Following two exits due to medical reasons, with Grace Dent and Jamie Lynn Spears both leaving the show, the first celebrity contestant has been voted out from this year’s I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here!.

It comes after weeks of Bushtucker Trials, campfire discussions, and who could forget the hilarious audition to be the latest member of Marvin Humes’s group, JLS, by reality TV star Sam Thompson?

The show’s hosts Ant & Dec revealed the news on Sunday 3rd December, following the public vote.

As we get closer to the I’m a Celebrity 2023 final, which is expected to take place on Sunday 10th December, more celebrities from this year’s line-up will be eliminated until just three are left in the running to be crowned Jungle Royalty.

They’ll join reigning champ Jill Scott and the rest of the I’m a Celebrity winners, including football manager Harry Redknapp, actress Jacqueline Jossa and more.

So, who left the jungle? Read on for everything you need to know about the first eliminated celebrity.

Frankie Dettori was the first campmate to be eliminated from this year’s show following the public vote.

The professional jockey, 52, found himself in the bottom two against Nella Rose – but in the end it was revealed that he’d received the most votes.

Speaking to the hosts, Frankie admitted he was “disappointed” to be the first one out.

“I’ve been dieting for 30 years, but this is a different level with the heat and fatigue of the jungle,” he continued.

“It’s been a challenge, I’ll be honest. I’m disappointed to be the first one out, but happy to have faced my fears of snakes and enclosed spaces.”

I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! continues nightly at 9pm on ITV1 and ITVX.
