Seann Walsh has admitted he 'knew' he would be the first contestant voted off I'm a Celebrity...South Africa. The comedian, 40, initially appeared on the regular series in 2022 before returning for the All Stars edition, which aired from Easter Monday.
In a shock twist during Thursday's episode, Walsh lost a trial, prompting King Harry Redknapp to order his elimination. Walsh acknowledged his fate was sealed given his opponents: 'I knew it was going to be me, because I knew who I was up against, including a former Queen of The Jungle and a former world champion.'
Early in the series, Walsh was placed in the Savannah Scrub camp with Coronation Street's Beverley Callard and Emmerdale's Adam Thomas. He described the conditions as 'an absolute hellhole,' noting the toilet faced the shower. 'The three most useless people to be left together... we couldn't see any kind of door for the long drop, so we assumed there wasn't one,' he added.
Walsh also commented on the Bushtucker Trials, saying they were 'harder and scarier' this time, 'turned up to eleven,' which increased anxiety in camp. Despite his exit, he expressed mixed emotions: 'I'm thrilled to see my family, but sad they won't see me do more trials.'
Reflecting on his second jungle experience, Walsh said he preferred coming fifth last time but called the opportunity 'extraordinary.' He noted the biggest lesson learned was to spend less time on his phone, as the jungle taught him it's unnecessary.
