19 hours ago 3

In a surprising turn of events, Tulisa Contostavlos became the third to be voted out of the I'm A Celeb jungle, visibly shocked by her departure.

As she exited the camp, she confessed to hosts Ant McPartlin and Declan Donnelly that life in the jungle was "hard" and challenging.

She admitted her excitement for a pizza treat after weeks of surviving on rice and beans. "You're just going to be more grateful for everything. The food you eat, the people that you love... you don't realise how good you've got it," she shared with the hosts.

She also described her time in the jungle as "testing", but maintained that she remained true to herself.

On Tuesday morning (December 3), during her appearance on ITV's Lorraine, Tulisa revealed more about her experience in the I'm A Celebrity jungle, hinting that not all her fellow celebrities were as genuine as she had been. When Lorraine asked if she had made lifelong friends in the jungle, Tulisa hesitated before responding: "I feel like I have with some of them. I think they will be friends for life. But a lot of people for the cameras were being very pally pally but the real test will be when everyone is out. Will they make the effort to send texts in the group chat? Will they do the four hour drives to see each other? We'll see..." she pondered.

Lorraine then questioned the N-Dubz singer about who she would like to see win this year's show, to which Tulisa responded without hesitation, reports the Mirror.
