Gemma Collins may have lasted longer in the I’m A Celebrity jungle this time around, but the former TOWIE star is still finding life tough. The GC quit after three days in 2015, with the star promising to redeem herself this time around.
And while she has already fared much better, the star broke down on Wednesday’s edition of the ITV show. She admitted to camp: “I’m alright, I feel alright mentally, it is just hard.
“I can’t wash properly. I can’t have anything nice. Ive got to wash up every f**king five minutes. I am not used to this. It’s not f**king me.” But Gemma later composed herself and got on with the tasks at hand in the South African all-stars camp. And Adam’s efforts to cheer her up weren’t lost on viewers.

On X, formerly known as Twitter, one user said: “Adam looking after Gemma. He’s an absolute gentleman. And Gemma girllllll you are doing so welllll, so well.”
Another user said: “And this is why Gemma didn’t cope in the jungle the first time.. at least she’s having a sense of humour in her sadness. Adam is a gem.” Elsewhere in the latest episode, former heavyweight boxing champion David Haye tried to play dirty and intercept and steal a bag of food.
The package was making its way to the other team’s camp following their trial win. The boxer, 45, could be heard telling his campmates that he “can’t wait” for the dinner won by the Rhinos team in the latest trial to arrive, adding that “anything coming in here is getting eaten”.

Despite his own teammates trying to stop his antics, telling him he should just let the other team have the meal they won, the former sports star used a throne to propel himself nearer to the food.
There will also be an announcement in camp. Pussycat Doll Ashley Roberts and former Coronation Street Craig Charles had to gather the celebs as Harry Redknapp and Scarlett Moffatt from the Lions team, and Jimmy Bullard and Gemma Collins from the Rhinos team are sent to Kings Croc Station.
There, they face another chance to win a pennant flag at The Creeper Train. Former Gogglebox star Moffatt and reality TV personality the GC travel in “Eeek-onomy” as they take on a series of challenges.
They campmates look to win golden nuggets while former footballers Redknapp and Bullard travel in first class. Bullard tells his teammate “Come on The GC” as she is called to the station. She jovially insists: “She’s coming out for one night only.”
Scalett and Gemma must hold on to handles suspended from the ceiling for as long as possible. During their time, they will be covered in critters and blasted with gunk.
The first celebrity to leave go will be the loser. They then have to collect golden nuggets lodged behind a fence in a pile of coal. They must try to extrat as many as possible while being blasted with air.
And in their final push, the contestants are tasked with getting more golden nuggets from cages and containers. Ant & Dec later re-enter camp to deliver the news that it is the final day as a divided camp.
