Ant and Dec Rip Into Prince Andrew on 'I’m A Celeb'
I'm A Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here! has officially returned, and from Caitlyn Jenner's debut to co-host Ant McPartlin coming back, it was an eventful premiere to say the least. But fans watching at home couldn't get over one joke the favorite duo made, directed straight at Prince Andrew.
According to the Huffington Post, Ant first stated that the competitors would probably be "sweating" upon entering the jungle, to which Dec hit back with, "Presuming they can sweat, not everybody can apparently…"
Of course, this was referring to Prince Andrew's interview with Newsnight in which he denied he had underage sexual relations with one of Jeffrey Epstein's accusers, Virginia Giuffre. The Duke of York denied Giuffre's detail that he had been sweating at the club, claiming that he had a medical condition at the time in which he couldn't sweat.
“I didn’t sweat at the time because I had suffered what I would describe as an overdose of adrenalin in the Falkland’s War when I was shot at.”

Assuming you can sweat, remember - not everyone can sweat.
