This year's series of I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here came to an end last night, with Made In Chelsea star Georgia 'Toff' Toffolo being crowned the new Queen of the Jungle. But it was the drama between the boys in the camp which really got people talking.

When radio presenter Iain Lee entered the camp as a late arrival with Scottish MP Kezia Dugdale, he wasn't exactly welcomed with open arms by the likes of Amir Khan, Jamie Lomas and Dennis Wise.

After Amir, Jamie and Dennis had already created a strong friendship with each other, when Iain decided to say "I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here" in one of the trials, the boys weren't too happy and gave Iain a hard time about it.

With some viewers at home accusing them of 'bullying', fans of the show seemed to start a campaign to get them evicted from the famous jungle.

As Iain finished third behind Hollyoaks actor Jamie and Queen of the Jungle Toff, the remaining celebrities all appeared on I'm A Celeb: Extra Camp, where Amir finally broke his silence on the 'bullying' claims.

When Scarlett Moffatt and Joel Dommett spoke to Jamie Lomas about his friendship with Dennis and Amir, Scarlett said, "One of the things I loved watching was your bromance with Amir and Dennis, you are definitely going to stay friends after this aren’t ya?"

Shouting across the studio, Amir said, "‘Ah definitely! And Iain. We’re not bullies, we’re not bullies mate."

Iain then replied saying, "I’ve never used that word. No".

Despite Amir's words, it seems fans of the show still weren't too happy with his behaviour and took to Twitter to vent their anger.

Meanwhile fans were over the moon that Toff was crowned the winner of this year's show after her upbeat personality over the last three weeks.

A number of celebrities took to Twitter to congratulate her:

Vicky Pattison


Jacqueline Jossa


Nadia Essex


Scarlett Moffatt


Kym Marsh


Cara de la Hoyde




Rebekah Vardy


Congrats Toff!

Before I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here ends for another year, the coming out show will air on ITV on Friday 15th December.
