fans were left bewildered by a comment made at the end of the show, which they’re convinced was an accidental slip that wasn’t intended for viewers’ ears.
In Sunday evening’s episode, we watched another instalment of the reality show as 12 celebrities competed for the coveted title of King or Queen of the Jungle.
The show wrapped up with revealing who would face Monday’s daunting Bushtucker Trial, leaving contestant Dean McCullough visibly disappointed at being picked again for the stomach-churning task. As the show came to a close with live scenes from the camp, his fellow competitors were spotted offering words of support.
The next trial, named Jack and the Screamstalk, led to speculate to Dean that it might involve conquering a fear of heights. Remembering their previous trial, she reminded him: “You said crossing that bridge that heights don’t bother you.”
Both Tulisa Contostavlos and the Reverend Richard Coles were exempt from the trial due to medical excusals, reports .

As the episode concluded, Tulisa added her supportive voice to the chorus, saying: “I know it’s heights because it’s what I’m medically exempt from.”
Fans were abruptly cut off from the action as the broadcast switched away after this comment, causing a stir on social media platform X where viewers speculated whether this tidbit was meant to be aired.
One fan said, “Anyone else hear that from Tulisa in the closing seconds of tonight’s #ImACeleb? She knew the task would be heights because she read it in the exemptions… I’m not sure we were meant to hear that.”
Another viewer questioned: “Tulisa jumped out a helicopter, how’s she exempt from heights?”
A third added: “Tulisa saying she knows it’s heights as that’s what she’s exempt from? Did I dream her jumping out a plane at the start of the series?”
The episode saw Coleen take on her first Bushtucker Trial, Absolute Carnage. Before the challenge, she shared a story about her life in America when her husband, , played for DC United.
The 38-year-old revealed that she and her husband were invited to the White House to meet during his first term as President. Trump had asked Rooney to teach his son to play football.
However, made by the 78-year-old. She recalled: “We walked in, and we got to get the official photograph taken in front of the Christmas tree.
“So said to his son, ‘See? Told ya, all the soccer players get the good looking girls’.” Coleen was unimpressed by the comment from the controversial President and didn’t mince her words as she said: “And I told my mum, I was like ‘dirty b*****d’.”
