**Content warning: the following discusses suicide and may be distressing for some readers.

The charity holds a special place in his heart after his brother Quinn died by suicide 15 years ago.

In an earlier episode, the TV and radio host discussed the impact his brother has had on him across his career.

“He’s three years younger than me… We grew up best friends… He’s the reason I do music,” Dylan confessed to his co-stars. “[He] had a few mental health issues going on and, 15 years ago, he took his own life.”

The former Recovery host also added that suicide prevention service Lifeline will always “know what kind of help you need”.

I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! Australia is Dylan’s second reality TV win, following Celebrity Big Brother way back in 2002.
