I’m A Celebrity’s Ruby Wax is the FIFTH star to be voted out of the jungle in bombshell exit that leaves the entire camp in tears – as fans fume ‘she should have made the final’
Ruby Wax has become the fifth campmate to leave I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! in an exit that stunned both the camp, and viewers at home.
The comedian, 72, bid farewell to the jungle in Wednesday’s show, with many of the remaining seven celebrities breaking down in tears as they learned of her exit.
Speaking to hosts Ant and Dec about her experience, Ruby described her remaining campmates as ‘family,’ and said she was ‘sad’ to bid farewell to them.
She told them: ‘I can’t believe it. It was fantasy land, suddenly there’s a light. We were just a cluster of loving people.
‘Totally forgot the outside world, we shaved each other, investigated each other’s lower regions. I was checking Lisa’s bowels this morning, doesn’t get any closer.
‘When I signed up I thought, “Let’s give this a go” but I wasn’t expecting this. This is family and I’m sad I lost them. I wasn’t expecting this. I was the queen, “How can she be abducted?”

‘I got away with everything by charm. I was the queen but not voted so, I had to behead someone.
‘When I became leader, they were my servants. When you’re leader and you’re so in the walls of reality, you are the leader.
‘I can’t believe we’ve been voted out but OK, so be it.’
On her relationship with Aitch and Ginge, she added: ‘I don’t know why I was drawn to them but we had so much in common, I knew I would be friends with them.
‘Tom Read Wilson was very romantic, he wooed me and won me.
‘We all became slightly hysterical and became five years old and I lay on Lisa’s breast every night and I went to about three years old.
When she was told Aitch and Ginge took more than one milk bottle each, she said: ‘I’ll have to punish them when they come out, very badly, I can’t believe it. OK, I will deal with that.
‘I had more than fun, I bonded.’

Ruby Wax gone?! I’m raging!’;
‘How have we lost Ruby????; Ruby taking up half the remaining broadcast time by walking across the bridge, oh we’ve lost an ICON;

‘Ruby was meant to be in the final.’
Wednesday’s episode also saw the ‘hungover and knackered’ camp deal with fallout from ‘milkgate’ – with Ginge taking aim at Kelly Brook in a bid to clear his name.
Earlier this week Kelly, Ginge and Aitch decided to secretly eat some of the milk bottle sweets that they’d won during the Deals On Wheels trial – which meant that the rest of their campmates had less than them, without even knowing.
Kelly dropped a huge bombshell during Tuesday’s show when she admitted what the trio had done, but then conveniently didn’t have to deal with the aftermath because she had been voted off the programme.
At the start of Wednesday’s episode, Kelly and Jack Osbourne admitted that they felt ‘hangover from fun’ that they had at the Jungle Arms the previous night.
EastEnders star Shona McGarty, 34, struggled to get out of bed, while Jack felt emotional because it he admitted that it was his late dad Ozzy’s birthday, who passed away on July 22.
Moments later, presenters Ant and Dec appeared to tell the famous faces who was leaving – and it was Kelly.
Dropping the huge bombshell, Kelly shouted: ‘By the way, there were more than ten milk bottles!’
Ginge wanted to stay out of it and told his co-stars: ‘There were 13, so hence we had one for us three and she took the first one, that’s why.’
And a shocked Jack said: ‘The thievery in this camp!’

Keen to keep his name out of it, Ginge put the blame entirely on Kelly and lied to his campmates.
He continued: ‘Kelly’s to blame for it. You’ll see when you get out!’
Aitch was over the moon in the Bush Telegraph and said of the lies: ‘I think we got away with it!’
Shona was particularly unimpressed, noting how much backlash she received from Kelly and the other celebrities when it was revealed she’d been using contraband butter she discovered in the camp.
