I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! fans are heartbroken following Denise Drysdale’s elimination from the jungle on Wednesday night.
With ‘over half a million votes’ cast to save their favourite stars, Denise, 76, was sent home – but it seemed the television presenter was eager to leave.
Disappointed viewers have since taken to social media to vent their frustrations over the former Studio 10 co-host’s departure, claiming fellow campmate Candice Warner should have been eliminated first instead.
‘SHOULD’VE BEEN CANDICE she’s next to go,’ one user said.
‘Australia has voted… It’s time to go Candice,’ added another, while someone else agreed, ‘It’s time to go… Candice.’

The Studio 10 star bid her fellow celebrities a bittersweet goodbye, before telling hosts Robert Irwin and Julia Morris she was glad to be out of the jungle for good.
‘Oh, it was more than what I expected,’ she admitted, adding that there was nothing ‘bitter’ about her exit despite only entering the camp as an intruder last week.

‘Can I say not so bitter?! It’s sweet! I’m sorry, I have to be – I have to be completely honest!’
She continued: ‘It is s**t in there! It is s**t, it’s unbelievable! The dunnies, the dirt! Now I’m a clean person – there’s dirt upon dirt upon dirt upon dirt.’
Despite her subpar experience in the South African jungle, Denise said she was ‘glad’ to have gone on the show and ‘proud’ of what she accomplished on it.

Every year, the celebrities are able to choose a luxury item they can win during the series, with stars often choosing pictures of their loved ones, comfortable cushions and beauty products.
However, Denise received mixed reactions from her campmates when she revealed her unique luxury items were her mother and father’s ashes.
Her admission prompted very mixed reactions from her co-stars, with some looking completely stunned, while others appeared moved by the gesture.
