Emily Atack has urged I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! viewers to vote to keep her former flame Seann Walsh in the jungle. 

The Inbetweeners actress, 32, took to her Instagram Story on Friday night ahead of the first public vote off to say that he was a ‘f***ing good man’.

Emily dated the comedian, 36, – who is now in a relationship with pregnant Grace Adderley – back in 2016 and the pair have remained close after their split.

At the time they were said to have enjoyed a ‘string of dates’ after clicking at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival. 

Seann has previously said his main motive for going on the ITV reality show was to mend his reputation after his famous Strictly snog with Katya Jones. 

To show support Emily posted a picture of Seann puffing out his cheeks on her story with the caption: ‘Seann – one of my best mates. I am telling you he’s a f**king good man. Keep him in.’

And Emily’s wish came true as Loose Women star Charlene White was the first to be booted off the show on Friday night, not Seann. 

It was claimed in October 2018 that Seann and Emily enjoyed a ‘string of dates’ after clicking at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival in 2016.

British comedian Seann – who came under fire for kissing his Strictly co-star Katya – was dating ex-girlfriend Rebecca Humphries at the time.

Emily was said to be keen to put the ‘whole dalliance behind her’ after an intimate snap of the two of them in bed together surfaced online.

An insider told the Sun at the time: ‘Emily is mortified that this ­picture has appeared. She had wanted to put the whole dalliance behind her and is keen to forget about it.’

The source went on to explain the I’m A Celebrity star now ‘regrets ever using her camera in the bedroom’ after the ‘personal image’ was leaked.

‘At the time, she and Seann were totally wrapped up in each other. But she’s over it now,’ the insider added.

The pair became ‘totally wrapped up in each other’ and enjoyed ‘secret liaisons at pubs and hotels’ at the time of their rumoured fling, sources said last year.

Emily reportedly told friends she was ‘in love with Seann’, who she first met on E4 show Virtually Famous in 2014 before reconnecting in Edinburgh where their ‘friendship took off’.

‘That is where they properly clicked,’ a source told the Sun. ‘She liked the fact that he was a little bit older and more experienced than her, so seemed like a man of the world.’

Sources added that Seann was ‘extremely evasive’ when asked about his relationships and ‘Emily was under the impression he was single’.

The pair were also linked following Seann’s kiss with Katya, when pictures emerged of the star putting on a cosy display with actress Emily in a pub in London.

Seann and Emily were pictured flirting and holding hands while enjoying a drink in December 2016 – four months after their Edinburgh trip.

A source told MailOnline: ‘I was in a pub in central London and saw him flirting with Emily. I knew he had a girlfriend so thought it was a bit out of order as they were getting very close.’

Meanwhile Seann’s pregnant girlfriend Grace Adderley was pictured arriving in Brisbane on Thursday ahead of the first I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! eviction on Friday night. 

She has flown to the country to greet her beau when he leaves the show at some point in the coming weeks.

Grace appeared happy to be back in the same country as her boyfriend, as she flashed a broad smile while walking through the arrivals terminal.

Little is known about Seann’s newest girlfriend Grace and the story behind their relationship.

They have been dating since 2019 – but now their relationship is heading to the next level by becoming a family.

Speaking to a friend on an Instagram Live stream while on tour in Stamford, Lincolnshire last month, Seann said: ‘I’m having a child’. 

Seann was then asked by the friend, ‘So you’re gonna be a dad?’, replying ‘yeah’ – with the unnamed man responding: ‘That’s worrying’.

Seann added: ‘Unbelievable. Everyone else has been really nice, that’s the worst response yet.’

His friend then said: ‘You’re going to have a lot more worries.’ English comedian Seann then quipped: ‘That’s the one thing I need in life actually, I don’t think I’ve had enough worries.’

His remark may reference his tumultuous relationship history which has played out in the public domain, namely his scandalous snog with Strictly partner Katya.
