‘Had a good cry with Eddie (Kadi)… But ultimately I’m happy, I’m really happy I’m here.’
The group rallied around him, showing their support.

The comment came after Jack jokingly said: ‘Promise I’ll never cry in front of you again, Ginge.’
To which the internet personality replied: ‘It’s alright, mate; men cry too.’
Fans of the show were delighted with the streamer’s response. Emily O’Neill said on X: ‘The most important message that needs to be broadcast on tv more!’
Alex K Phillips also shared a screenshot of the moment on ITV, writing: ‘Men’s mental health matters too’.
@napqueen3000 added: ‘Young men need to be more Ginge, less Andrew Tate. He actually seems like such a nice person. Standing on enjoying sobriety, not being scared of crying, and refusing to touch Ruby’s pants. 10/10.’

In the Bush Telegraph, he spoke further: ‘I wanted him to speak about it because it’s good for him, for his well-being.
‘And it’s good for the camp because it just shows how comfortable we all are.’
Kelly Brook also vocalised her support for Jack as she told him: ‘We really love you.’
It’s not the first time Jack has got emotional about his dad on the show.
Rock legend Ozzy, who was a member of the band Black Sabbath, died aged 76 on July 22. They’d been performing live at Villa Park in Birmingham just 17 days before.
In a conversation with Emmerdale actress Lisa Riley, Jack said his death was ‘definitely a shock.’

He continued: ‘We didn’t know it would be that quick.’
The singer’s health had been in question for a while – he was diagnosed with Parkinson’s in 2003 and had coronary artery disease. Ultimately, it was a heart attack that killed him.
Fans lined the streets of Birmingham in his memory on the day of Ozzy’s funeral. His wife, Sharon Osbourne, made appearances with their children to read the tributes laid out.
With it not being long since his dad’s death, some were surprised to see Jack in the jungle, but he told Lisa that Ozzy would be ‘so supportive of this.’
The TV presenter is being paid £200,000 to do the show, according to The Sun, and he’s quickly become one of the more talked-about contestants in the series.
