Her family – who have been running the account – have since spoken out by posting on Nella’s Instagram sharing a sweet picture of Nella congratulation her as no one greeted her on the bridge
It captioned: ‘SOO PROUD OF OUR JUNGLE QUEEN. She SMASHED every trial with no doubt. Appreciate all the love and support #TeamNella.’
In addition to the glam snap, they also shared a photo of Nella leaving the jungle bridge and wrote alongside it: ‘SO PROUD OF OUR JUNGLE QUEEN. Sad to see you go Nells but you SMASHED EVERY TRIAL with no doubts.
‘We truly appreciate every single person who voted and supported our Queen. TeamNella4Eva.’
She has since reunited with her brother, who jetted to Australia to be beside her after she became the second campmate voted out the jungle.
Older sibling Albert, 27, landed at Brisbane airport hours after she was given the boot from hosts Ant McPartlin and Declan Donnelly, with the star not met by anyone as she crossed the show’s famous bridge.
Friends of Nella told MailOnline that she needs a day to ‘process’ her time on the ITV series, which saw the presenter challenge politician Nigel Farage and fallout with Fred Sirieix.
Nella has already pulled out of her first interview since leaving the jungle, leaving ITV viewers perplexed on Tuesday morning.
The social media star’s subsequent interview on breakfast show Lorraine was later cancelled without explanation.

ITV viewers were left perplexed on Tuesday morning after Nella Rose pulled out of her first interview since leaving I’m A Celebrity … Get Me Out Of Here!
Lorraine Kelly confirmed Nella would not be appearing on the show during her handover with Good Morning Britain
The social media influencer was the second campmate to be voted out of the jungle after winning the least amount of public votes
‘I can tell you what’s coming up following Nella’s jungle exit last night,’ host Lorraine Kelly told viewers during her handover with Good Morning Britain hosts Susanna Reid and Ed Balls.
‘It’s a shame she’s not talking to anybody, but anyway, I’m going to be joined by Nick Pickard’s girlfriend, Sarah.’
Typically, contestants will be interviewed remotely by the Scottish presenter after leaving the jungle camp, with first evictee Frankie Dettori featuring on Monday’s show.
But Nella opted out of the pre-arranged live appearance to give herself time to ‘rest and recover’, leaving producers in an eleventh hour scramble to fill her slot.
A source close to Nella told MailOnline: ‘All Nella needs right now is a day to relax and process all the happenings from her time on I’m A Celeb.
‘While she absolutely loved her experience, there has also been a lot to digest and discuss with ITV plus her team, she didn’t feel ready to be interviewed on live television by Lorraine just yet.
‘Her brother Albert arrived in Australia shortly after she was evicted from the show, and it means the world to her having him by her side.
‘It may have looked like she wasn’t met by anyone close to her as she crossed the I’m A Celeb bridge, but her brother wasn’t far away.’
The TikTok sensation was clapped in by the friends and family of her campmates still in the Jungle and the first eliminated campmate Frankie Detorri

UK based family members have watched her on the show and were convinced that her ‘Congolese spirit’ would see her win – but it was not to be.
A relative said she is from a close-knit family and told of their sadness that she didn’t reach out and ask them for help when her mother died suddenly in her arms – and she was evicted from the family home.
Speaking exclusively to MailOnline, the relative recently said: ‘All of Nella’s siblings and other members of her family, wherever they are in the world, are watching her in the jungle – and praying that she wins.
‘We are very proud of her achievements, it’s amazing what she’s done. She is showing the fighting spirit of the Congolese people and we are all with her.
‘There is a lot of love for her as we are a caring Congolese family even though we live in different countries. She also has an aunt, her mother’s sister, who lives in London. And her father came from a very large, well to do family.
‘There are lots of them in the Congo and others spread across Europe. She could have turned to anyone of us for help.’
After leaving, the influencer made her way to the nearby Marriot hotel in Surfers Paradise on the Gold Coast, where she was clapped in by the friends and family of campmates still in the jungle.
Before leaving the site Nella was seen by doctors for a physical and psychiatric test and taken through the social media coverage of her time in camp.

The YouTuber’s relationship with Fred Sirieix became strained after he remarked ‘I could be your dad’ during a conversation about age, which promoted a negative reaction from Nella, who lost her father in 2020
The left-leaning Influencer inevitably disagreed with Farage (pictured) on almost everything during her time in the jungle camp
Nella defended her controversial jungle clashes after becoming the second star voted off the ITV show on Monday
When Dec asked if the incident could have merely a ‘misunderstanding’ she replied: ‘It could have been!’
She may be shocked to learn the public did not warm to her after her rows with former UKIP leader Nigel Farage and unwarranted outburst at First Dates star Fred Sirieix prompted 20,000 complaints to Ofcom.
She will spend the next week at the Marriott while the other celebrities are voted off.
Nella endured eight Bushtucker Trials during her stint on the show, but her biggest challenge was living with the likes of former UKIP leader Nigel and First Dates star Fred.
The YouTuber’s relationship with Fred became strained after he remarked ‘I could be your dad’ during a conversation about their age difference, which promoted a negative reaction from Nella, who lost her father in 2020.
While discussing Fred’s comment, Nella explained to the food connoisseur: ‘To me, I don’t care how you said it, to me, that’s disrespectful, and I don’t want to talk to you. I don’t want to talk to you, I don’t want to be around you.
‘I only allow people to disrespect me once. Don’t bring up my dead parent, are you stupid? ‘You know I could be your dad right?’ You’re a weirdo.’
Following their disagreement, Nella and Fred made amends while competing in one of the show’s challenges.
Nella has lost both her parents, her father Paul Hollela passed away in May 2020 after contracting coronavirus and her mother Eseho Omolongo died of a stroke in August 2016.
During once incident Nella lashed out at the First Dates star, 51, for saying he could ‘be her father’ because of their 25-year age gap, claiming it was disrespectful
But during her exit interview with host Ant and Dec she once again blasted the Frenchman saying: ‘I just feel that in the middle of an argument or a disagreement, you shouldn’t bring up personal, sensitive topics’
She was left homeless after she and brother Albert were given just 30 days to vacate their London flat following their mother’s passing.
During her exit interview with host Ant and Dec she once again blasted the Frenchman saying: ‘I just feel that in the middle of an argument or a disagreement, you shouldn’t bring up personal, sensitive topics,’
‘And I feel that in the middle of a disagreement, he brought up a sensitive topic. I didn’t understand why he would do that to somebody that he doesn’t know [well].’
However when Dec asked if the incident could have merely a ‘misunderstanding’ she replied: ‘It could have been! But things are so heightened in the jungle that everything is a big thing’.
She also came to blows with former Brexit Leader Nigel over the subject of immigration and racism.
After being showed clips of the clashes Nella exclaimed: ‘Oh my god, you used everything. I am not usually put in situations where people don’t have opinions in the same walk of life,’
‘So when they have different mindsets, and I hear them, I’m shocked because I’m not used to hearing people think like this’.
She added: ‘So automatically, you have to say something about it because what they’ve said to me it’s kind of shocking sometimes. But it is what it is’.
