I'm A Celebrity South Africa Final: Live Showdown and Winner Reveal
The end is approaching for I'm A Celebrity South Africa, with the winner set to be crowned in the latest edition of the hit ITV reality contest. This All Stars series has captivated viewers with its intense challenges and dramatic moments, and now the finale promises to deliver an unforgettable conclusion.
When is the I'm A Celebrity South Africa Final?
The final of I'm A Celebrity South Africa will take place this Friday, April 24. Unlike the usual 9pm slot on ITV1, the finale will be aired earlier, with viewers able to tune in between 7.30pm and 9pm for the first part. The second part, where the winner will be crowned, will follow between 10pm and 10.30pm. This schedule allows for a packed evening of entertainment as the campmates reunite and the King or Queen of the jungle is revealed.
Is the Final Live?
Yes, for the first time ever, the All-Star Series will conclude with a live UK studio final. While the main series was filmed in September 2025 at Kruger National Park in South Africa, the finale has not been pre-recorded, giving the public control over choosing the winner. Host Declan Donnelly explained the decision, noting that past winners like Myleene Klass set a high bar, and this live format aims to make the competition tougher and more engaging for viewers.
What to Expect from the Finale
The finale is set to be eventful, with all finalists in the studio. Key highlights include:
- Jimmy Bullard's side of the story: Jimmy has confirmed he plans to address the dramatic fallout with Adam Thomas, promising not to hold back after Sinitta revealed that not all expletives were shown to viewers.
- Trials and meals: Four trials and meals will be squeezed into the first slot to confirm the fourth finalist, followed by the final three battling it out in a similar format to the Australian series.
- Hosts Ant and Dec: The Geordie duo will be on hand to coax out the truth from contestants, adding to the drama and entertainment.
Who is Involved?
The series featured a star-studded lineup, including:
- David Haye
- Seann Walsh
- Scarlett Moffatt
- Adam Thomas
- Sir Mo Farah
- Ashley Roberts
- Sinitta
- Beverley Callard
- Gemma Collins
- Craig Charles
- Jimmy Bullard
- Harry Redknapp
As of now, Seann, David, Gemma, Beverley, and Jimmy have left the show.

This setup ensures a tense and competitive finale as the remaining contestants vie for the title.
