Lorraine Kelly ‘lets slip’ when I’m A Celeb’s first eviction will be after string of early jungle exits
LORRAINE Kelly appeared to let slip when the first I'm A Celebrity eviction will be taking place.
The programme was thrown into chaos when Grace Dent and Jamie Lynn Spears quit the show due to medical reasons within days of one another.
Speaking on her ITV Daytime show today, Lorraine suggested there will be a delay in the vote-offs of at least a few days.
Many believed evictions would begin tonight in line with previous years which saw a contestant given the boot on the series' penultimate Friday.
Last night Ant and Dec took a swipe at Jamie Lynn and Grace following their exits.
Walking into the treetop jungle studio, Dec told viewers: "Hello, good morning, good evening!

"Welcome to a historic day here in Australia and the big news is nobody has walked out of the jungle for a whole 24 hours."
Continuing the gag, Ant added: "I mean I'll be honest the weather has been so bad this year me and Dec have thought about leaving!"
The Sun previously revealed how Jamie Lynn held crisis talks with ITV execs before walking out of camp.
ITV bosses were able to support Jamie Lynn through 11 days on the show, as success in the Climb of Cruelty and Scarena Series buoyed her and delayed the inevitable.
But ultimately she blasted: “I hate it here so much, I hate it, I hate it, I hate it here.
“This place is where people go to have the worst days of their lives.”
While Grace wrote on social media: "The jungle showed me that I am physically stronger than I thought; I can carry a lot of logs and water up hill, build fire and eat hare innards at dawn for breakfast.
"I hope I gave you all a smile. I didn’t go out as I planned or I wanted, but I did what I could, and I did it in a siren red gel manicure without chipping a nail. My plan is to recover…and when the adrenaline finally ebbs away, to make some serious plans for dinner."
