I’m A Celebrity stars Shona McGarty and Alex Scott have confessed to smuggling prohibited items into the jungle camp.
I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here star Shona McGarty found herself in hot water after it was discovered she had smuggled forbidden items into the camp.
The ITV jungle show has stringent rules about what celebrities can bring into the camp, but many series have seen stars sneak in everything from condiments to teabags.
In the episode of the show that aired on Monday (November 24), it was revealed that EastEnders actress Shona and former footballer Alex Scott had both broken the rules.
Shona managed to sneak in an air freshener, while Alex brought packets of salt and pepper into the camp.

Their secret was exposed as the campmates were preparing for dinner in the latest episode.
Just as they were preparing to tuck in, a laminate arrived in camp without a meal, much to everyone’s surprise.
The laminate disclosed that contraband was present in the camp and due to this rule violation, the celebrities would lose one star from their dinner.
They were then informed there was an amnesty period where anyone who had smuggled in contraband should confess to avoid further punishment.
Upon hearing this, a guilty-looking Shona rose and headed off to the dunny, with Alex following suit to retrieve her backpack.
Standing side by side, they both confessed to the rest of the camp about their smuggled items – Shona had brought in an air freshener for the dunny, while Alex had been secretly adding salt and pepper from sachets she’d smuggled in to their nightly meals.
She admitted that she only had one sachet left after using the rest to enhance their dinners.
Looking a bit embarrassed, the stars both said sorry for breaking the I’m a Celebrity rules.
They then handed over their illicit items to ensure no further penalties for their fellow celebs and to secure their evening meal.
I’m A Celebrity…Get Me Out Of Here! is broadcast every night at 9pm on ITV1, STV, ITVX & STV Player.
