I'm A Celebrity 2024 winner 'already revealed' weeks before final as fans convinced
I'm A Celebrity 2024 viewers think they already know who will win the ITV1 jungle series hosted by Ant and Dec, with an early favourite amongst the line-up
by Charlotte Tutton · The MirrorViewers already think they know the I'm A Celebrity 2024 winner, with the series barely even starting.
The show, hosted by Ant McPartlin and Dec Donnelly, kicked off on Sunday night as the new line-up took on the big challenge. We were introduced to names including McFly's Danny Jones, Coleen Rooney and Coronation Street favourite Alan Halsall.
As the stars met and got on with the challenge ahead, some fans were convinced they already knew this year's winner. From the very first episode and weeks before the live final next month, fans were convinced the launch episode gave away who would be the next jungle champion.
Danny was the first to complete the first challenge between him and others, downing a gross drink before climbing into a helicopter. After jumping out of the chopper with a parachute, he then had to grab a co-star and race across the beach for the next part of the challenge.
Amidst this, viewers saw how quickly he tackled the first challenge and seemed totally unbothered. As others gagged and shared their horror over the challenge, Danny battled on and was first to flee the scene, with fans predicting he could be a good contender for the trials and jungle life.
Taking to X, fans were convinced the singer and Masked Singer UK winner would go onto win the whole show, and be crowned King of the Jungle. One fan posted: "Danny to win king of the jungle."
Another said: "Just crown Danny king now. Man is a BEAST - Tulisa right behind him though... that feels like a top tier top 2 right there already." A third fan said: "Love Danny Jones, hope he wins. Although you know the McFly lads are going to be voting him for the trials."
A further comment read: "Danny is smashing this!!!!! Backing him all the way for the win," as another said: "First impressions. Danny will win, Dean on all the trials." Another comment read: "I'm calling it now Danny will win the show."
The last series of the show was won by series super fan and Made in Chelsea star Sam Thompson. He's making a return this year to host the spin-off series, I'm A Celeb: Unpacked.
It comes as hosts Ant and Dec teased some "bad news" before the first show kicked off. The pair took to their joint Instagram account to divulge their news as Declan said: "Hi everybody, Ant and Dec here. But you knew that. We've got a little update for you, because we know lots of you've been asking about Jungle Club this year. We've got some good news and we got some bad news. I'll start with the bad news, shall I?"
Ant then added: "Jungle Club will not be going on straight after the main show. Sorry. The good news is it will be going on straight after the new ITV2 show. Yay!" Dec continued: "So we are back, but we're a little bit later. Yes, we are. It's Jungle Club: Late & Live. One for all you night owls out there."
The Jungle Club will see Ant and Dec go live on Instagram after the main show as they give their opinions, reactions, share stories and give some exclusive insider details. The duo have been hosting the social media spin-off since 2022.
