Tony Bellew has landed in the Australian jungle as a latecomer on I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! and is already complaining about the lack of food.The 40-year-old retired professional boxer made his debut on the ITV reality show on Thursday (November 23) and was left stunned after being served beans for dinner, which he kindly refused, and also confessed he was once left "skint".The new I'm A Celeb campmate, nicknamed the Bomber, has left his comfortable family home to take on the dreaded Bushtucker trials in hopes of being crown king of the jungle, and he brings an incredible backstory with him.The former WBC world cruiserweight champion from Liverpool became a professional boxer in 2007.
