I'm A Celeb star Aitch was well and truly getting into the Christmas spirit while stocking up on booze in Manchester on Tuesday.
The rapper, 25, real name Harrison James Armstrong, donned a Santa's hat as he called into a local shop for three bottles of Southern Comfort whiskey.
Cutting a casual figure in a grey tracksuit and Nike trainers he also picked up a festive wreath ahead of what looked to be a boozy Christmas.
Aitch, who finished in fourth place earlier this month behind pal and eventual King Of the jungle AngryGinge, appeared to go unrecognised by passersby as filled the boot of his £70K Porsche with shopping.
Last week his I'm A Celeb co-star Shona McGarty, 34, opened up about romance rumours surrounding the pair, after sharing several sweet moments in the jungle.
The EastEnders star addressed the rumours on the Hits Radio Breakfast Show, where she reflected on her time in the jungle and set the record straight on any blossoming romance.

She said: 'I came out, and apparently me and Aitch were in a relationship...He's great, still my little brother!'.
'He's so fun to be around, he's just hyper, and he matched my level of hyper. He hasn't been round for karaoke yet, but it's on the cards.'
It comes after Shona previously broke her silence on her close bond with Aitch, after pining over his departure from the jungle, as she went on to finish third in the show's final earlier this month.
The soap star made it to the final three but was eliminated, leaving Tom Read Wilson and AngryGinge as the last two campmates.
As she spoke in her exit interview with Ant and Dec, she gushed about Aitch.
Asked why she thought they got on so well, she told the Geordie duo: 'To be honest, when he came into the Jungle, this rapper, he was all giving it this and that, but underneath it all, I could tell he was quite scared of the whole experience.
'He's very normal, down to earth, and we had a similar upbringing, I felt like an older sister to him. I wanted to protect him.'
The show opened with the actress pining for Aitch following his departure from their purpose-built jungle camp.

His semi-final elimination hinted at something more than friendship, as she was visibly shaken that he had to go.
Addressing his shock departure in the Bush Telegraph during the final, a devastated Shona said: 'I had to say goodbye to Aitch today... just one more day until I see him again.'
The comment prompted an inevitable wave of speculation from viewers, with many predicting the pair might strike up a romance once Shona leaves the jungle.
Taking to X, one commented: 'Shona was devastated!'
A second added: 'The way aitch & Shona hugged... they are SO SWEET!!'
While a third posted: 'THE AITCH AND SHONA POTENTIAL ROMANCE?! I must know cos they’d be cute af!' [sic]
