In a whirlwind of jungle drama that had viewers glued to their screens, Ruby Wax stormed into power on *I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here!*, transforming the camp into her personal kingdom of chaos. What started as a simple contraband confession escalated into a full-blown dictatorship, leaving campmates reeling and fans buzzing on social media.
In tonight’s episode a guiltily campmate told her fellow celebs that she had used some contraband in the camp
A thrilled Ruby was voted camp leader and she screamed that things would now change
Contestants on “I’m a Celebrity…Get Me Out of Here!” stand in a jungle camp.
The trouble kicked off when camp leader Shona made a shocking admission around the fire: she’d dipped into some forbidden butter hidden in the food trunk. “I’m not responsible for it, but I used it,” Shona confessed to her stunned fellow celebs, her eyes lighting up at the memory in the Bush Telegraph. “I don’t know where it came from, but I saw it and my eyes lit up—I used it.” Fingers quickly pointed at Alex as the possible smuggler, but the real dilemma hit hard: as punishment, Shona had to choose between stepping down or forfeiting two hard-won stars from the day’s trial.
Opting to protect the group’s rewards, Shona gracefully (or regretfully) abdicated her throne. In a symbolic send-off, Aitch snatched her makeshift crown—a big leaf—and tossed it into the flames. The campmates wasted no time voting for a successor, and Ruby Wax emerged victorious in a landslide. “Things are about to change. No more Mrs. Nice Guy!” she declared with a mischievous grin, signaling the start of her reign of terror.
Ruby didn’t ease into leadership—she exploded into it. Within moments, she was barking orders like a drill sergeant on steroids. Shona? Demoted to human footstool. Aitch? Her personal entertainer, ready to perform on command. Ginge? The camp’s reluctant dancer, twirling at her whim. And for good measure, Ruby banished Shona to isolation in the old telephone box, turning the camp into a bizarre game of thrones.

Campmate Jack summed it up perfectly in a confessional: “Ruby as leader? Pure insanity. The craziest dictatorship I think the world will ever know.” But the madness didn’t stop there. As the sun set, a secret rebellion brewed around the campfire. Aitch, Jack, and Ginge huddled in whispers, plotting their uprising. “We are making a stand versus them,” Ginge hissed. Aitch nodded fiercely: “I’ve got a lot of things on my chest that need to come off.” Jack sealed the pact with a revolutionary cry: “Viva la revolution!”
Viewers at home couldn’t get enough of the escalating antics, flooding social media with reactions. One fan tweeted, “Turned into Lord of the Flies real quick—ALL HAIL RUBY!” Another laughed, “Ruby bringing all the drama after like 5 mins of being the leader after they chose to put her there hahah.” And a third captured the perfect moment: “Not them chatting about how the power is getting to their heads and RUBY WALKS IN AND SCREAMS HAIL.”
With alliances fracturing and power plays in full swing, the jungle just got a whole lot wilder. Will Ruby’s iron fist hold, or will the rebels strike back? Stay tuned—this camp’s about to erupt!
