An average TV audience of more than 900,000 tuned in to watch reality TV star Brittany Hockley and former Paralympian Ellie Cole get booted from the Jungle.
With a finale on Sunday evening, I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here is getting down to the business end, and there are only three more contestants left in the South African jungle.
Only days after Cole opened up about how little recognition Paralympians received from sporting bodies compared to their Olympic peers, the Australian public voted her off the show alongside former contestant of The Bachelor, Hockley.
The remaining contestants are Skye Wheatley, Callum Hole and Tristan MacManus, who will remain in camp until Sunday.
