The latest episode of I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here! delivered another emotional shock as the fifth contestant was voted out of the Australian jungle. On Wednesday night, it was confirmed that comedian and presenter Ruby Wax would be leaving the camp.
A Close and Tearful Eviction
The public vote came down to a tense choice between Ruby Wax and actress Lisa Riley. Ultimately, the public decided, and it was Ruby who received her marching orders. The announcement was met with visible devastation from the camp, with some contestants bursting into tears as she said her goodbyes.
Speaking to hosts Ant and Dec after her exit, Ruby shared her mixed feelings. She described feeling like the 'Queen' of the camp and joked that she felt she had been 'abducted' from her fellow celebrities. "I was devastated to be leaving," she admitted, "I thought I would have more time in the jungle." Her departure follows that of Kelly Brook, who was the fourth contestant to be eliminated the previous night.
Jack Osbourne's Trial Triumph
Earlier in the episode, the campmates unanimously chose Jack Osbourne to take on the day's Bushtucker Trial, titled 'Dangerous Discoveries'. Jack rose to the challenge spectacularly, securing an impressive seven out of eight stars for the group. His success guaranteed the hungry celebrities a substantial dinner, much to everyone's delight.
The day held a personal note for Jack, as he revealed it was his father's birthday. He handled the moment with stoicism, telling his campmates, "I'm ok though, it's just another day at the end of the day."
Heartwarming Gifts from Home
In a touching segment, Tom Read Wilson and Lisa Riley won a cache of personal presents for the camp, sent in by their loved ones. The gifts offered a poignant reminder of home and were met with great emotion.
The haul included:
- A ukulele for Martin Kemp, who confessed he didn't know how to play it.
- Gel eye patches for rapper Aitch.
- A Manchester United scarf for Ginge.
- A foam exercise roller for Jack Osbourne.
- An air freshener for Shona.
- A pink porcelain pig for Ruby Wax.
- A large hat for Tom Read Wilson.
- A white bear toy for Lisa Riley.
The episode blended the harsh reality of the jungle competition with moments of camaraderie and personal connection, setting the stage for more drama as the series continues towards its finale.
