities were thrown into the Australian jungle.
Angry Ginge, along with Aitch, Eddie Kadi and Jack Osbourne were the stars of the first episode as they won their respective challenges to earn a spot in the 'luxury getaway car'.
As a result, they were given steak for dinner and also had the use of luxury beds in camp.

The rest of the campmates were left with the usual I'm A Celeb sleeping arrangements.
Angry Ginge, whose real name is Morgan Burtwistle, was praised by fans during the first episode, with many already picking him as the eventual winner.
It was recently reported that Angry Ginge was given special treatment upon arriving in Australia.
As per The Mirror, Angry Ginge's mum, Michelle, revealed that his son was allowed a special phone call on his birthday.
Usually, the celebrities' phones are taken away as soon as they land Down Under, but Angry Ginge was able to call his mum via a producer's phone.
Michelle said: "Morgan managed to ring me via the producer’s phone because he was allowed a quick phone call for his birthday, and he sounded absolutely buzzing.
"He told me he’s been watching SAS to get himself mentally ready for the jungle, which is so him."
Michelle went on to reveal more details about the heartbreaking phone call she had with Angry Ginge.
She added: "I told him that if I’d actually seen him in person, I think I would’ve cried, although I did well up when I said goodbye on the phone. I told him ‘I love you’ and he said ‘love you too,’ and honestly, my throat just went.
"It was one of those proper lump-in-the-throat moments."
Meanwhile, Angry Ginge revealed that his mum was left baffled by the fact that he streams for more than 10 hours a day.
He said: "At first it was probably a bit confusing for her, because it's quite a new thing. But she understands it all now. She loves it and she even watches me now."
