We’re smack bang in the middle of I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here 2026, watching our celebrities handle bonkers challenges in the South African jungle!
Now that we know the identities of the celebrities, it’s only a matter of time before they start getting the boot.
Who has been eliminated from the I’m A Celeb jungle?
This week, Barry Williams became the third celebrity eliminated from the I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here jungle.
Barry and Neighbours star Rebekah Elmaloglou were sent to the Elephant’s Graveyard for a nail-biting elimination challenge. They had to drop a ball through a zig-zag of tunnels and time it perfectly to land on the pontoon of a tugboat which was circling a moat below.
Big Bad Bazza started off well, but eventually, it was Rebekah who came out on top and sent Barry through the Tunnel of Doom.
While three have been booted, another has said the magic words “I’m a celebrity.. get me out of here” so far.
After days of clashing with her camp mates and, admittedly, struggling to use the drop toilet, singer Deni Hines decided to call it quits after six days in the jungle.
For more about our eliminated celebs — and who is remaining in the jungle — keep on reading.
Barry Williams — Hollywood Sitcom Star
Fans of The Brady Bunch will be overjoyed to see this familiar face chuck on a red shirt and an Akubra on I’m A Celeb!
Barry Williams, the 71-year-old actor who portrayed the eldest son, Greg Brady, in the 1970s classic sitcom The Brady Bunch. Between 1969 and 1988, Barry has reprised his iconic role on and off — he even participated in the reality series A Very Brady Renovation in 2019!
Barry also made appearances in series like Full House, That 70s Show and Scrubs, before appearing on the US iteration of The Masked Singer in 2022 and Dancing With The Stars in 2023.
Matt Zukowski — Reality TV Bad Boy
Australia was first introduced to Matt Zukowski when he appeared on season two of Love Island Australia in 2019. At the time, 24-year-old Matt was an international model and a wrestler who worked under the pseudonym Charlie Matthews.
Since then, he’s also launched a podcast alongside fellow Islander Anna McEvoy called “Where’s Your Head At”.
In 2024, Matt started dating Aussie influencer Tammy Hembrow. The pair got engaged after eight weeks and married in a lavish ceremony seven months later. Sadly, they also got divorced in June 2025.
Not to be a gossip but fingers crossed he’ll open up about their whirlwind romance in the jungle.
Rachel Hunter— International Supermodel
Rachel Hunter is a New Zealand born model and actress who has graced the covers of some of the biggest magazines in the world, including Harpers Bizarre, Vogue and Sports Illustrated.
When Rachel was 21, she fell in love with singer Rod Stewart, who was 24 years her senior. The pair got married three years later, eventually separating in 1999 after eight years of marriage.
As far as reality television goes, Rachel was one of the first stars to appear in Dancing with the Stars in the US in 2005 and she appeared as a judge on New Zealand’s Got Talent from 2012 to 2013. In recent years, Rachel has leaned into her spirituality, becoming a yoga and meditation teacher.
Deni Hines — 90s Pop Star
Back in the 90s, you couldn’t escape the impeccable pop stylings of Deni Hines.
The 55-year-old is the daughter of iconic Australian singer Marcia Hines and she burst onto the scene in the early 80s after she released a few tracks with the band Rockmelons (AKA The Rockies).
After that, she went solo releasing certified bangers such as “It’s Alright” and “Water for Chocolate”.
In 2019, Deni competed on The Masked Singer.
Who is still in the I’m A Celeb jungle?
George Calombaris — Chef
If there’s one thing every season of I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here needs, it’s a chef. So, thankfully for the current campmates, former MasterChef judge George Calombaris will be jetting into the camp on Sunday!
George, 47, is a Green-Australian chef and restaurateur who became a media figure when he joined the MasterChef Australia cast in 2009. He was on the show until 2019.
In 2008, George was awarded Chef Of The Year by The Age’s Good Food Guide. However, in 2019, the chef’s company MAdE Establishment Group admitted to underpaying 515 employees wages by $7.83 million. At the time, he apologised to all affected team members and backpaid the money back to the employees who were underpaid.
Shortly after, George, along with his fellow MasterChef judges Matt Preston and Gary Mehigan, were replaced by Jock Zonfrillo, Andy Allen and Melissa Leong.
We can’t wait to see whether George will speak out about the drama in the jungle!
Cyrell Paule — Reality Bridezilla
Audiences first met reality star Cyrell Paule when she appeared on the 2019 season of Married At First Sight.
She nabbed headlines for clashing with fellow bride Martha Kalifatidis, leading to one of the most iconic and conflict-filled dinner parties in the show’s history.
Since then, Cyrell has appeared on The Challenge and The Amazing Race alongside her former Love Island star fiancé, Eden Dally.
Concetta Caristo — Radio Queen
If you’ve ever switched on Triple J in the mornings recently, you would’ve heard the hilarious stylings of Concetta Caristo.
The 31-year-old is an Aussie radio presenter and comedian who has been performing stand up since 2019 and presenting the breakfast show on the network since 2022.
Always down for a good time, Concetta will no doubt bring the laughs into the South African jungle.
Gary Sweet — Logie-Winning Actor
If you’re a fan of Aussie television, you’d know of Gary Sweet. Since the 1980s, the 68-year-old has had a solid career across film and television starring in series such as Police Rescue where he played Sergeant Steve “Mickey” McClintock from 1990 to 1996.
He was such a hit in that role that he won the TV WEEK Silver Logie for Most Popular and Most Outstanding Actor in 1994.
Gary went on to play Lewis Crabb in House Husbands from 2012 to 2017. Interestingly, his wife on the show was played by none other than Julia Morris — the host of I’m A Celeb!
We can’t wait to see these two reconnect in the jungle!
Nath Valvo — Stand Up Star
Nath Valvo is this season’s stand up super star! Not only has Nath spent years performing comedy around the country, he’s also an award-nominated screen writer and actor.
You might recognise Nath from appearances on The Cheap Seats, Spicks and Specks and Talking About Your Generation.
Rebekah Elmaloglou — Soap Royalty
Nobody knows their way around an Aussie soap opera set like Rebekah Elmaloglou!
The 51-year-old actress has been on our screens for decades. She landed her first big mainstream role as an asthmatic street kid on E Street before landing a contract with Home and Away from 1990 to 1993.
After dabbling in film, theatre and various other TV roles, the Logie-winner joined the Neighbours cast in 2013 where she played Paul Robinson’s final lady love, Terese Willis.
Mia Fevola — Jungle Princess
Who would’ve thought we’d see the offspring of a former I’m A Celeb winner head into the jungle?
Mia Fevola is the daughter of former footy player Brendan Fevola who won season two in 2016 — yep, making her a jungle princess.
Outside of her famous father, the 26-year-old is a model, content creator and a makeup artist with a degree in marketing. In 2015, she also appeared on Dancing With The Stars.
As this is her second time in the jungle, we can’t wait to see how she goes!
Luke Bateman — Rugby Playing Romeo
The first announcement of the former Bachelor star was made in a collab post on Instagram between Luke, Channel 10 and the official I’m A Celeb Instagram page.
“In some very exciting news, I will be trading the Australian outback for the African jungle on I’m A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here,” he said.
“I’ll be going into the jungle representing my charity, Farm Angels, which is a charity very close to my heart. They do amazing work in my community and I’m very excited to see what Robert and Julia have cooked up for me.
“I’m sure there’ll be some delectable food items and some fear-instilling trials. I can’t wait. I’ll see you all in the jungle.”
Speaking to News.com, Luke said he jumped at the opportunity to go on the show.
“When someone tells you that you get to have a once in a lifetime experience that not many other people get to do and they will pay you to do it, your answer is yes!” he said.
In case you’re not familiar, Luke first entered the public eye when he played NRL for the Canberra Raiders from 2015 to 2019. He loved playing footy, but tragically he suffered a knee injury that made him hang up his boots professionally.
He went back to his family farm before applying for season 11 of The Bachelor Australia in 2023. He starred in the series alongside two other bachelors, Wesley Senna Cortes and Ben Waddell. At the end of the series, Luke chose Ellie Rolfe.
The pair dated for six months, and even got matching tattoos, before splitting up in March 2024.
In April 2025, Luke decided to join TikTok so he could share his love for reading under the username @lukereads. He exploded into popularity on BookTok (a subculture on TikTok where people discuss – you guessed it – books).
His first post gained more than two million views and he’s been posting ever since. That same year, he also revealed that he had been signed with Atria Books Australia for a two-book deal for his own fantasy novels.
