Who won I’m a Celebrity 2024? The latest season of the popular reality show I’m A Celebrityโฆ Get Me Out Of Here! Australia has come to an end. After weeks of intense challenges and gross eating trials in the South African jungle, influencer Skye Wheatley was crowned the 2024 Queen of the Jungle.
When her name was announced as the winner, Skye couldn’t believe it. She said, “I’m shocked! Shocked. I feel blessed to have had this opportunity.” Throughout the show, Skye bravely faces her fears, like holding snakes during challenges. Fans loved watching her positive attitude.
In the finale episode, Skye beat out runner-up Tristan MacManus and third-place Callum Hole to claim the jungle crown. Tristan shared that being on the show made him realize he needs to reduce stress for the sake of his family. He said, “I didn’t realize how much my stress was affecting my family.”
Callum felt grateful for the simple jungle experience, saying, “I will practice gratitude every single day, just so this feeling of gratefulness sticks with me.” Being away from normal life helped him reconnect with what matters.
Earlier in the finale, contestants Brittany Hockley and Ellie Cole were eliminated when they didn’t get enough fan votes to make the top three. Brittany said the jungle environment was easy for her, as she has “traveled the world and lived rougher than this.” But she admitted being away from family and the gross food were hard.
Ellie shared that the best part was meeting the other contestants, saying, “I was looking forward to spending time with 11 other personalities I usually wouldn’t spend time with.” She has been a huge fan of the show for 10 years.
By winning, Skye earned an impressive $100,000 cash prize for her chosen charity Bully Zero Australia. This organization provides anti-bullying education, advocacy, and support across Australia. It was founded after a young boy died by suicide due to cyberbullying.
The fun finale episode saw the final three celebrities reunite with loved ones before facing one last classic I’m A Celeb challenge – the dreaded Wheel of Misfortune! After the gross tasks, they enjoyed a final banquet dinner together in camp.
Hosts Julia Morris and Robert Irwin, son of the late Steve Irwin, guided Skye, Tristan, and Callum through their emotional final days. Julia provided laughs as always, while Robert impressed as a natural television presenter at just 20 years old.
While fans are sad to see this season end, they can look forward to other reality shows like MasterChef Australia and Farmer Wants A Wife coming soon. But Skye’s shocking yet well-deserved jungle victory is sure to be a moment viewers won’t forget.
The other celebrity contestants from this season also delivered many memorable moments as they stepped up to face intense physical and mental challenges. Stephen K. Amos, Khanh Ong, Peter Daicos, Michelle Bridges, Frankie Muniz, Candice Warner and Denise Drysdale all earned praise for their efforts.
Though only one person could claim the crown, every celebrity showed courage, determination, and good humor throughout their grueling jungle experience. Watching their incredible journeys is what makes I’m A Celeb a reality TV favorite year after year.
So while we have to wait until next season for more jungle madness, fans can celebrate influencer Skye Wheatley’s well-earned victory and $100,000 charity prize. Her shocking win reminds us that this unique show can create shocking moments and unforgettable experiences.
