After three grueling weeks of battling rats, leeches, eel dinners, and intense Bushtucker trials, social media sensation Angry Ginge, soap star Shona McGarty, and Celebs Go Dating’s Tom Read Wilson emerged as the final three in I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! 2025.
The trio, joined by rapper Aitch—who had been voted out just shy of the final—tackled the legendary Celebrity Cyclone challenge before indulging in a lavish final-night feast. Finally free from the staple diet of rice and beans, they savored their choice of starter, main course, and dessert, reflecting on their jungle journey as the tension built for the big reveal.
In a stunning turn of events, YouTuber, streamer, and social media powerhouse Angry Ginge was crowned the winner, transforming from an unconventional ‘rebel’ outsider to the undisputed King of the Jungle. Though he and Aitch had been bookies’ favorites throughout the series, doubts lingered about Ginge’s chances due to his non-traditional celebrity status. Yet, his sharp wit, unbreakable spirit, and raw vulnerability captured the hearts of the British public, propelling him to victory and dethroning last year’s champ, Danny Jones.
Shona McGarty placed third, with Tom Read Wilson securing a close second. The announcement left Ginge utterly speechless, his eyes welling with tears in a wave of last-minute emotion that encapsulated the highs and lows of his unexpected triumph. Gathering his composure, he exclaimed, “I don’t think I can swear, but I feel amazing. Honestly, a dream come true. I didn’t think I could go all this way never mind win. Thank you to everyone who voted.”
Reflecting on the ordeal beforehand, Ginge admitted, “It was a lot harder than I thought it’d be. I’d reached out to people before I went in to get some advice, but nobody warned me about what I was about to go through. No one said it was going to be that hard.”
The win sparked widespread joy among viewers and his online community. Fellow YouTube icon KSI, from the UK’s powerhouse group The Sidemen, shared his elation on Instagram Stories, screaming in excitement as Ginge was declared the victor. “Honestly, I’m so proud of this guy man. He’s done so well. Bro, enjoy! Get out of there man and enjoy life now. No more suffering,” KSI enthused, echoing the sentiments of fans everywhere.
