Angry Ginge Crowned King of the Jungle on I'm A Celebrity 2025

A near-13 million public vote decided a finale that confers no cash prize.

Overview

  • The TikTok creator won ahead of Tom Read Wilson in second place and Shona McGarty in third after the series finale on December 7.
  • Hosts Ant and Dec said the final drew nearly 13 million votes, the highest total in around a decade.
  • All three finalists completed their Bushtucker Trials and secured every star, with Tom Read Wilson making show history by swallowing a whole fermented egg in one go.
  • Winners receive a flower crown and wooden sceptre that must be returned and the programme offers no cash prize for victory, with contestants instead paid pre-arranged appearance fees.
  • Press estimates suggest Angry Ginge earned about £100,000 for the series, Shona around £95,000, and Tom between £60,000 and £80,000, as the winner said he competed for the experience rather than the title.
