I'm A Celebrity viewers have worked out why Sue Cleaver is exempt from eating trials.
The Coronation Street actress is renowned for her role as Eileen Grimshaw on the Cobbles. The soap star is one of the 12 campmates competing on the latest season of I'm A Celeb.
Sue has quickly developed into a fan favourite as TV's toughest entertainment challenge returns to its spiritual home in Australia. Hosts Ant and Dec announced at the end of last night's show the celebrities set to compete on the upcoming Bushtucker trial.

Matt Hancock and Boy George were voted for to take on the infamous eating challenge, La Cucaracha Cafe. However, fans following the show on Twitter wondered why Sue was exempt from the vote.
Dan said: "Why is Sue exempt from an eating trial #ImACeleb confused"
David added: "How the hell can Sue be exempt from an EATING TRIAL? #ImACeleb"
It hasn't been officially confirmed why Sue has been spared from potentially being picked to face some Bushtucker Trials, but many believe it may be related to the star's health.
Sue's Type 2 diabetes diagnosis became public knowledge back in 2011 after the soap star received hospital treatment when she collapsed on the set of Coronation Street. According to the NHS, diabetes is a lifelong condition that causes a person's blood sugar level to become too high.
Type 2 diabetes is when the sufferer's body cannot produce enough insulin. Fans on Twitter claimed Sue would be exempt from the trial due to the condition.
Roisin said: "Sue has type 2 diabetes so I’d say it wouldn’t be safe for her to take part."
Brazen added: "Does Sue Cleaver have diabetes? I thought I spotted an insulin arm patch on her and now she’s exempt from the eating trial"
