In a jaw-dropping twist on *I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here!*, the jungle camp was thrown into chaos when a sneaky star was caught red-handed smuggling contraband into the mix—and the fallout has everyone buzzing. Hosts Ant McPartlin and Declan Donnelly didn’t hold back their disapproval, but it’s their cheeky on-air call-out that’s stealing the spotlight and leaving fans in stitches.

The drama unfolded during Sunday night’s episode, where rapper Aitch was crowned the new camp leader. Wasting no time, he appointed his best mate, the fiery Angry Ginge, as his trusty deputy. Together, they doled out camp chores, assigning football legend Alex Scott and rock royalty Jack Osbourne to whip up meals as the official camp cooks.
Tensions escalated after Ginge triumphed in a grueling trial, earning a whopping 10 stars and securing a bizarre dinner of crocodile feet for the group. As Jack slaved over the fire to prepare the exotic feast, Alex jumped in to help plate it up. But eagle-eyed viewers spotted something suspicious: Alex crouched down and seemed to sprinkle a mysterious substance into the dishes. Was it a dash of forbidden flavor?
Social media exploded in seconds. Fans on X (formerly Twitter) couldn’t contain their excitement—or outrage. “CONTRABAND!!!!!” one user screamed in all caps. Another chimed in, “Was that contraband???” A third pointed out, “Alex not even trying to hide what she was doing.” And the laughs kept coming: “Alex not even tryna hide she has contraband is sending me, could of at least tried to hide in a bush or smth girl.”
But the real showstopper? Ant and Dec themselves. In the lead-up to entering the camp, Ant quipped with a knowing grin, “Was that a bit of seasoning Alex?” Dec, playing along perfectly, shot back, “I think it was, I think it was contraband. What’s going to happen? Watch this space.” Their deadpan delivery had the perfect mix of stern warning and playful teasing, hinting at potential consequences while keeping the audience hooked. Is a jungle penalty on the horizon? The duo’s reaction has fans speculating wildly—could this be the start of even more camp mayhem?
And the thrills don’t stop there. This week, four brave celebrities are gearing up for a spine-tingling nighttime trial dubbed “Bugtime Stories.” In a bid to snag treats for themselves and their fellow campmates, they’ll squeeze into a creepy children’s bedroom and huddle under the covers. The catch? They must describe famous books using just four words—while dodging any obvious giveaways. Back in camp, the other eight stars will eavesdrop via a baby monitor, racing to guess the titles correctly. With bugs, bedtime stories, and high-stakes guessing games, this challenge promises to be a nightmare-fuelled rollercoaster.
As the jungle heats up, one thing’s clear: *I’m a Celebrity* never fails to deliver the unexpected. Will Alex face the music for her contraband caper? Stay tuned—the camp’s secrets are just getting started!
