As the days go by, the anticipation for the first elimination on I'm A Celebrity 2024 is building up. The campmates, including GK Barry, Maura Higgins, and Reverend Richard Coles, have formed a strong bond in the jungle. However, it won't be long until one of them is sent packing. Despite causing frustration for Ant McPartlin and receiving backlash from viewers on social media for his failed Bushtucker Trials, Dean McCullough is not the top contender for elimination according to leading bookies.
Instead, it is Loose Women star Jane Moore, 62, who is predicted to be the first contestant to leave the show. Coral, one of the top bookmakers, has placed her as the 5-4 favorite to be eliminated from I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out of Here. Following close behind are Melvin Odoom at 5-2 and Dean McCullough at 3-1. Oti Mabuse and Richard Coles have odds of 7-2 and 9-2, while Barry McGuigan is at 5-1. On the other hand, the odds-on favorite to be crowned King or Queen of the Jungle is Danny Jones at 5-6, followed by Coleen Rooney at 5-2 and Maura at 5-1.
According to Coral's spokesperson John Hill, Jane Moore seems to be the unfortunate first contestant to leave the jungle this year. In the outright market, Danny Jones is a popular choice and is expected to be crowned the King of the Jungle. The official date for the first elimination is yet to be confirmed by ITV, but typically it happens 14 days after the first episode, which means it could happen on Sunday.
Contrary to predictions, Dean is expected to survive the first elimination, according to Coral. However, there is also a chance that Melvin could be the first star to leave the jungle. Earlier this week, social media buzzed with speculations that Dean would be the first one to fly back to the UK after a fallout with Alan Halsall. Their first row of the series occurred when the Coronation Street star tried to wake Dean from a nap to help Jane Moore collect wood for the fire. When Dean didn't respond, Alan decided to go down with Jane to keep her company.
As Dean joined them, he told Alan that he could go back now. Alan explained that he was trying to wake Dean up gently. But Dean responded, saying that if he's going to wake him up, he needs to give him a minute. He further explained that it takes a couple of minutes for his contact lenses to start working again, and Alan didn't need to ask if he's interested and then walk away. The back and forth between the two continued as they repeated their points, and Alan apologized for his comments coming across the wrong way.
Fans on social media believed that Dean's behavior could lead to his elimination, with one user saying that Dean's actions of pretending to be asleep and giving attitude should get him out of the show. Another user agreed, saying that Dean might have just earned himself the first elimination. The drama in the jungle continues tonight at 9 pm on ITV and ITVX.
