I’M A Celebrity 2024 is now in its final week and that means one thing – the stars are starting to leave the jungle.
Each night hosts Ant and Dec announce which celebrity has been voted off the show. Here’s who left the famous camp so far.
On December 1, 2024, Dean McCullough became the second star to leave I’m A Celebrity.
Ant and Dec revealed it was between him and Barry McGuigan.
After his fate was declared, Dean said: “I have really, really soaked up this whole experience, all the trials, you know, the things that I faced.
“I got stuck in at camp, done a bit of everything, and I really, really, really enjoyed it.
“And when I woke up this morning, I thought, if I go today, I am over the moon because I’ve not missed out on anything.”
Dean added: “I’ve learned that life is better when it’s simpler. You really, really don’t need to be on your phone all the time.
“You don’t need to be chasing the next appointment, the next meeting, the next gig…
“You can literally just sit in the moment and just watch what is going on.”
Dean lasted 17 days in the I’m A Celebrity jungle.
He quickly became a target for the public on the Bushtucker Trial votes due to his relentless screaming and fussing during challenges.
They nominated him for six trials in a row – quitting two of them by yelling, “I’m a celebrity, get me out of here!”.
Dean was no stranger to drama in camp either.
He sparked the Teagate saga after sneaking contraband teabags into the jungle and making others a brew.
The campmates were punished by bosses, who took away half of the ten cupcakes won on a challenge by Melvin Odoom.
The radio star, who was on water duty with Dean, said he is “very good at disappearing” – and branded him “Hou-Deani”.
But Dean defended his efforts in the camp, and said Melvin “had never spoken to him” about not pulling his weight.
“Melvin never came up to me and said to me, mate, can you go and do a couple of those runs,” he said.
“I had done, I think it was six trials back to back, and he saw me sleeping and left me sleeping because he didn’t want to wake me up.
“I didn’t ask him to do that. He’s just a nice guy. But then don’t come back and be like ‘you’ve not done anything’.”
The show started off with a batch of 12 stars all living it up in the Aussie jungle.
Here’s who has on the ITV reality show still:
