Angry Ginge crowned King of The Jungle 2025 in emotional win
Angry Ginge has been crowned King of the Jungle.
The streamer, 24, reigned victorious in the I'm A Celeb final on Sunday (7 December) after winning the hearts of the nation over the last few weeks.
EastEnders star Shona McGarty came third, while Celebs Go Dating receptionist Tom Read Wilson came in second place.
Ginge described his experience Down Under as a 'dream come true' - but admitted he was lost for words while being crowned King of the Jungle.

Asked if he had any final words for viewers who have tuned in to watch him every night, Ginge hilariously said: "I can't think of one!"
However, he did make sure to offer his thanks to the people who have been voting for him.
"I don’t think I can swear, but I feel amazing," Ginge said, while last year's winner, McFly singer Danny Jones, handed over the crown and sceptre to him during the live episode of the ITV show.
"Honestly, a dream come true. I didn’t think I could go all this way never mind win. Thank you to everyone who voted."
It appears that social media users think that Ginge is a very deserving winner, as viewers have been flooding X with congratulatory messages for the Salford-born star.
One person said: "Ginge going from living in a pub a year ago, to winning I’m a Celeb a year later!!!"
Another wrote: "Yesssss Ginge so deserved."
A third added: "Thoroughly enjoyed this series of #imaceleb. In my opinion it's up there with one of the best ones, and I am absolutely buzzing for Ginge!"
Wilson was a great sport about being runner-up too, as while Ginge was being crowned, he sweetly said: "That's as it should be. That's everything I want. I've had the best time. I can't tell you."
The Twitch streamer, whose real name is Morgan Burtwistle, has managed to gain a legion of new fans during his jungle stint.
He's been the ideal contestant in the eyes of a lot of folks - as he's faced his fears, opened up to the cameras about missing home and feeling overwhelmed, as well as sharing a ton of personal anecdotes, too.
From discussing the time his girlfriend broke up with him on a livestream to the half-sister he has never met, no one can accuse this lad of not being honest.
Before the jungle crown was bestowed upon him, Ginge told Ant and Dec that he'd found the I'm A Celeb experience a 'lot harder' than he had anticipated.
"I’d reached out to people before I went in to get some advice, but nobody warned me about what I was about to go through," he told the Geordie double act.
"No one said it was going to be that hard. That was the hardest thing I’ve ever done and was a real mental test.
“There were so many times I wanted to throw the towel in.”
Thank God he didn't, eh lads?
