The nation have been completely hooked on this year's I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here. Whether it was Harry Redknapp's hilarious one-liners, Fleur East's singing or Holly Willoughby's brilliant reaction to everything that moves, it's certainly been up there with one of the best in history.

After three long weeks of eating rice and beans, former football manager Harry Redknapp was crowned the King of the Jungle during last night's final, beating comedy actress Emily Atack and performer John Barrowman.

Watching the moment from his house in the UK, Harry's son, former footballer Jamie Redknapp, posted a cute video of himself and his two sons watching Harry win the show.

Sharing the video on his Instagram page, Jamie captioned the video with, 'I never thought I'd say this but I'm so proud to have my dad as the king of the jungle. We love you! Now come home please, we all miss you!' [sic]

Christine Lampard, who is married to Harry's nephew Frank Lampard, also shared a cute celebratory snap to her Instagram page.

Posing with the couple's daughter Patricia (who is named after Frank's late mum), in front of the TV, Christine wrote, 'We had to let baby Patricia stay up to watch! Congratulations King Harry!' [sic]

Harry was crowned the winner ahead of Emily Atack, but it was her speech during the final interviews with Dec and Holly which really struck with viewers.

Reflecting on what a difficult year she'd had prior to taking on the jungle, Emily said, "It's changed my life in so many ways. I came into this with a difficult start to the year and I didn't really know what I was doing and where I wanted to go, and this place has given me so much self-acceptance.

"I worry constantly about things at home, things I shouldn't worry about and I've learned to accept who I am," as Holly pleaded, "Please never cover up your freckles ever again! You're so beautiful!"
