Viewers of I’m A Celebrity were in tears last night after watching David Ginola break down while reading Danny Miller‘s letter from home.

Danny headed after him and comforted him as he had a little sob.

David won Danny’s letter after completing a task with the correspondence as the prize.

The letter came from Danny’s partner, Steph Jones, and she paid tribute to David for taking care of her man.

It said: “Dear Daddy, it’s Steph and Albert here. He recognises your voice on the telly and looks up at it when he hears you.

“I really think he looks more and more like you every day. We all love watching your relationship with David blossom. Thank you David for looking after our boy.”

It continued: “Finally, remember what I tell you every day, you are strong, you are wise … we feel extra lucky to call you ours.

“You are our daddy, our only daddy, you make us happy when skies are grey. My first ever love and my last.”

As David read out the emotional words, he choked back tears while Danny wiped his own eyes.

He then walked away from the other campmates, with Danny following offering words of reassurance. The pair then shared a hug and David whispered: “I’m proud of you, it was beautiful. They love you so much.”

David didn’t get a letter from home because Emmerdale star Danny failed his part of the task.

Viewers took to Twitter to share their thoughts on the touching moment.

“David Ginola actually has me in tears. That was so emotional,” wrote one fan.

Another tweeted: “Don’t know what’s up with me seriously but proper started tearing #davidginola and #dannymiller bromance seriously such a gentleman Ginola it’s unreal and Danny proper looks up to him like a father in the castle.”

But it’s also left others divided, with some fans thinking Danny’s gushing over David is a bit much.

After spending the night sleeping next to David, Danny joked: “If David Ginola asked me to marry him then sorry Steph. The wedding venue would be booked and it would be a great wedding. Imagine the people coming to it – it’s tempting.”

Taking to Twitter, one viewer said: “OK Danny give it a rest mate… we know you love David #ImACeleb.”
