Amir Khan, the former professional boxer, has recently shared his feelings about his portrayal on the reality show “I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here.” Khan discussed a memorable incident from the 2017 season where he and fellow contestant Iain Lee were seen enjoying strawberries and cream without sharing with others in the camp.
Reflecting on the incident, Khan expressed that he was unaware of the impact his actions would have and how the editing of the show made him appear in a negative light. He admitted that although the portrayal was not ideal, he would likely make the same choice again, but this time with a more upfront approach.
In an interview with the Daily Star, Khan mentioned that his lack of familiarity with the show’s format contributed to the misunderstanding. He emphasized that his actions were not intended to cause harm but were rather a light-hearted moment that was misconstrued.
Looking ahead to the possibility of returning to the show for “I’m A Celeb: All Stars,” Khan shared his perspective on the experience. He noted that the first time on the show is always more challenging due to the unexpected nature of the tasks and environment. However, he believes that a second stint on the show would be more manageable as he would be better prepared for what to expect.
Additionally, Khan expressed confidence in fellow boxer David Haye, who is set to participate in the upcoming series. Drawing from his own experience, Khan believes that Haye’s familiarity with the show will lead to a stronger performance compared to his first time on the show.
As the anticipation builds for the return of “I’m A Celeb: All Stars,” Khan’s reflections offer insights into the challenges and growth that come with participating in reality television.
