After weeks of gruelling challenges and nauseating Bushtucker Trials, the 2024 series of I’m a Celebrity is complete.
Oti Mabuse was the last contestant to be eliminated in the public vote on Saturday (7 December), leaving the three finalists, McFly’s Danny Jones, Coleen “Wagatha Christie” Rooney, and the pop-star-turned-priest Reverend Richard Coles to battle it out in the final episode on Sunday.
In early scenes during the finale, Rooney burst into tears in the Bush Telegraph, saying she was “so proud” to get this far in the competition.
After the trio endured the final Trial, “Towers of Terror”, it was announced that Coles had come in third place. As he left, he said the experience had been “flabbergasting”. That meant it was just Rooney and Jones as the final two.
Jones was then revealed as the winner, following in the footsteps of his bandmate Dougie Poynter, who was crowned King of the Jungle in 2011. “Thank you from the bottom of my heart,” Danny told fans. “I gave my all in there, gave myself. And it’s a lovely feeling to be liked!”

How much are the I’m a Celebrity 2024 contestants being paid?
The reality TV juggernaut has been a fixture on screens since 2002 and, over the years, the amount of money paid to the participating contestants has exponentially increased.
This gap has widened even more in the last four years alone, with Noel Edmonds, the one-time highest-paid star, receiving £600,000 for what ended up being just one week in the jungle in 2019.
