He's a fully-fledged member of the pack, now!

I’m A Celebrity star Sam Thompson has officially been welcomed into boxer Tony Bellew’s family.

The pair, who developed a heartwarming bromance in the I’m A Celebrity jungle, have now jetted out of Australia.

But before they did, Sam enjoyed a day at the beach with his new pal and his four kids.

I’m A Celebrity: Sam and Tony’s bromance cemented

King of the Jungle Sam left Australia with more than just a jungle crown. He’s also walked away with a whole new family.

After pretty much inviting himself to the Bellews for Christmas Day, Sam has now been ‘adopted’ by Tony.

The boxer shared a series of snaps of himself, Sam and his boys on the beach. In the pictures, Sam can be seen sitting on Tony’s shoulders.

So my 4 kids turned into 5 on our day off after the jungle!!

Tony and wife Rachael are already parents to four boys – Corey, 18, Cobey, 15, Carter, 11, and Carson, three.

However, he has now welcomed Sam – a new arrival to the family.

“So my 4 kids turned into 5 on our day off after the jungle!!” Tony said.

“Lovely day spent with good people!! @marvinhumes @p_wicks01 and myself all on parenting duty for @samthompsonuk. Amazing mothers @rachael_bellew @rochellehumes watching on.”
