I’m A Celeb viewers were left disgusted after watching Lisa Riley’s “embarrassing” reaction to Ruby Wax‘s exit. The Emmerdale star was gifted Ruby’s “lucky” – and worn – knickers, and proceeded to not only wear them around her wrist, but kiss them repeatedly.
Ruby’s bright red knickers were her lucky mascot, until her luck ran out and she was the fifth celeb voted off. As she left, she said to her fellow camp leader that she was “crowning” her with the pants.
Lisa proceeded to wrap the pants around her wrist and kissed them three times whilst in the Bush Telegraph. As Ruby later told The Mirror: “The underpants were never washed. Sorry to share. Mine were flipped over a couple times, and that was it.”

Fans were disgusted by Ruby’s actions
Fans were disgusted by Lisa kissing the dirty underwear. “Lisa is so embarrassing. Kissing Ruby’s knickers yuck,” one wrote. Another added: “Eww Lisa stop kissing Ruby’s knickers….”
Others felt that Lisa was being “disingenuous” when she did her display of affection for Ruby and her clothing. “Once again feeling mean saying this,” one fan started. “But Lisa just seems so disingenuous in everything she says/does.”
Another agreed: “I so hope Lisa goes tonight..she’s irritating me. All a bit false i think.” And a third said: “Lisa having Ruby’s knickers around her wrist for luck is diabolical.”
Lisa Riley is one of two women left in the camp after Ruby’s exit. She and Shona McGarty are joined in the Jungle by Tom Read Wilson, Angry Ginge, Martin Kemp, Aitch and Jack Osbourne. Lisa was a camp leader with Ruby, but as her co-leader was removed, she had to move out of the treehouse.
They also felt she was being disingenuous about Ruby Wax’s exit
Following this, it was decided that chores would be decided by all campmates rather than a leader. “Democracy at last!” exclaimed Tom. Lisa and Martin volunteered for Dunny Duty and for washing up. Ginge said it was right that Lisa volunteer as she had been “bossing us about”.
Ruby was the fifth celeb to leave. Preceeding her was Kelly Brook, Vogue Williams, Eddie Kadi and Alex Scott. A sixth will leave tonight, and Martin is tipped to be the one exiting. He’s followed by both Lisa and Shona.
Aitch and Angry Ginge are the top two favourites to win. The two have been at the centre of drama recently as they, along with Kelly, ate extra milk bottle sweets and chose not to tell the camp that there were more than 10 to share. When she left, Kelly hinted at their deception, but the boys were able to play it off and remain on the camp’s good side.
