"But his past comments on disability were controversial and it's not a good look for a station that prides itself on inclusivity." Jack faced criticism after posting a comedic sketch where he mimicked someone using a wheelchair - using stereotyped behavior and language that disabled viewers and advocates described as offensive. TikTok users flagged it as ableist, accusing him of mocking disabilities rather than satirizing broader issue. The backlash prompted conversations and response videos from disability advocates on the platform. While Jack appears to have deleted the post, it didn't come with a public apology or explanation - leaving fans unsatisfied. Recently, TikTok's search results show his name still trending with phrases like 'Jack Joseph apology ableism' and 'Jack Joseph ableism reaction,' suggesting that viewers are still calling for clarity or accountability. This latest news comes after The Sun revealed how former Love Island star Dani Dyer would also be part of the line-up for the new series. England cricketing hero Graeme Swann is being lined to appear on the next series too. SHOW SHAKE-UP We exclusively revealed how Celebrity SAS is set for a major shake-up too, with the new series set to take place in a new location. A show insider said: 'Last series, there was a bit of a cash crisis at Channel 4 so the series shunned exotic locales and filmed in Wales. "Bosses made it work but it felt like it wasn't on as big a scale as when they have filmed in foreign climes, so for the next series, execs are blowing the budget and pushing the boat out to film in Marrakech instead. "It's more expensive but will look amazing on camera.' The Sun has contacted Channel 4 for comment. Who is Jack Joseph?
