The latest star to leave I’m A Celebrity 2025 has spoken, as Eddie Kadi told hosts Ant McPartlin and Dec Donnelly who he wants to win, and who may have contraband
After his I’m a Celebrity elimination on Sunday night, Eddie Kadi was ready to go – but not before dropping a claim about a campmate.
The comedian was the latest name to be booted out of the jungle, as confirmed by ITV hosts Ant McPartlin and Dec Donnelly. Two days on from waving off the first celebrity to leave the show, Alex Scott, Eddie said “it’s time” as he fled over the bridge and waved goodbye to his jungle pals.
Joining Ant and Dec in the studio live on air, Eddie told them: “I’m happy and sad at the same time, I’m had I’m sappy, honestly what a great time. I’ve had such an incredible time.
“I have made amazing friends, faced some fears and to be fair, it feels very surreal to be on such an iconic show, but most of the time you forgot you were on a show.”

Eddie went on: “I feel like I’ve been there for a year, I’ve changed. It has changed my life. Things will never be the same. Even when you’ve got no food and you are hungry it goes to show we are enough as people. As human beings we are enough.”
He also discussed his friendship with Jack Osbourne, praising the way he taught everyone how to “survive” in the jungle. He said: “Jack went straight through, for me it was like survival.
“It’s like the first day of school when you’re not sure who to be friends with. He knows what he’s doing. He taught me how to start a fire, from that moment… he knows everything.” He now wants Jack to win the whole show.
It’s then that Eddie let slip that he thinks after the contraband scandals, there could be more in camp. He joked: “Ruby Wax has got some stuff, she’s probably got her cats.”
It comes after Alex confirmed she would not remain in Australia after her departure, confirming her return to the UK. Her partner Jess Glynne recently confirmed that her mother had suffered a stroke, with Alex now keen to be with her to support her.
The evicted celebrities usually stay until at the hotel until the final. But Alex wanted to be there for Jess, and said: “I want to be there for the wrap party but I need to get home straight away.
“She is my Jessica – I am going to go home and be her rock.” Before she even flew to Australia, Alex agonised over whether to pull out of the show.
In the end, it was Jess who told her she had to go. Speaking to the Mirror previously, she said: “It’s been a tough time for us and obviously her family, and it was a tough decision to come into the jungle, but then Jess never wanted me to step away from not doing it.
“I knew there was always a possibility of her not being across the bridge, if her mum hadn’t got better, or if things had been getting worse, which they have been. But it was a big decision for me to not pass this opportunity, and Jess was the one that pushed me to be here.”
