“Having a mid life crisis,” Janet Street-porter claimed as they discussed why he would join the reality TV series.
“Also, you might not know this, but he have a very, very thin skin because I once wrote something about him,” she went on to say.
“I wrote a rather sneering piece about him.
“Next thing, his P.A is ringing my agent saying ‘Matt’s not very happy. He wants to take Janet for a coffee”
Regarding the show, she added: “Well he’s going to learn what it’s like to be disliked.”
PR expert Mark Borowski estimated the whopping fee Matt Hancock could be paid, explaining: “They paid Noel Edmonds £500,000 and that was a top booking.
“Either Hancock is desperate for the visibility or the money… if it’s the money I’d expect £350,000.”
