Earlier this week, Jason revealed he bagged a job at Iceland.
He shared a photo of himself wearing the supermarket’s uniform as he said: “I’m guessing this is why mum’s go to Iceland.”

Jason also thanked Iceland staff for being “so welcoming”.
He wrote on Instagram: “Thanks to the staff at Iceland Foods for being so welcoming today, was a fun morning delivering to your lovely customers.
“Thanks for the generous donation to CAFTcharity & The Bread and Butter Thing Manchester.”
Last month, Jason revealed his application to be a ‘customer assistant’ at the Tesco Wilmslow branch had been turned down.
At the time, he wrote on social media: “I applied 7 weeks ago when I thought, like everyone, it was basically wartime and it would require all hands on deck.
“‘Curtains’ got cancelled on the 16th & I applied on the 21st for quite a few jobs).
“I have since managed to fill my ‘spare time’ doing some volunteer driving.”
