Two contestants were unexpectedly sent home from the I’m A Celebrity jungle on Friday night in a surprise double eviction, happening just days before the grand finale.
Ant and Dec revealed that two celebrities would be leaving I’m A Celebrity…Get Me Out Of Here! immediately.
During Friday’s episode (December 5), the hosts appeared live in camp to announce that Lisa Riley and Jack Osbourne had been eliminated from the Australian jungle, just days before the finale on Sunday night (December 7).
The TV personality and Emmerdale actress were sent home after receiving too few votes from viewers. Before they left, their campmates expressed shock and sadness, offering them plenty of support as they said their goodbyes.
So far this series, audiences have already seen Alex Scott, Eddie Kadi, Vogue Williams, Kelly Brook, Ruby Wax, and Martin Kemp leave the jungle.
After saying their goodbyes, the pair — who had each spent 21 days surviving in the jungle — headed off for their exit interview with Ant and Dec, as reported by the Express.
Jack spoke first, sharing, “I really enjoyed bonding with everyone. Before I came out here, I mentioned I don’t have many people in England, so it feels great to be leaving with 11 new friends.”
When asked about his earlier clash with Kelly Brook over cooking duties, Jack clarified: “I was just anxious about whether the food would actually get cooked — it’s tough working with an open fire.
“On the first day, I asked, ‘Can anyone here cook?’ and nobody put their hand up. I was honestly worried we’d all end up sick from some kind of rare jungle meat mishap.”
Lisa, on the other hand, called her time on the show “a basket of bliss — every single moment of it.” She added, “I haven’t had the chance to be a mum in real life, so if the others saw me as the ‘jungle mum,’ then I already feel like I’ve won.”
Earlier in the episode, emotions ran sky-high as the celebrities were surprised with visits from their loved ones in a heart-warming reunion segment.
Aitch grew visibly emotional when his sisters, Gracie and Hattie, arrived. The 25-year-old rapper’s face lit up as he rushed over to hug and kiss them both.
Once they sat down for a proper chat, Gracie told him, “We’ve missed you so much!” Aitch then gave them a tour of camp, prompting Hattie to joke, “You don’t smell your best, I’m not gonna lie! The second you hugged me, I caught a whiff — but I guess that’s just the jungle aroma.”
With both of his sisters beside him in The Bush Telegraph, Gracie marvelled, “It’s unbelievable,” while Hattie added, “We’re so incredibly proud of you.”
Elsewhere in camp, it was Ginge’s turn for a heart-melting surprise when his mum, Michelle, and his sister, Tasha, appeared. Overwhelmed, he burst into tears as he wrapped them both in a hug.
His mum comforted him, saying, “You’ve been absolutely brilliant in those trials,” and Tasha teased, “You’re hilarious to watch!” Ginge quickly fired off the question that mattered most to him: “Any football scores?”
Michelle admitted she had no idea, replying, “You’re asking me?!” prompting Tasha to crack up and confess, “I didn’t even think to check!” Ginge covered his face in despair, groaning, “You’re killing me!”
After sharing their goodbyes — and Ginge telling them both he loved them — they left him to head back to camp.
