I’m A Celebrity fans reckon they know which famous face is going to quit next, following Grace Dent’s shock exit.
The restaurant critic and Masterchef regular was one of many famous faces in this year’s line-up. However, on Monday (November 27), it was confirmed that Grace had decided to leave the gruelling ITV reality show.

A spokesperson for ITV said on Grace’s exit confirmed that she had left the show. The spokesperson added: “Unfortunately Grace Dent has left the show on medical grounds. She has been a great campmate and will be missed by her fellow celebrities and viewers alike.”
Now, fans have rumbled which other famous face will follow suit and leave the Aussie jungle. As viewers will recall, last week, Jamie Lynn Spears threatened to leave the show.
She decided to stay, but during a conversation with Grace, YouTuber Nella Rose said she would be “right behind” Jamie if she walked away. She admitted: “If Jamie left yesterday I would have been right behind her… I’m leaving. I just don’t want to be the first.”
Fans are now certain that Nella will be the next to leave to the ITV show. Over on X, formerly known as Twitter, one person said: “, I think Grace just didn’t want to be there to begin with, I can see Nella following suit.”
Someone else added: “Let’s hope Nella goes next, she did say she wouldn’t be the first to leave…” A third quipped: “Nella does not look impressed…I still think she’s going to quit.”
The news of Grace’s departure broke live on air during Good Morning Britain, where Susanna Reid and Richard Madeley revealed the information. After having spoken to showbiz reporter Richard Arnold earlier in the show, he returned later in the programme to confirm the news.

Speaking from the Gold Coast, close to where the jungle camp is located, Richard said: “There was a lot of speculation on the Twittersphere and other social media platforms about Grace and that she didn’t look well and that her spirit seemed somewhat dampened alongside her other campmates.” He added that due to Grace’s exit, a spot had opened up on the trial.
Speaking via video link in his hotel, Richard continued: “It does seem that being voted for this next trial has broken the camel’s back as it were. All we know is officially is that she has left after 10 days on the basis of medical grounds.”

As a result, ITV bosses had to step in and fill the gap in who would do the trial to earn food for camp. Arnold revealed that producers had already found her replacement.
“It means that, of course, Josie will be facing the Down The Tubes trail but she won’t be facing it alone. Not that Grace has departed the camp, I can exclusively reveal that Danielle Harold was the third most-voted campmate to take part in tonight’s trial, so it’ll be down to Danielle and Josie.
