After joining an already closely-knit group as a late arrival, Iain Lee didn't have the easiest starts on I'm A Celebrity.
Despite winning the public over and finishing the show in third place, Iain has revealed just how isolating the experience was for him.
Speaking on the Lorraine Kelly show hours after the final, Iain said: "It was so hard because they all knew each other.
"I came in and had to split the group up and I found that really stressful."

As the first 'Jungle Prime Minister', Iain had been forced to pick half of the camp to join his team while the remaining contestants formed a splinter group.
"Just wandering in and saying I'll have you, you and you... It was difficult being an outsider," Iain told Lorraine.

Viewers even accused Dennis Wise , Jamie Lomas and Amir Khan of bullying Iain after he passed up on a Bushtucker Trial - with ex-footballer Dennis suggesting he didn't take on anymore.
Speaking on her ITV show Lorraine commended Iain for opening up about his mental health troubles.
"I have talked about mental health, depression and suicidal thoughts and I'm glad that came across," said Iain.
"Only by talking about it can we get rid of the stigma and save peoples lives."
He then added: "I don't want people to think I was miserable all the time - the last week was a gas."

However Iain said he wouldn't be watching footage of the show back now he was back in the 'real world.'
Although he said he might watch a few of his trials with his boys.

Lorraine asked him what he thought of his other campmates to which Iain replied: "I have no beef with anybody despite what you may read.
" Toff , Shappi and Jennie I got on with so well with," he added.

Lorraine couldn't resist bringing up his part in the infamous 'Strawberry gate' that became one of the highlights of the series.
"In hindsight that whole strawberry thing of course i would do it again" said Iain - who ate a pigs vagina as part of his final trial.
