Full list of I'm A Celebrity winners as Angry Ginge crowned king of the jungle
Angry Ginge has become the latest star to join the long line of jungle royalty, as he has just been crowned the winner of I'm A Celeb.
After the departure of Manchester-born rapper Aitch - who was one of the bookies favourites to win - it was all to play for in Sunday night's (7 December) final.
But before Ginge, whose real name is Morgan Burtwistle, was crowned the king of the jungle , a ton of famous faces have been keeping the throne warm for him.
From football stars to models and musicians, there has been a huge range of personalities on I'm A Celeb over the years, but these were officially the public's favourites.
Tony Blackburn - 2002
The first ever person to win I'm A Celeb was DJ and TV star Tony Blackburn.

Beating out the likes of author Christine Hamilton and the late socialite Tara Palmer-Tomkinson, he won the hearts of the public and received the highest number of votes throughout the entirety of his stint Down Under.
Phil Tufnell - 2003
Cricket star and A Question of Sport captain Phil Tufnell triumphed the following year, and he was the first person to ever actually claim the jungle crown - as Blackburn only got a glass of champagne.
He came out on top after making it to the end stages with the likes of footie player John Fashanu, presenter Linda Barker and dancer Wayne Sleep.
Kerry Katona - 2004
Kerry Katona scored the first win for the ladies and was crowned the Queen of the Jungle in February 2004, facing her fears of the eating challenges along the way.
Throughout her time in the jungle, she managed to swerve the bottom two.
Joe Pasquale - 2004
Katona didn't get long to relish in having the bragging rights of being the jungle winner, as funnyman Joe Pasquale then reigned victorious a few months later.
This was the first time that the ITV show began airing in the colder months, which has gone on to become a pre-Christmas beloved by Brits.
Carol Thatcher - 2005
Carol Thatcher, the crown snatcher - in 2005, the daughter of the late politician Margaret won I'm A Celeb.
Despite a lot of people expecting she wouldn't make it that far, she managed to surprise the nation by bagging the win.
Matt Willis - 2006
Busted singer Matt Willis struck a chord with the British public, seeing him be crowned king of the jungle in 2006.
The 42-year-old was in the final with model Myleene Klass, who had several iconic moments of her own, and Aussie actor Jason Donovan.
Christopher Biggins - 2007
Christopher Biggins had viewers in stitches throughout his time on I'm A Celeb in 2007.
The actor, 76, earned more votes than supermodel Janice Dickinson and singer J Brown, allowing him to take home the crown.
Joe Swash - 2008
Soap star Joe Swash then became king of the jungle the following year, beating Martina Navratilova, George Takei, Simon Webbe and David Van Day.
He ended up hosting the spin-off show, I’m A Celebrity: Extra Camp, as the public loved him so much.
Gino D'Acampo - 2009
Chef Gino D'Acampo took home the crown in 2009.
He inevitably became the resident cook for his fellow celebrities, after it dawned on him that he wouldn't be getting 'a baguette off camera'.
Stacey Solomon - 2010
X Factor star Stacey Solomon - who is now hitched to fellow former winner Swash - became the second queen of the jungle in 2010.
The TV star managed to clinch the win after making it to the final with Happy Mondays rocker Shaun Ryder.
Dougie Poynter - 2011
McFly bassist Dougie Poynter came out on top in 2011, while he also left the jungle with a new best mate - Mark Wright.
The pair had quite the bromance during their time on I'm A Celeb and, fittingly, both made it into the final.
Charlie Brooks - 2012
Soap star Charlie Brooks - best known for playing Janine in EastEnders - won the show in 2012.
The actress surprised a lot of people who thought she was as sharp-tongued and vindictive as the character she is famed for. Good for you, Brooks.
Kian Egan - 2013
The British public are clearly suckers for boy band members, as Westlife singer Kian Egan triumphed in 2013.
He beat David Emanuel and EastEnders’ Lucy Pargeter.
Carl Fogarty - 2014
Carl Fogarty earned the crown in 2014 after becoming a firm favourite among fans of I'm A Celeb.
The motorbike racer enjoyed huge success in his trials and proved himself a big hit among campmates and the public alike, after bringing back a huge number of stars.
Vicky Pattison - 2015
Before she tried her hand at Strictly Come Dancing, Vicky Pattison went into the jungle and came out a winner.
The Geordie Shore alum didn't do as well on the BBC show though and sadly didn't get a chance to dance in the infamous Blackpool ballroom.
Scarlett Moffatt - 2016
Gogglebox legend Scarlett Moffatt swapped her sofa for the wilderness in 2016 and ended up winning the show.
The 35-year-old managed to steal the victory after making it to the final with Joel Dommett and Adam Thomas.
Georgia Toffolo - 2017
After forming a strange but endearing friendship with Stanley Johnson, the father of our former prime minister Boris, the Toff made it three wins in a row for the ladies back in 2017.
She triumphed over Hollyoaks actor Jamie Lomas and TV presenter Iain Lee, who of course had that memorable secret mission moment with Amir Khan where they ate all the strawberries by themselves, in the latter stages.
Harry Redknapp - 2018
While this might be remembered as the first series not to be hosted by both Ant and Dec, Redknapp produced a fine performance to become the first football manager to win this particular title.
He beat TV stars Emily Atack and John Barrowman to the crown, although he might have preferred having Peter Crouch and Jermain Defoe as his preferred final pair.
Jacqueline Jossa - 2019
The EastEnders star brought home the crown for the ladies once again in 2019, beating Roman Kemp (whose dad Martin featured in this year's series), and Andy Whyment to the crown.
It was an emotional finale for Jossa, who burst into tears when it was announced that she had won.
Giovanna Fletcher - 2020
The first series to be hosted away from Australia saw Fletcher, the wife of McFly's Tom, claim the prize, with the British public clearly continuing the love in for anyone connected to the boy band.
She became the very first queen of the castle, as the show was filmed in Wales rather than Australia due to the ongoing Covid-19 restrictions.
Danny Miller - 2021
Another trip to Wales saw English actor Danny Miller, best known for his role in Emmerdale, claim the crown, beating fellow soap star Simon Gregson in the final.
The series wasn't without its controversy as TV presenter Richard Madeley was hospitalised and forced to withdraw due to Covid restrictions.
Jill Scott - 2022
Lioness star Jill Scott claimed victory in 2022, shortly after helping England to victory in the Euros final at Wembley against Germany.
She sailed to victory as the series returned to Australia, never featuring in the bottom two, while the public watched former health secretary Matt Hancock complete nearly every trial.
Mylene Klass - 2023 (All Stars)
An all-star series saw some of the biggest names from the past 20 years head to South Africa and after missing out previously, it was Klass who became the queen of the jungle.
Among the returning cast were former winners Georgia, Joe, and Phil but Klass showed her class to win the crown.
Sam Thompson - 2023
The man known for setting a world-record of hugs certainly brought a positive attitude to the camp and he soared to victory in 2023.
He beat former boxer Tony Bellew in the final while British MP Nigel Farage controversially came third, having followed in the footsteps of Matt Hancock as another politician to complete a huge number of trials.
Danny Jones - 2024
The love-in for McFly continued last year as Jones became the second band member and fourth person connected to the band to claim victory.
He just about triumphed over Colleen Rooney in the title, and was on hand yesterday to present the crown to our new champion, Angry Ginge.
