“He’s like Tinder in there, my dad.”
Jamie Redknapp has responded after I’m A Celeb’s Emily Atack told his dad, Harry, that she fancied the retired footballer.
The 45-year-old jokingly compared his dad to Tinder, as the former football manager tried to set his son up from 10,000 miles away.
In recent scenes, the I’m A Celeb campmates were talking about some of their other famous family members – and Emily revealed her crush on Jamie to the rest of the group.
She asked Harry if Jamie was single, before jokingly adding:
“Ooh imagine, Emily Redknapp, I would make a really good daughter in law.”
Harry seemed to be totally on board with the idea, telling her there was “no doubt” she would be a “fantastic” daughter-in-law.
Although the Inbetweeners actress quickly assured him she was “only messing around”, before miming for Jamie to call her.
Fans though the scenes were absolutely hilarious – and, as it turns out, so did Jamie.
The former footballer said that Emily was “so sweet” in the programme, as he revealed what he thought about the conversation.
He told The Sun:
“She’s so sweet in the programme. It was such a nice conversation. I was like, ‘Where are you going with this, Dad?’
“It did make me laugh. He’s like Tinder in there, my Dad.”
