Down (and out) under! Melanie Sykes is voted off I'm A Celebrity in THIRD place - leaving Foggy and Jake to compete for King of the Jungle title

Turning point? She thanked the crew for having her on the show, which was a personal milestone for her


Melanie Sykes has become the first finalist to be voted off I'm A Celebrity.
The brunette TV presenter, who spent much of the series flaunting her body in a bikini, was evicted from the camp on Sunday evening.
The news means that boy power will rule the outback, this year - with either Foggy or Jake Quickenden being crowned King of the Jungle.

Speaking to Ant and Dec in a post-departure interview, she reflected on her time in the competition.
'If I'm honest I'm a bit gutted I'm not in the final because I was so close to it, but I had an absolute ball.
'It was better than I expected. I thought it would be more hellish and I wasn't sure I'd last, but it exceeded my expectations and I made some great friends.'


Speaking about her myriad Bushtucker Trials, she proved her commitment to conquering her fears.
'As soon as I started the trials I wanted to leave, but I couldn't when Jimmy did first - so i knew I had to start. I was silly cow sometimes.'
'I never once said: I'm chef, but people constantly told me how to cook. I wanted to blow my top so many times. For years I haven't been able to control my temper and count to ten, but I managed to do it in here.'  

She also specified how she became very close to the men in the team.
 'I really missed Jimmy and I had some tears over the men who left. That said, I really want Foggy to win. Jake's got time to develop his career, but it's Foggy who's been in there with me the longest.
