After taking part in the Celebrity Cyclone challenge, Oti Mabuse, Danny Jones, Richard Coles and Coleen Rooney got to spend some last moments together in the campsite on Saturday 7 December’s episode.
Sadly, it was then revealed that Strictly Come Dancing star Mabuse had been voted out, leaving Coles, Jones and Rooney to go through to the grand final.
Earlier in the day, Mabuse and her campmates had discussed some of their formative experiences, from school to dating, as they celebrated their success in the Celebrity Cyclone challenge.
Rooney revealed that her football star husband, Wayne Rooney, was the first “serious” boyfriend she took home to meet her parents.
As their conversation was interrupted, McFly star Danny Jones realised that it was their last dinner together: “So this is our last hurrah, I suppose,” he remarked.
Mabuse felt that they’d managed to get to know one another better “as a smaller group”.
Accompanying co-hosts Ant McPartlin and Declan Donnelly out of the campsite, Mabuse was shown a highlights reel of some of her best moments, which confirmed her to be the shoulder her fellow campmates could lean on when they were struggling.
The professional dancer said she believed she had come out of the contest “stronger”, as she revealed that she was rooting for Jones to win.
After being voted off, Halsall, who plays Tyrone Dobbs in ITV soap Coronation Street, also revealed that he believes Jones will win the show.
Meanwhile, Loose Women panellist GK Barry, who finished in fifth place, said she felt “really good” to be leaving the jungle.
She said her time on the show was “worse” than she expected as she was “starving and tired” the entire time, but said that her fellow celebrities “made it great”.
Addressing the toughest time of camp life, she said it was the “boredom and the hunger” – but said her friendship with Coles kept her entertained.
“I’m a potty mouthed vile person and when he came in, I thought, ‘We ain’t gonna click here ‘cause he’s a man of God,’ but we clicked,” she told Ant and Dec, adding: “He’s my favourite person.”
Voting is now underway to pick the king or queen of the jungle, with viewers asked to opt for Jones, Rooney or Coles.
The final episode of I’m a Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! airs on ITV1 and ITVX on Sunday 8 December at 9pm.
