The I’m A Celeb crew have now been in the jungle for several days, and are no doubt settling into camp life.
Last night (19 November), we saw the contestants treated with personalised luxury items that - in a nice twist - loved ones had chosen for them, although Jane Moore and Barry McGuigan were forced to go without after theirs weren’t won in a challenge.
McFly star Danny Jones was delighted to open up an inflatable lilo, a present he presumed must’ve been picked out by his young son, while GK Barry received a dressing gown and Coleen Rooney unwrapped a personalised pillow with a photo of her family on it.

Tulisa - who'd been given a blow-up armchair - joked how she now has two chairs on top of the one she’s got as camp leader.
But while her role as top dog comes with some level of comfort, it turns out it’s not without its issues.
As Danny and Melvin Odoom cooked dinner for the camp, they soon realised that the buffalo tail Dean McCullough’s two stars had won them wouldn’t stretch all that far.
They also had no idea what to do with it, as it proved tricky to even cut up.

Tulisa made no secret of the fact that she was itching to help - something she’s not allowed to do as camp leader - trying to shout out subtle suggestions before saying in the Bush Telegraph that she’d been dying to take over.
While some viewers called on the contestants to just ‘let Tulisa cook’, former campmate Joel Dommett revealed on I’m A Celebrity... Unpacked that it’s sadly not an option.
Joel, who appeared on the show in 2016, explained how, if a chore rule is ever broken, it leads to stars being taken away.
This, in turn, means food supplies will run even lower than they do already, which is obviously a huge no-go.

While some sympathised with Tulisa’s predicament, others were reminded of similar tension last year with Fred Sirieix.
One tweeted: “If any Celebs are thinking of doing #ImACeleb next year, don’t be a Tulisa and moan over the cooking! Did no one learn from Fred last year?!”
Someone else said: “I get Tulisa is good at cooking but please let others try.”

A third agreed: “Tulisa needs to allow the boys to cook and stop having an input in the cooking everyday.”
Others, meanwhile, were keen to see Tulisa behind the stove, with one writing: “I’d wanna be cooking with Tulisa ngl.”
Another commented: “When it comes to cooking, the camp is using Tulisa like Google.”
Many more said they should ‘get a cooking show’ after her time in the jungle, while one user added: “Obsessed with Tulisa slagging off the cookin.”
