I’m A Celeb is back and tonight promises more drama. A preview revealed that Angry Ginge was left squirming as he took on his third Bushtucker Trial of the series.
The show has been emotional this weekend, with Jack Osbourne talking about the “fresh” grief he’s experiencing four months after the d3ath of his dad, Ozzy.
Jack was open with his campmates about his grief in the latest episode, telling them he’s feeling “delicate” and needed to have a “good cry” but is ultimately “really happy” to be on the show. In a heartwarming moment, Ginge assured him it was ok for men to cry openly.
Elsewhere, the camp faces being flooded with insects after a storm battered the jungle overnight. We’ll be bringing you live updates throughout the show.
Ginge has been praised for letting Jack know it’s ok for men to cry
One viewer took to X to share: “I’m glad they put this conversation into the show It’s true – men should definitely NOT be ashamed to cry. We are ALL human beings, with the same emotions. I was pleased to see that Ginge has taken note of this important message. I hope other men do.” Another said: ““Men cry too” oh ginge never change pls.”

Camp battered by storm!
The camp has been battered overnight with a storm, with more set to follow suit in the next few days. I took a tour of the camp a week ago and was told that the wet weather sees the numbers of leeches soar, with the stars having to be extra-vigilant.
The damp conditions also sees the campmates prone to more insect bites, and brings out more snakes into the camp. On top of that, the campmates’ beds are open to the elements, so they often get extremely wet.

Celebs to face ‘sickest-ever’ trial
Thought the Bushtucker Trials couldn’t get any worse? Think again! The Mirror can reveal details about a new challenge which is worse than any other.
Like the infamous ‘Frightbus’ last year – widely accepted as the toughest trial of last year’s series – it will be a night challenge. A source said: “This is probably one of the most sickest trials ever, and comes at a time when morale is being tested in camp and when the celebs traditionally start struggling anyway, being away from their friends and family. The other trials up until this moment will be seen as a walk in the park compared to this one.”
