I’m A Celebrity’s finalists revealed as star leaves hours before jungle winner crowned
THE I’m A Celebrity finalists have been revealed after one star was voted off tonight.
Saturday’s episode saw the final four stars take part in the much-loved Celebrity Cyclone.
Coleen Rooney, Oti Mabuse, Danny Jones and Reverand Richard Coles all donned their capes and hot pants for the annual epic challenge.
ITV viewers then voted to save their favourites, and unfortunately one celebrity didn’t receive enough to make it to tomorrow’s final.
Ant and Dec headed into camp to announce Oti Mabuse had been voted out, before chatting to her back in the studio.
Hugging her campmates, Coleen said: “This is surreal.”
She told Ant and Dec played: “I wanted to go into the jungle to challenge myself …
“There was one or two days where I was crying on stop like ‘I can’t do this anymore’.
“But I thought, from the moment you pushed me out of that helicopter, ‘I’m very lucky to have this opportunity so I’m going to sieze it’.”
Oti said she surprised herself in the challenges, adding: “I expected to just be nervous the whole time but I think when you’re in there my goal became to be focused and get the job done because it’s so important for us to eat.
“LIke, calm down, it’s not about you, feed the kids!”
She continued: “You come out a stronger and different person.
“We cried a lot. I didn’t know I was a crier.”
Her departure comes a day after Coronation Street Star Alan Halsall and YouTuber GK Barry were sent home in a double elimination.
The pair missed out on the iconic Celebrity Cyclone, which saw the camp winning four stars tonight.
With full stomachs, the final four took the opportunity to reflect on their experience around the campfire.
Coleen said: “These last few days have made it for me to say I actually have really enjoyed it.”
Danny added: “It’s just been more fun, hasn’t it? As we’ve gone on.”
Oti agreed: “When we’ve been more intimate, as a smaller group.”
In an exclusive chat with The Sun on Sunday in Australia following his eviction, Alan revealed a moment that never made it on air.
He revealed he stopped the camp from being flooded by digging out a trench to stop water flowing in.
The jungle has been battered by relentless storms in what has been the wettest I’m A Celeb in the ITV1 show’s 22-year history.
Last weekend, the weather got so bad that bosses drew up emergency plans to evacuate the stars if the weather worsened.
They were preparing to move them into the Bush Telegraph for safety after parts of the set were ripped up.
Alan said: “As the water was cascading down – and I mean it really was like a river – it was going to flood the camp and flood the fire.
“So I just kind of dug out a trench to re-divert the water so it didn’t put out the fire.
“And everyone was like, where did you think that? And I was like, I don’t know, I just thought of it.
“I managed to re-divert the water so it went off into the creek and didn’t put out our fire.”
