In a dramatic turn of events on I'm A Celebrity...Get Me Out Of Here!, two campmates have been exposed for smuggling strictly forbidden contraband into the jungle, resulting in collective punishment for the entire group.
The Great Contraband Scandal
Alex Scott, the former footballer, was first to be caught red-handed during dinner preparations. While cooking a stir-fry for her campmates, she forgot the ever-present cameras and produced five sachets of salt and pepper from her pocket, pouring the banned seasoning directly into the rice.
The production team swiftly responded to this rule-breaking, with hosts Ant and Dec delivering punishment on 26 November 2025. The camp's hard-earned star total was reduced from 12 to 11, directly impacting their ability to exchange for food supplies.
Confession and Consequences
Following an announcement that offered amnesty for honesty, Shona McGarty immediately crumbled under pressure. The former EastEnders actress revealed she had been hiding one massive air freshener in her bag, leaving her co-stars astonished at how she'd concealed the large aerosol for so long.
According to insiders, McGarty had obtained the toilet spray from the ITV production team after a trial and decided to keep it rather than surrender it as required by camp regulations.
What's Actually Banned in Camp?
The incident prompted questions about what items are strictly prohibited in the jungle environment. The comprehensive banned list includes:
- Pillows, blankets, and teddies
- Photos of family members
- Pens, paper, books, and games
- Make-up and cosmetics
- Spices, herbs, and seasonings
- External food not provided by camp
- Teabags
- Clocks and watches
- Any clothing not provided by production besides underwear
Following the contraband controversy, rapper Aitch pleaded with his jungle family to surrender any other hidden items. With no further confessions emerging, it appears the campmates have fallen back in line with the rules - at least for now.
