Who won I'm A Celeb 2023?

Check out the final rankings below:
Sam Thompson - 1ST PLACE
Tony Bellew - 2ND PLACE
Nigel Farage - 3RD PLACE
Josie Gibson - 4TH PLACE
Marvin Humes - 5TH PLACE
After being announced King of the Jungle, Sam said: "I'm really overwhelmed! I didn't even think I was going to be invited on this show, let alone sit here!," then addressing the viewers: "I'm so grateful, thank you so much! I've dreamt of doing this show and being invited on for years and years, and you've just made a boy's dream come true."
With a stellar line-up, it's no surprise the 2023 series of I'm A Celeb has been a hit with viewers!
Despite a number of people admitting they were boycotting the show due to former politician Nigel Farage taking part, the series has still been massively successful, thanks to camp mates like Sam Thompson, Marvin Humes, and Josie Gibson.
As well as brutal Bushtucker Trials, this year's celebs have had to deal with torrential rain in camp, and of course, the usual lack of food.
Both Grace Dent and Jamie Lynn Spears were also forced to quit the show, with bosses revealing they left on 'medical grounds' earlier on in the series.
The series has also seen tension between certain camp mates, with Nella Rose getting into heated arguments with both Fred Siriex and Nigel Farage, as well as Fred also getting annoyed at Josie Gibson over the cooking.
