Former campmate explains what happens ‘as soon as you leave’ I’m A Celeb jungle

Ahead of the final of I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here!, former star Nicola McLean explained what happened when she was voted out of the jungle.

With EastEnders actor Shona McGarty, Celebs Go Dating receptionist Tom Read Wilson, and social media star Angry Ginge making up the final three, it's hard to believe that we're at the end already.

From Aitch finally addressing his on-screen friendship with Shona, to Kelly Brook making an X-rated admission about the I'm A Celeb shower scenes, we seem to be getting a behind-the-scenes look at what it was really like on set.

But in the years gone by, ex-contestants have lifted the lid on what happens after they cross the famous red bridge and their journey on the ITV show comes to an end.

When glamour model Nicola McLean finished in sixth place on I’m A Celeb in 2008, she shared what happened immediately after she was evicted.

McLean told The Mirror last year that contestants do their interview with Ant and Dec first 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 TV personality said.

"And then you’re put in the car back to the hotel to - I was working straight away, I’d got a new deal with a newspaper.

"So yeah, straight back to work for me.

"But you go and see the medics straight away."

Food wise, the former page three model said she went 'straight for a McDonald's' - a nice change coming from a daily meal of rice and beans.

She added: "And then I went… my agent met me, she was one of my best friends as well at the time, she said to me, ‘Right, you’ve got a photoshoot straight away'.

"And I was like, ‘Absolutely not, have you seen the state of these nails?’

"So we snuck off around the back of the hotel and went to a nail salon first as well before I started working."

Once the physical evaluations are done, the stars reportedly then go with their families to a £300-a-night five-star hotel.

The hotel is said to be the JW Marriott Gold Coast Resort and Spa in Surfer’s Paradise on Australia’s Gold Coast.

It offers 23 spacious suites, along with a full spa with relaxation treatments and fancy pool facilities, complete with its own white sandy beach.

While celebs are no strangers to five-star resorts, it probably feels like heaven when coming straight from jungle life.
