Wrong choice, Matt
In a recent task, he was supposed to pick his choice of deputy in the Camp Leader Battle. Fans were left furious to see that the 44-year-old picked Loose Women star, Charlene White. Matt and Charlene have clashed massively on the show, confirmed Birmingham Live.

Matt choosing Charlene as deputy is a classic case of ‘treat them mean, keep them keen’

Get into her good books
Some viewers also believe that Matt’s decision to pick the 42-year-old journalist was to get into her good books. Earlier in the week, Charlene gave Matt a hard time by asking him all sorts of questions about how he handled the coronavirus pandemic or his secret affair with his girlfriend Gina Coladangelo.
As such, when he picked Charlene as the deputy leader, fans were convinced it was done to ‘win her over,’ reported The Sun. One said:
