Tulisa was the third star who left I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here. "Love you guys," she said in her goodbye to camp in Monday's episode.

Ant and Dec confessed on the I'm a Celebrity spin off show that the N-Dubz singer's exit surprised them. After the experience, Tulisa revealed she was 100% a different person because she was feeling "grateful" for life. "You don't realise how good you got it," she told Ant and Dec.

Of learning about herself, she added: "Just stay strong with your convictions."

However, she found the trials as bad as she expected them to be. Her lowest moment saw her eating two spiders during the eating trial alongside Rev Richard Coles. "When you pulled out those spiders on me," she said, looking back at putting both spiders into her mouth in the trial, she said: "I was trying to get them all over and done with."

Dean McCullough was the second person to leave the jungle on Sunday night after winning a total of 33 stars for camp following his seven bushtucker trials. He revealed he got a telling off from Ant McPartlin in the jungle after calling those infamous words: I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here.

He told Good Morning Britain of the moment: "When Ant was telling me off for saying 'I'm a celebrity get me out of here', it felt like a proper telling off. I felt like he meant it. I did what I was told and I wanted to win him back around, which I think I did in the end."

Jane Moore was the first voted out of the jungle and she made a cryptic comment that hard work wasn't rewarded. Unsurprisingly, she would like Coleen Rooney or Melvin Odoom to win, both stars whom she called on Loose Women the "hard grafters" of the jungle.

    The musician remembers when Stewart gave McFly a lift back to Stanstead on his jet. Jones says they were about to head off on their tour to America and South America before Stewart took their passports at the time.

    He recalls: "He got in his Rolls-Royce, got our passports back and gave them to our tour manager. All the Visas were sorted, everything was sorted for America and South America. And because I told him that story, he thought it would be funny to draw penises on our heads on our passports!"

    The mum says her son Kai "loved it" so much he told his school it was the best holiday. He apparently told his teacher: "I’ve been on the best holiday I’ve ever been on” and when the teacher asked where he’d been he replied "Butlins! Skegness." They often love to holiday in Wales.

    He adds: "I text her in the morning and she said, ‘Sorry I can’t make it’ and then weeks went on, she didn’t make it, she turned me down and I gave up in the end and then 11 months later she text me saying, ‘Do you wanna go out for a drink or something or get breakfast?’”

    Jones knew on their date at the waffle house in St Albans she was going to win his heart.

    Coles asks: "Did you know by then? If she was gonna be a contender?"

    Jones says: "Absolutely man, I was gutted! She was just a best mate, had a laugh, great girl."

    I'm a Celebrity's Maura Higgins and Strictly's Pete Wicks could be the UK's hottest new celebrity couple but are they actually dating? The I'm a Celebrity star has finally spoken about those rumours while in the jungle over the weekend.

    Higgins has addressed the dating whispers — without naming any names — but said she was single. Asked about her single status, she told her campmates: "I am but I was seeing someone before I came in but I'm not in a relationship."

    Rev Richard Coles asked her whether the romance was exclusive to which she responded: "I dunno." The former Love Island star was shy about saying who it was but admitted "yeah" it was someone the public would know.

    Dean McCullough quizzed her on whether the romance felt different. She responded: "It does, but then is it because we've known each other for a long time?" At 34, Higgins has said she had never been in love though.

    Wicks and Higgins have always maintained they are friends during their time in the spotlight but since the reports of a kiss, they have stayed quiet on the claims.

    Jane Moore has made no secret of the hard work she did in the I'm a Celebrity jungle.

    The Loose Women star dialled in to speak to her daytime co-stars from Oz where she is currently in a five-star hotel after being voted out first of the show. The first thing she had said after being booted off to her campmates was "hard work is not rewarded".

    Ant McPartlin and Dec Donnelly poked fun at the comment over the weekend saying that they wouldn't have got to the 2024 series as presenters if hard work was rewarded on the show. Not quite ready to let it go, she said she would like to see "hard grafters" Coleen Rooney or Melvin Odoom win the show.

    She said on Loose Women: "I would like Coleen or Melvin to win because they are hard grafters!"

    Opening up on her own family's reaction to her appearing on the show, she said: "I have not watched a single second because it's all been a bit of a whirlwind. It was just when I came out of that camp, Ellie and Grace, my daughters were waiting for me. I basically just said, ‘Am I still your mother? Or have you disowned me?’ They said, ‘No, you did brilliantly’ and that was all I needed to hear, to be honest."

    Dean McCullough said Ant McPartlin gave him a real telling off on I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here. He was named the second person to go home from the jungle.

    McPartlin admitted to being "unprofessional" previously as he was unable to hide his annoyance that the radio DJ didn't push through with the trial. Watch the moment McCullough addressed the telling off from the presenter during his first TV interview after I'm a Celebrity and spin-off show Unpacked.

    Asked about the seven trials he took part in, he said on Good Morning Britain "You do actually get used to the tension. What you don't see on TV is that it's so quiet, it's all taken very, very seriously. There's so many rules that you've got to remember and it's tense.

    "Over the week, I actually got used to it, but the sand one — I could not have predicted that was going to happen... But I would actually do it again, I would give it a go. Like anything, you just keep doing it, you get used to it.

    "When Ant was telling me off for saying 'I'm a celebrity get me out of here', it felt like a proper telling off. I felt like he meant it. I did what I was told and I wanted to win him back around, which I think I did in the end."
