In a heart-wrenching turn of events on I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here!, Jack Osbourne finally received his much-anticipated letter from home, leaving the reality star visibly emotional. The 40-year-old had been the only campmate to miss out on the precious correspondence in a previous episode, sparking an outcry from viewers and his famous sister, Kelly Osbourne.
A Triumphant Dingo Dollar Challenge
The touching moment unfolded after campmates AngryGinge, Kelly Brook, and Aitch headed off to tackle the day's Dingo Dollar challenge. The trio faced a tricky task involving collecting milk from udders and filling a leaky carton. Demonstrating impressive teamwork and ingenuity, Kelly Brook devised a clever plan to use buckets to catch the spilling milk, allowing them to pour it back in.
Their efforts paid off handsomely. Not only did they win the promised prize of milk bottles, but they also secured the surprise bonus: Jack's long-lost letter from home. A shocked and grateful Jack hugged his fellow celebrities as the news was delivered.
The Heartfelt Words From Home
Kelly Brook read the letter aloud to the camp. It was penned by Jack's wife, Aree, who wrote affectionately, 'You are so in your element out there'. She praised her husband for 'keeping the fires ablaze, cooking five star meals, and being an amazing camp protector and often leader.'
The letter also referenced Jack's stellar performance in the 'Drown The Hatch' trial, where he won all 12 stars with ease. Aree shared updates from the family, noting, 'The girls are doing amazing. Your mum is so proud of you and Kelly doesn’t miss an episode.' As he listened, Jack became increasingly emotional, wiping away a tear.
Previous Disappointment and Fan Outcry
This emotional high came after a crushing disappointment. In Sunday's episode, Martin Kemp, Aitch, and Vogue Williams had attempted to win Jack's letter but failed by incorrectly answering how old he was when he started filming for The Osbournes. The campmates watched helplessly as the letter was shredded in a blender.
Jack had tried to put on a brave face at the time, saying he had to 'suck up' his emotion. The situation did not go unnoticed by fans. One viewer wrote on X: 'Jack dying inside listening to all of their letters.' Another pleaded, 'I’m sorry but everyone should have a letter... Jack didn’t deserve to miss out.'
His sister, Kelly Osbourne, also expressed her sadness in an Instagram story, saying, 'I'm so sad he didn't get his letter from the family.'
Sneaky Treats and Camp Emotions
In a lighter moment, the triumphant trio of Kelly, Aitch, and Ginge indulged in a sneaky treat. After correctly answering a question for the camp—identifying which school job Ginge had done—they decided to eat half of the won milk bottles at Kev's ice cream van before returning to camp with the remainder.
Jack's letter was not the only one to stir emotions in the jungle. Vogue Williams was also brought to tears by a letter from her husband, Spencer Matthews, who is currently undertaking a monumental series of iron triathlons.
