Surprise Exit Rocks the Jungle
In a result that left audiences across the UK stunned, Alex Scott became the first celebrity to be evicted from the I'm A Celebrity...Get Me Out Of Here! 2025 series. The dramatic exit unfolded on Thursday, November 28, 2025, when hosts Ant McPartlin and Declan Donnelly arrived in camp to deliver the fateful news.
The decision was made by the public vote following a live trial that placed several celebrities in jeopardy. The group at risk of the first eviction included Jack Osbourne, Alex Scott, Angry Ginge, Aitch, Spandau Ballet's Martin Kemp, Kelly Brook, and Ruby Wax. Ultimately, it was the former football star and Lioness who was chosen to leave, walking the iconic rope bridge out of the jungle.
Viewer Backlash and Social Media Uproar
The eviction triggered an immediate and passionate response on social media platforms, with many fans expressing their shock and disappointment. The consensus among viewers was that they had expected Alex Scott to remain in the competition for much longer.
One Twitter user, @Milly1978, theorised, 'I can only imagine people thought Alex would be safe so they maybe didn't vote or give her multiple votes.' This sentiment of tactical voting miscalculation was widespread.
Other reactions were more pointed in their criticism of the British public. User @fkajoanne posted, 'Alex Scott leaving #ImACeleb first? C'mon England…letting a Lioness go home first. Abysmal. Shame on you.' Another user, @John51826513451, simply stated, 'A bit shocked and sad that Alex has gone first, just seems a nice lass who takes on everything that comes her way.'
Farewell Speeches and Campfire Reflections
The night before the eviction, ITV viewers were given an emotional glimpse into camp life as the celebrities prepared for the possibility of departure. Gathered around the campfire after a challenging meal involving black chicken, each of the nominated stars delivered a heartfelt farewell speech.
They shared what the experience had meant to them and reflected on what they would miss most about jungle life if they were the one to go. This poignant moment set the stage for the unexpected result that was to follow.
I'm A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! continues its run, airing on ITV1, STV, ITVX and STV Player.
