Is a Jungle romance on the cards for Shona and Aitch?
Written by Chenai Wilson-Smith on 27th November 2025
Rapper Aitch and Eastenders star Shona McGarty are among the ten celebrities who entered the I’m a Celebrity jungle on November 16, 2025. Despite not knowing each other before the show, Aitch and Shona have surprised the nation with their tight bond.
While down at the creek, Aitch confided in his fellow campmate Ginge and stated, “I’ve got a soft spot for Shona, me.” This sparked a massive reaction from the public and a potential romance has been speculated.
The bond between the two has been spoken about greatly and has even caught the eye of those closest to the pair. Camila, Shona’s sister, gave Aitch and Shona her blessing when she said: “He is a nice guy…I would definitely have him around for Christmas.” Will Aitch take her up on this offer?
Via Culpan, Aitch’s manager and close friend also broke the silence on these rumours, but had a different outlook on the situation. After being asked if she thinks Shona and Aitch would make a good couple, she told The Sun: “They’re both nice people, so I’m not sure. Yeah! I don’t know.” She also admitted: “I personally think it’s more of a brother-sister relationship.”
Even though most of the nation is rooting for the pair, there has been a lot of concern regarding the age gap between them. The topic gained attention after campmates, Vogue Williams and Tom Read Wilson, mistakenly stated that Aitch and Shona are “around the same age”. Shona is 34 years old and Aitch 25, meaning the age gap is nearly a decade.
The I’m a Celebrity jungle has proven to be an amazing place to find love, so will this relationship blossom in the outside world? A jungle romance everyone will remember is Katie Price and Peter Andre. The well-known pair found love in the third season of I’m a Celebrity and even went on to have a beautiful wedding and have two children together. Will there be a similar outcome for Shona and Aitch? We will have to wait and see…
