I'm A Celeb fury as fans say runner-up Andy was 'robbed' of the crown

Ex-EastEnders actress Jacqueline Jossa was crowned Queen of the Jungle during I'm A Celeb's final last night, with Coronation Street star Andy Whyment coming in second.

Although plenty of viewers were happy with the outcome, there was arguably more so who were outraged that the Corrie star wasn't crowned King.

Some upset fans have even gone as far as to claim Jacqueline's victory was "a fix" and that Andy was in fact "robbed" of the crown.

One Twitter user posted: "As IF Jaqueline has won I’m a celeb all she’s done is cry for 3 weeks. Andy is my KING"

Another also wrote: "Fact: Andy got robbed blind by I’m a celeb"

A third said: "I'm a celeb is trash, Andy is the real king"

"Not gonna lie, fuming at the I’m a celeb outcome. Andy is fantastic", a fourth added.

Fresh from leaving the show, Andy appeared on Lorraine this morning, revealing how humbled he was to come in second place.

Speaking to Lorraine, he admitted he had "never cried so much" while he was in there.

He added: "I was just myself and thankfully people seemed to like me for me and that was so humbling... you don't realise how hard it is in there."

Meanwhile, others have been disappointed that third place winner Roman Kemp didn't come out higher in the voting ranks, with some saying he should have won or at least come in second place.

"Don't think Jacqueline deserved to win I'm a celeb, was really hoping Andy or roman won", Becca Beveridge said.

However, lots of people were happy for the 27-year-old actress to win, who often struggled with the Bushtucker Trials during her time on the game show.

One fan put: "So freaking happy Jacqueline won I'm a Celeb last night!!!!"

Another also said: "I'm so happy for Jacqueline, and also happy for Andy for coming so far.. funny how everyone says it’s a fix when the results aren’t what they wanted jac won because people voted for her, me included. Loved I’m a celeb this year not sure what I’ll do now it’s finished! Xx"
