Nope, none of this serves up an opportunity where one is at their peak to meet their perfect romanic match.
But strangely, a number of seasons of I'm A Celebrity Australia has somehow managed to achieve quite the contrary.
From Barry Hall and Lauren Brant to Charlotte Crosby and Ryan Gallagher. You'd be surprised to learn of some of the sparks that have flown in the depths of the jungle.

![Things heated up quickly between the two, with many fans noting the chemistry between them when Abbie gave Ash a convenient massage just a few episodes in.
