Nick Knowles is fast becoming a true man of the people thanks to his stint in I'm a Celebrity – and he's also becoming a chart topper, too.

Following in the unlikely footsteps of Bradley Walsh, the DIY SOS star released an album of acoustic covers last year, to modest but slightly bemused fanfare.

Every Kind of People may not have been a smash hit when it had its debut last September, but Nick's time in the I'm a Celebrity jungle has given him an actual, musical number one.

Nick's cover of Bob Dylan's 'Make You Feel My Love' reached the top of the iTunes songs chart yesterday (November 21), ahead of the likes of Pink, Jess Glynne and Lady Gaga.

The TV presenter's social media team celebrated the achievement on Twitter, and thanked Radio X DJ Chris Moyles in particular for spearheading the campaign.

Meanwhile, in other Nick Knowles-related news, the TV presenter is capturing the hearts of the telly-watching public thanks to his recent and incredibly sweet gesture to Anne Hegerty.

After receiving his luxury item of a pillow in camp, Nick gifted it to The Chase's Anne, who had told Nick earlier that day that she was having "an incredibly tough time".

With the pillow unwrapped and ready for snuggling, Nick told the group: "Do you know why I chose the pillow? So I could give it to anybody who was struggling sleeping," he said, before turning to Anne. "This is for you."
