I'm A Celeb fans spotted Shane Richie talking about new arrivals BEFORE they arrived
Did you spot this? 👀
We may only be less than a week in to this year's I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here, but already bosses have thrown in two brand new faces, in the form of West End star Ruthie Henshall and tenor Russell Watson.
The pair arrived onto the show during last night's episode where they took part in gruesome trial 'Stage Fright' in an attempt to win stars for their new camp mates, and they certainly proved their worth getting an impressive 11 stars.
But before their big arrival, eagle-eyed viewers of the show believe they heard Shane Ritchie referring to the new faces BEFORE they arrived.
If you cast your minds back to Tuesday night's episode, where Ant and Dec entered the living quarters to reveal that all 10 celebs would take part in the latest trial, viewers heard Shane say the words 'R and R'.
As the celebs celebrated the news, Shane confidently said, "R and R... stage fright... R and R," before Vernon Kay repeated the words and nodded his head, leading viewers to think the original celebs already knew about Ruthie and Russell's late arrival.
Fans of the show were quick to discuss the matter online, one Twitter user wrote, 'Can I just confirm that on this evenings @imacelebrity Shane Ritchie stated that tomorrow it was R & R doing the trial so no, it isn’t ‘new’ bombshell arrivals (and yes I take this stuff seriously Rolling on the floor laughing)'. (sic)
Another wrote, 'Do they know who’s joining them? Shane Ritchie clearly said “it’s R and R” when they repeated the trial title and before we were introduced to two new camp mates @imacelebrity #ImACeleb'. (sic)
A third added, 'Did anyone else just hear Shane Ritchie saying it’s R and R when the camp mates were talking? Both new campmates’ names start with R #ImACeleb', with another writing, 'how comes Shane Ritchie mentioned r and r! Did they know???????'. (sic)
