Ant McPartlin has been pictured for the first time with his baby son Wilder in Australia after reports he was feeling 'homesick' and 'sad' about leaving his family.
Ant McPartlin has been spotted for the first time with his baby son Wilder in Australia as he marks his 49th birthday. The I'm A Celebrity presenter was seen enjoying a break from filming, taking in some quality time with his son, holding him lovingly during a picturesque walk.
Ant, alongside his long-serving co-host Declan Donnelly, 49, surprised audiences when they stepped down from their weekend programme Saturday Night Takeaway after two decades. At the time, Ant expressed his intention to leave the show to allow more time with his family. Recently, it was reported that Ant is grappling with homesickness while in Australia, having had to leave Anne-Marie and baby Wilder back home. According to a source speaking to OK! Magazine: "Ant is feeling really emotional about being so far away from Anne-Marie and Wilder. It's the longest he has left them for and it's going to be so difficult."
"We've both got children that we need to spend time with for a little bit. We need time to think and, and time to step back and look at the bigger picture and just see where we are now." Tulisa and Coronation Street favourite Alan Halsall clinched the title of first arrivals at camp, granting them immunity from the inaugural public vote, set to decide who would face the stomach-churning Vile Volcano trial. However, when it was time to cast their votes, viewers hit a snag as a technical hiccup thwarted their efforts.
Disgruntled fans vented on social media about the glitch, with one peckishly typing on X: "It wont let me votee #ImACeleb" while including a tearful emoji. Another viewer grumbled: "Omg is anyone else's voting crashing because we're all rushing to vote for GK Barry...#ImACeleb."
