Picture this: the steamy Australian jungle, a crystal-clear creek, and three stunning I’m A Celebrity campmates ready to beat the heat with a refreshing dip. But what started as a glamorous girls’ getaway vibe turned into a full-blown nightmare faster than you can say “leech attack”! Shona McGarty, Kelly Brook, and Alex Scott thought they were in for some fun in the sun – until bloodsucking parasites crashed the party, sending the trio into hysterical chaos.

It all kicked off on a scorching morning in camp when the fabulous Kelly Brook, channeling her inner ‘Jungle Woman,’ strutted down to the creek in a fierce leaf-print black and white swimsuit. Feeling bold and beautiful, she plunged right in and beckoned her pals to join the splash fest. Shona, rocking a vibrant red two-piece, and Alex weren’t about to miss out – they stripped down and dove in, laughing and soaking up the vibes.
But hold up – things went from paradise to pandemonium in seconds! As the ladies frolicked in the pool’s corner, they spotted something sinister slithering their way: a swarm of leeches, gliding through the water like tiny vampires on a mission. “They’re swimmers, they’re swimming. I’m not kidding. F***, get out!” Kelly shrieked, her voice echoing through the jungle as panic set in.
The girls bolted for safety, scrambling out of the water in a frenzy. Poor Shona, in her haste, slipped on her backside with a hilarious (and slightly painful) thud, while the others hauled her to dry land. No bites for these beauties, thank goodness – they escaped just in the nick of time!
Spilling the tea in the Bush Telegraph later, Kelly couldn’t hide her shock: “We were seconds away from being covered in leeches and eaten alive. Oh my god! We just could not get out of that pool quick enough.” Talk about a close call that had everyone on edge!
Fans at home were loving the drama, with one viewer tweeting: “Obsessed with Kelly, Shona and Alex giving girls holiday vibes.” Even in terror, these ladies served major squad goals!

But the leech fiasco wasn’t the only jaw-dropping moment in this wild episode. Elsewhere, rock royalty Jack Osbourne dished out a legendary family tale, recounting his dad Ozzy’s infamous dove-decapitating stunt – because nothing says “jungle chat” like a bit of heavy metal history!
Martin Kemp got real about his health battles, revealing how a life-saving brain tumor operation left him with an untreatable condition that’s changed his world forever. Heart-wrenching stuff that had the camp – and viewers – reflecting on resilience.
Then there was Lisa Riley, opening up raw and honest about her incredible weight loss journey and her struggles with alcohol after losing her beloved mum. Her story was a powerful reminder of strength in the face of grief.
And let’s not forget comedian Eddie Kadi, who dove headfirst into a water-based Trial but got slammed as “hopeless” by his campmates. Ouch! From laughs to screams, this episode had it all – proving once again why I’m A Celebrity is the ultimate rollercoaster of reality TV. Who knows what creepy crawlies (or confessions) are lurking next?
