I’m A Celebrity… South Africa fans were floored after the camp was plunged into chaos following a major contraband reveal.
During Thursday’s instalment (April 27) of the ITV programme, Gillian McKeith took Helen Flanagan aside and tried to subtly reveal that she had snuck salt, almonds and other banned products into camp.
It wasn’t long before producers picked up on the rule break and Georgia ‘Toff’ Toffolo arrived with a laminate, revealing to celebrities that there was contraband in camp.

This prompted a chain reaction after Gillian was the first to confess to sneaking in prohibited items.
The 63-year-old revealed she had mints and tea bags which left her campmates utterly stunned.

“Well it all makes sense. Gillian, the sneaky sheep. She had a corner shop in her pocket!,” Jordan Banjo said in the bush telegraph.
As the campmates reeled over the confession, Gillian went one step further as she admitted: “And I have some almonds,” before pulling them out of her trousers.
The Scottish TV personality revealed she stored it all in her bra before her fellow campmates urged her to hand it all in.

But things didn’t stop there as Myleene Klass threw her scrunchie over to Helen, confessing there was salt hidden inside.
Carol Vorderman and Toff then noticed that Paul Burrell looked “guilty,” forcing him to admit he had a “tiny bit” of coffee on him.
While some celebs saw the funny side, Fatima Whitbread was left raging at the situation as she muttered: “I don’t agree with letting people off the hook.”

“Rules are the rules. It’s the principle. The rules are the rules and they’ve been broken and it shouldn’t go unpunished,” the athlete fumed.
The 62-year-old then stood up and addressed the camp, saying: “It’s not about the individuals, it’s about the rules being breached. I just don’t agree with it.”
Fans raced to social media after watching the tension boil and were divided in their opinions.
One penned: “I love when drama kicks off in camp. Tomorrow’s episode of #ImACeleb is going to be so good.”

“Nah I agree with Fatima, they all signed the same contract so they should all have no contraband,” tweeted a second viewer.
Another person shared: “Love that Gillian, Myleene and Paul snuck in stuff. Hilarious,” followed by a row of laughing face emojis.
A fourth chimed in: “I thought this pre recorded series of #ImACeleb would be dead but omg it’s so wild I’m obsessed! The dramatics of Fatima Whitbread omg.”
While a fifth fan added: “I am completely on Fatima’s side, if you break the rules then you should be punished, some people don’t think the rules apply to them.”
