Nigel Farage eats camel's udder in I'm a Celebrity Bushtucker trial

The return of I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! is upon us.

The reality series has returned to screens last night, with the second episode of the 2023 season airing right now on ITV.

Viewers will get to know new crop of celebrities decamping to the Australian outback in the hopes of being crowned this year’s King or Queen of the Jungle.

All eyes will undoubtedly be on former Ukip and Brexit party MEP Nigel Farage who, following in the footsteps of disgraced politician Matt Hancock last year, is among the stars who have entered the jungle.

Farage is joined by This Morning’s Josie Gibson, Jamie Lynn Spears, and YouTuber Nella Rose. You can find the full line-up of 2023 campmates here.

It is no surprise that the politician-turned-GB News presenter was voted by the public to take part in the first disgusting eating trial of the series. Tonight, we will see just how much he will eat to win stars for camp...

In a preview clip of tonight’s episode, Farage and YouTuber Rose take part in the “Jungle Pizzeria” challenge. The politician is served a “Margar-teat-a” – a pizza topped with a camel udder, a sheep udder and the teat of cow served on a layer of creamy cheese.

Farage tucks into the pizza and remarks that the texture is “tough” as Rose, who is sitting across from him, squirms and shouts “Farage!”.

The politician-turned-GB News presenter previously said that he would not be able to take part in some of the bushtucker trials due to health problems resulting from a 2010 plane crash.

I’m a Celeb airs every night except Saturdays at 9pm on ITV1 and ITVX.
