The jungle experience is becoming more intense as the competition moves closer to its final stages. With emotions running high and bonds growing stronger, another contestant has now left the camp, marking a turning point for those still in the race.
Martin Kemp Exits the Jungle After 20 Days
After spending nearly three weeks in the jungle, Martin Kemp became the sixth contestant to leave the competition. The public vote placed him in the bottom two alongside Lisa Riley, creating a tense atmosphere among the remaining campmates. For Lisa, it was yet another narrow escape, as she avoided elimination for the third time in a row.
Martin accepted the result with calm and grace, sharing that he felt his journey had reached a natural conclusion. He explained that the experience had given him plenty of memories, challenges, and stories that he would carry with him long after leaving the camp.
Emotional Farewells in the Camp
As the announcement was made, the campmates gathered to say their goodbyes. There were hugs, laughter, and tears as Martin prepared to leave. Many of the contestants expressed how much they would miss his presence, describing him as a steady and reassuring influence during difficult moments.
A Father Figure to Fellow Contestants
Throughout his time in the jungle, Martin earned the respect of his fellow campmates by offering advice, encouragement, and emotional support. Several contestants openly referred to him as a father figure, someone who helped keep morale high when tensions rose. His close bond with Shona stood out, with her playfully calling out “Bye Dad!” as he made his exit.
Hopes for the Final Outcome
Before leaving, Martin shared his support for Shona, expressing his hope that she would go on to win the competition. His words reflected the strong friendships that had formed during the challenging weeks in the jungle.
Earlier Evictions Leave Campmates Shocked
Martin’s exit came shortly after another surprising elimination earlier in the week, which left the camp reeling and emotionally drained.
Ruby Wax’s Unexpected Departure
Ruby Wax became the fifth contestant to leave the jungle, an outcome that shocked many of the remaining participants. Her departure was met with disbelief, as she had been a strong and outspoken presence in the camp, known for her honesty and humour.
Campmates React With Emotion
The reaction to Ruby’s exit was immediate and heartfelt. Several contestants struggled to hide their emotions, openly sharing how much her conversations and companionship had meant to them. Her absence created a noticeable shift in the camp dynamic.
Lisa Riley’s Close Call Continues
Lisa Riley, who had been sharing living space with Ruby, was visibly emotional as she watched her leave. Despite surviving multiple eliminations, the repeated close calls have added pressure, making her journey increasingly tense as the competition moves forward.
With familiar faces now gone and the stakes higher than ever, the remaining contestants continue to push themselves both physically and emotionally. As the finale approaches, every decision, relationship, and public vote carries greater weight in determining who will ultimately take the crown.
