I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! fans have taken to social media to claim that the first bushtucker trial of the series was fixed for Ruby Wax and Angry Ginge, after the pair formed an unlikely friendship during the challenge.
The trial, named 'The Divey', saw the duo seated at a banquet table where they were required to eat ten rounds of unusual meals. Ginge, real name Morgan Burtwistle, consumed items including giant cockroaches, mealworms, bull's tongue, and crocodile's anus, while Ruby Wax ate dishes such as a witchety grub called 'Grimothy Chalomet', a cow's teat, and a bull's penis.
Despite the gruesome menu, the pair managed to win all ten stars, securing a full meal for the camp. Viewers were quick to comment on their chemistry, with many predicting a lasting friendship. One user wrote: 'Ginge and Ruby are definitely going to be besties after this #imaceleb.' Another added: 'Ruby Wax & Angry Ginge is the friendship we never knew we needed.'
However, some fans accused the show of fixing the trial to pair the two together, given their contrasting backgrounds. Ginge, a popular Manchester streamer known for reacting to football matches, was expected to bond with rapper Aitch, but instead found common ground with the American-born comedian.
The trial aired on Sunday, November 16, and has since sparked debate online, with many calling the duo 'iconic' and an 'underrated pair'. The show continues on ITV, with more challenges expected to test the celebrities' endurance.
