The race to become the next King or Queen of the Jungle is intensifying on I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here! 2025. With the final just days away, the iconic camp has already said goodbye to its first two celebrities, narrowing down a star-studded lineup that includes national treasures, soap legends, and chart-topping musicians.
Who Has Been Voted Out of the Jungle?
The first shock elimination of the series came when Alex Scott was voted out by the public. The former Lioness and Football Focus host had entered the jungle hoping to show a different side to her personality, but her journey was cut short after she lost a live 'Cocktails of Cruelty' drinking trial. Her exit interview with hosts Ant and Dec featured a confession about smuggling illicit salt packets into camp to season meals.
The second campmate to depart was comedian Eddie Kadi. The BBC Radio 1Xtra star, who was booked to bring witty banter to the campsite, described his 16-day experience as feeling like 'a year'. In his exit, he reflected on facing his fears and forming 'amazing friends', but ultimately couldn't secure enough public votes to continue.
The 2025 Lineup Battling for the Crown
A diverse group of celebrities remains in contention as the competition heats up towards the final on Sunday, December 7. The surviving campmates are a mix of late arrivals and original stars, each with their own motivations for braving the Bushtucker Trials.
Vogue Williams entered as a latecomer, following in the footsteps of her husband, Spencer Matthews. The Irish media personality and podcast host is one of the most recognisable faces in the camp.
She was joined by another late arrival, Tom Read Wilson, best known as the eloquent receptionist from Celebs Go Dating. The TV personality and wordsmith is hoping his charm translates to jungle survival.
Music icon Martin Kemp is taking on the challenge after being encouraged by his son, former campmate Roman Kemp. The Spandau Ballet star admitted to fears of rats and heights but saw the show as a personal adventure.
Reality TV favourite Jack Osbourne has the backing of his famous family, mum Sharon and sister Kelly. He signed up out of intrigue, wondering how he would cope with the extreme environment.
Comedy legend Ruby Wax, 72, is using the platform to show a different side to herself, moving beyond the 'aggressive' stereotype of her early career. She has even prepared a 'sensational bra' for the famous jungle shower.
In a surprising U-turn, model and presenter Kelly Brook joined the cast after previously vowing 'never' to do the show. Completing marathons and Race Across The World gave her the confidence to face her fear of heights.
Award-winning rapper Aitch is representing Manchester and aims to break the 'obnoxious rapper' stereotype. He is also keen to raise awareness for Down syndrome, inspired by his sister Gracie.
Social media superstar Angry Ginge, with millions of followers, sees his participation as a 'bucket list' item. He admits the prospect of living without his phone for weeks will be a major test.
Soap icons round out the cast. Emmerdale's Lisa Riley (Mandy Dingle) finally said yes after years of turning the show down, marking her 50th birthday and 30 years on the soap. Meanwhile, former EastEnders star Shona McGarty hopes to show her true self, away from her famous character, though she may need a scary story to help her sleep.

Viewers can watch the drama unfold each night at 9pm on ITV1 and ITVX. The grand finale, where the 2025 winner will be crowned, is scheduled for Sunday, December 7 at 9pm, in a bumper episode lasting one hour and forty minutes.
