I'm A Celeb stars must follow three strict rules when leaving jungle as first campmate is voted off
The first celeb has been voted off I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here!, but their exit isn't as simple as crossing the red bridge and heading straight home.
Instead, campmates reportedly must follow a multi-step process before they are allowed the enjoy their freedom and comforts again.
Evictees from previous years have lifted the lid on what happens immediately after celebs get kicked out of the camp.
Nicola McLean, who came sixth on the ITV series in 2008, told The Mirror that contestants first do their interview with Ant and Dec and then 'go straight down the red carpety bit - red bridge' to get photos taken and 'see whoever’s turned up for you'.

"You get weighed, and they ask you some questions," the former glamour model and TV personality said.
Afterwards, there are said to be three more things I'm A Celeb campmates need to do before they are allowed to go home, according to a 2017 report from The Sun.
Psychological evaluation
The first requirement is reportedly a psychological evaluation following weeks of isolation, hunger and exhaustion.
When Rebekah Vardy was on the show in 2017, she allegedly had to undergo a number of checks before she could look forward to eating and drinking whatever she wanted.
"I can't wait to hug my kids, eat and eat and eat and drink lots of coffee," she said in her exit interview.
Medical assessment
Following this, each celebrity is said to undergo a medical assessment, including weight checks and blood pressure monitoring.
This is possibly because campmates generally lose a lot of weight due to a plain diet of rice and beans, physical trials and limited comfort.
Vardy revealed that she had to withdraw from a Bushtucker Trial due to low blood pressure.
"While walking to one of my trials, my blood pressure dropped so low that I collapsed and I was literally seeing stars," she said in her column for The Sun.
"But they have an incredible medical team on site who always check over you, and on occasion, they refuse to let you participate in the trial."
Go to hotel
Only after these evaluations are completed do celebrities get the chance to catch up with their loved ones and reunite with their team.
They reportedly then go with their families to a £300-a-night five-star hotel, reported to be the JW Marriott Gold Coast Resort and Spa in Surfer’s Paradise on Australia’s Gold Coast.
The hotel has impressive reviews across major platforms, with high ratings on Google, Tripadvisor and Booking.com.
Alongside its standard Ocean and Mountain View rooms, it also offers 23 spacious suites, along with a full spa with relaxation treatments and fancy pool facilities, complete with its own white sandy beach.
I'm A Celebrity...Get Me Out Of Here! is available to watch daily at 9pm on ITV1 & ITVX.
