I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! star Melvin Odoom has shared some secrets from inside camp after being voted out of the jungle earlier this week.

Melvin, 44, was the fourth celebrity to exit the show and fans were left gutted, with many hoping he'd make it to the final on Sunday (December 8).

Not only was Melvin a huge personality in camp, but he also had the ability to lift other campmates' spirits with his sense of humour.

Since leaving the show, he's since opened up on life inside camp and what it's really like.

Now, with the celebs in the jungle for 24 hours a day, there's so much of camp life that we don't get to see at home. After all, we're only watching a super small segment of the celebs' entire day.

Which is why Melvin decided to fill in the gaps, recalling some of the stuff we never got to see.

Taking to social media, Melvin shared a thread on X, filled with 'camp secrets'.

The first one was all about Alan Halsall, who plays Tyrone in Corrie.

"I can't believe that you guys didn't see this, but Alan was the inventor of the camp," he said.

"He made a bath plug for the bath out of leaves, he made a broom somehow.

"... When there was a massive flood, he formed a dam, that was his idea. He also invented the bean patties... he was so tired of them that he was like let's start frying the beans up and make them into a patty."

Melvin also explained Alan loved showing people spiders, especially when they were in the dunny - aka the camp toilet.

Meanwhile, the radio DJ explained that he's put aside some time to visit Reverend Richard Coles' family - who are shoemakers - to buy some bespoke footwear.

"He's gonna' drive to mine sometime, we're gonna' drive up together," he said.

Finally, Melvin explained that Oti Mabuse always had his back in the jungle and would regularly fix his durag before Ant and Dec arrived in the morning.

"Oti was my durag fixer, it's that green kind of like scarf that I was wearing throughout camp," he explained.

"There were lines through that durag and a lot of that time they weren't lined up, Oti was the person who would fix it for me... she'd always line it up... Oti was my number one durag fixer."
