British rapper Aitch, whose real name is Harrison James Armstrong, has swapped the recording studio for the jungle, making his debut on the 2025 series of I'm A Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here!
The 25-year-old artist from New Moston, Manchester, enters the reality show as one of the UK's most successful grime artists, joining his real-life friend Angry Ginge in the camp.
The Rise of a Manchester Star
Aitch's career began unexpectedly in 2015 when a YouTube video of him freestyle rapping to friends went viral. This organic start led to his first EP, 'On Your Marks', in 2017.
His breakthrough came in 2018 with the track 'Straight Rhymez', which catapulted him to national fame. Since then, he's built an impressive catalogue of hits including 'Taste (Make It Shake)', 'Rain', and 'Party Round My Place'.
Standing at around six foot tall, the Manchester lad has collaborated with music legends ranging from pop icon Ed Sheeran to R&B star Ashanti, demonstrating his versatility across genres.
Personal Life and Career Highlights
Aitch has kept his romantic life largely private, though he's been linked to Australian influencer Lola Thompson, model Taylor Mullings, and was rumoured to be dating Chicken Shop Date's Amelia Dimoldenberg.
More recently, reports suggested he was dating a psychology student from Cheshire, though the rapper has never confirmed this relationship publicly.
In August 2022, he released the heartfelt track 'My G' about his sister Gracie, who has Down's Syndrome. The song featured on his album 'Close To Home', which reached number two in the UK Albums Charts.
The pinnacle of his critical acclaim came in 2023 when he won a Brit Award for Best Hip Hop/Rap/Grime Act, cementing his status as one of Britain's most exciting musical talents.
Financial Success and Future Prospects
Aitch's successful music career has translated into significant financial reward, with his estimated net worth standing at approximately £3.5 million.
His appearance on I'm A Celebrity in 2025 represents his first major reality television venture, potentially introducing his music to an even wider audience beyond his existing fanbase.
As he faces bushtucker trials alongside campmates, fans will be watching to see how the Manchester-born artist adapts to jungle life while his music continues to play on radios across the country.
