The long-anticipated I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here! grand finale is just days away, and fans can't wait to see who is crowned this year's King/Queen of the Jungle.
Over the last week, we've seen five big-names voted off by the public - jockey Frankie Dettori, YouTuber Nella Rose, maitre'd Fred Sirieix, Hollyoaks actor Nick Pickard and last night, EastEnders star Danielle Harold.
Prior to that, we had to bid a very premature goodbye to MasterChef star Grace Dent and US singer and actress Jamie Lynn Spears, both of whom respectively left the gruelling reality show on 'medical grounds'.

And now, all that's left is to see who lands in the final three, only to be crowned this year's Aussie champion.
Still in the running for the hotly-desired I'm A Celeb throne is Made In Chelsea star Sam Thompson, This Morning presenter Josie Gibson, JLS singer Marvin Humes, boxer Tony Bellew and ex-politician Nigel Farage.
Despite ITV viewers having to wait until Sunday (10 December) for the official winner to be announced, several fans of the show believe they've already uncovered who will be crowned the 2024 champion.
This realisation comes as every single evicted campmate has declared that they want posh boy Sam to win the show.
In fact, according to gambling firm William Hill, the SW3 reality star is 4/9 to take home the jungle crown and sceptre this year.
Spokesperson for William Hill, Lee Phelps, this week told press: "Sam Thompson’s popularity continues to rise and this year’s I’m A Celeb really looks to be his to lose according to our prices.
"The Made in Chelsea star is now just 4/9 to win the 2023 series, making him the shortest price we’ve had anyone at so far given the overwhelming support he’s received recently."
During his stint on the Down Under series, Sam has been refreshingly honest about his diagnosis and ongoing battle with ADHD.
And at several different points in the three-week long show however, several of his co-stars have come under fire from the public for their lack of sensitivity surrounding his diagnosis.
Host Ant McPartlin's comments about former Celebs Go Dating star Sam previously left some fans not very happy on social media.
Ant had joked that 'an hour without being hugged by Sam' would be the ultimate prize for the campmates, adding: "You see, he is a nice kid and all that, he is a nice kid but the hug is too much. I wouldn't like that, that's too much for me. Back off."
Similarly, social media star Nella was branded 'insensitive' after she previously told Sam after completing a challenge with him: "I’m done. No, you just make everything worse."
Speaking in the Bush Telegraph, she later admitted: "I love Sam to bits, I love him, but he overwhelms me very quickly."
Well, we'll see whose laughing on Sunday night, won't we?
