Gen Zs, we know you’ve been asking Chat GPT about I’m A Celeb star Aitch’s dating life, so to quote Glinda, we’d like to help.
Millennials, just in case, we’ll tell you who Aitch is (no shade): Aitch (real name Harrison James Armstrong), is a BRIT Award-winning rapper from Manchester who shot to fame in 2018 with his viral freestyle Straight Rhymez. Known for hits like Baby, Rain, and Taste (Make It Shake), he’s collaborated with stars including Ed Sheeran, Stormzy, and Ashanti, and has performed at major festivals like Glastonbury.

Is I’m A Celeb’s Aitch single?
In a word, yes. But only VERY recently.
I’m A Celeb’s Aitch: his secret ex-girlfriend
Before entering the I’m A Celeb jungle earlier this month, Aitch had a secret girlfriend, psychology student Lois Cottam. The couple, who were together for about a year, parted ways amicably just before he jetted off to Australia. They kept their relationship pretty low-key, even enjoying holibobs in New York and Santorini without the vast majority of his fans clocking on.

I’m A Celeb’s Aitch and Amelia Dimoldenberg
Before Lois, Aitch was famously linked to Amelia Dimoldenberg, the host of the viral YouTube series Chicken Shop Date. Their chemistry was undeniable on the show, sparking dating rumors throughout 2022. They eventually confirmed they were a couple, with Aitch publicly calling Amelia his ‘wife’ and sharing affectionate posts. However, many doubted whether their relationship was genuine or just for PR since Amelia appeared in his Baby music video, and the pair announced their split on TikTok in March 2022 with some playful banter hinting at the reasons behind the break-up.

What’s going on between I’m A Celeb’s Aitch and Shona McGarty?
A fabulous question. Basically, fans buzzing (harder than the giant bugs in the jungle *shudders*) over a possible new romance brewing in the I’m A Celeb camp between Aitch and EastEnders’ Shona McGarty. Aitch recently admitted to his jungle bestie Angry Ginge that he has a ‘soft spot’ for Shona, sparking intense speculation (mostly from heat Towers, tbf) about their relationship.
While it’s early days, and we’re obv getting over excited, it’s worth noting that both are newly single: Shona split recently from her fiancé after two years, and Aitch had just ended his relationship with Lois before joining the show.

What’s the age gap between I’m A Celeb’s Aitch and Shona McGarty?
Aitch is 25 years old and Shona is 34, so nine years.
