Dylan Lewis on the death of his brother to suicide.

In 2007, Dylan's younger brother Quinn died by suicide.

OnI'm A Celebrity...Dylan opened up about the ordeal publicly for the first time.

"We grew up best friends. He had a few mental health issues going on, and 15 years ago he took his life. Suicide is an awful thing for people to have to deal with: grief lasts forever," he said through tears.

Whilst in the jungle, Dylan is competing for Lifeline in a bid to raise much-needed funds and awareness for the charity and an open dialogue about mental health.

"At Lifeline, they're caring, they know what to say, they're trained. The biggest message is don't second guess yourself. If you're worried about someone or yourself, just call Lifeline because the grief lasts forever."

He continued: "I'm doing this for Quinny, I'm doing it for all my family and I'm doing it for anyone who's ever been touched by this."

After the episode went to air, Dylan then took to Instagram to share a picture of him and his brother, writing: "This is me and my beautiful brother, Quinn. I think about him every day and love him every day and wish he was still with us. Every day."

This week, Dylan took on the annual Viper Room challenge onI'm A Celebrity...

As someone who has a snake phobia, it was definitely not the best of experiences for Dylan, labelling it "one of the scariest things I'll ever have to do, buried alive in a grave full of snakes".

But Dylan also noted, "compared to the real trauma of losing a loved one to suicide, it's nothing".

After the Viper Room ordeal and winning the maximum amount of stars in the challenge, (meaning a yummy and fulfilling dinner for him and his campmates), co-hosts Dr Chris Brown and Julia Morris asked Dylan how he managed to cope amid the snakes.

"I found strength from my brother's stillness. He was just connected to nature and earth, and had just a beautiful stillness. And I had him in my mind a lot when I was down there. He would have said, 'you're an idiot for doing that, but well done'."
