Viewers were moved to offer support, expressing a desire to comfort the streamer, who has become a prominent figure in the show this year.
Behind the Tears of Angry Ginge
This season, Angry Ginge, whose real name is Morgan Burtwhistle, entered the camp alongside nine other celebrities. After a week, the lineup expanded to 12 with the arrival of two new participants. The public voting led to rapper Aitch, real name Harrison Armstrong, being appointed as the camp leader, with Ginge serving as his deputy.
Leadership Dynamics
On November 23, during a community meeting, Ruby Wax expressed discomfort with the new leadership roles. She felt it disrupted the camp’s previous equality, stating, “We were all on an even plane,” and worried that the camaraderie was shifting.
