I'm A Celebrity fans see 'different side' of sporting legend: 'Got my vote'

I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! fans have taken to social media to praise football star Sam Thaiday after seeing how he has been helping former Big Brother winner Reggie Sorensen in the jungle. Sam was seen in one video guiding Reggie, who has a degenerative eye condition that has caused her to become legally blind, to the bathroom and helping her find her way.

I'm A Celebrity's social accounts shared the clip of Sam guiding Reggie up a set of stairs and making sure there were no spiders in the toilet. Reggie tells the cameras, "He is really my guide dog in here."
