I’m A Celebrity’s first evicted campmate revealed as Ant and Dec send home star

SUN columnist Jane Moore was the first star to be evicted from I’m A Celebrity tonight.

The Loose Women panellist, 62, survived 12 days in the I’m a Celebrity jungle before falling short in the public vote.

Jane was reunited with her daughters Ellie, 32, and Grace, 20, after saying goodbye to the other 11 celebs.

During her time on the show, she got stuck into any challenge she was faced with from the off.

In the opening episode, Jane downed a grim cocktail of blended bull’s penis and fish eyes – then leapt out of a helicopter from 10,000ft on a terrifying skydive and got blown off course.

In camp, she quickly earned the nickname Jungle Jane after sparking a fire.

And she was visibly downbeat every time she missed out on doing a Bushtucker Trial as radio DJ Dean McCullough, 32, took on six in a row.

But Jane eventually got her wish when the public nominated her and ex-Love Islander Maura Higgins, 34, to take on Fright at the End of the Tunnel.

Jane bagged six stars out of 12 for a camp meal after swimming past water dragons, mud crabs and eels.

She struck up friendships with campmates including fellow Loose Women panellist GK Barry, 25.

On one show, Jane jokingly accused McFly star Danny Jones, 38, and boxing legend Barry McGuigan, 63, of being “sexist and ageist” after being given the chore of washing up.

She had already been on dunny-cleaning duty for nine days when she was given the task, which she made clear she hates.

After camp leader Barry told Jane and singer Tulisa Contostavlos they were on washing up duty, Jane snapped: “Is that because we’re women?”

She was upset at being handed the one chore she desperately did not want to do.

Jane said: “I have emptied the dunny, tended the fire on my own solidly for nine days, and you’ve given me the one job I don’t want.”

Before entering the jungle, Jane wrote in The Sun that she had signed up because “our time on this planet is short”, adding that she wants to “make the most of the active years I have left”.

Her daughter Ellie, a strategist, told us that going in the jungle is “a real testament to a new lease of life for Mum”.
