I’m A Celebrity voting percentages revealed as Sam Thompson wins jungle crown
I’M A Celebrity has revealed the voting percentages from last night’s finale, showing the landslide victory of jungle king Sam Thompson.
ITV released two sets of figures- the vote percentages between Sam, Tony Bellew and Nigel Farage for third place, then the figures for the re-opened vote between Sam and Tony to win.
In the vote for third place, Sam scored a whopping 43.35 percent of the vote, while Tony got 30.87 percent and Nigel was closely behind with 25.78 percent.
Then in the final vote for the winner, Sam’s lead extended even further.
In the end, the Made In Chelsea star bagged 56.64 percent of the vote to be crowned the winner, while Tony racked up 43.36 percent.
That means Sam got 13 percent more of the votes to win than his boxer pal.
During the final episode, viewers saw the last standing contestants take on one last challenge before being treated to a luxurious meal of their choosing.
For his final trial, Sam took on a stomach-churning eating challenge which saw him eat a pig’s vagina.
Tony was faced with the Stakeout, where he was strapped down to a giant plate and showered in jungle critters, while Nigel was chucked into the Panic Pit where he won a star for every two minutes he stayed in there.
After the votes had been totted up, hosts Ant and Dec revealed that politician Farage had come in third place, leaving Sam and Tony to duke it out to be the new King of the Jungle.
Tony was then revealed as the runner-up, meaning Sam was the winner.
He takes the crown from Lioness Jill Scott, who beat Hollyoaks star Owen Warner last year to win the competition.
