Kate and Cait become the first I'm A Celeb contestants to face bushtucker trial

Two I'm A Celebrity contestants were picked to face the first Bushtucker trial of the 2019 I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! competition.

The public whittled down the contestants to Kate Garraway and Caitlyn Jenner to be the first to face a challenge called Bugged Off.

As the launch episode of the show reached a conclusion, show hosts Ant and Dec broke news to the camp that someone would be facing a trial.

And after revealing Caitlyn could face a trail, Kate gasped when she realised she was the last to be named - meaning she could also be in the line of bad luck.

Usually, one person will face a trial, but Ant and Dec hammed up the tension by revealing both women would face the challenge.

Following the reveal that Caitlyn would be one half of the trial pair, viewers took to Twitter to joke that her ex wife may have been behind the result of the public vote.

Memes and gifs galore flooded the social media site with images of Kris Jenner (who Caitlyn was married to between 1991 and 2015 and they share two daughters) repeatedly hitting a laptop.

Another fan tweeted: "Kris, we know you’re rich but how many phones did you have to buy to vote for Caitlyn to do tomorrow’s trial?"

Other fans feared that it could be the beginning of a trend for the 2019 competition.

"Caitlyn is gonna get picked for every trial isn’t she?" one fan wrote on Twitter.

Earlier in the episode, viewers watched rugby superstar James Haskell and Radio 1 star Adele Roberts rummage through insect filled boxes to complete another task.

James revealed he had a fear of bugs as he was covered by ants during the task.

While Adele screamed throughout the challenge as she received tokens from boxes - but was rewarded when she won the task.

Tune into I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! every night on ITV at 9pm.
