There are concerns for I’m A Celebrity star Tom Read Wilson after his camp bestie Ruby Wax was voted off in a shock elimination.
On Wednesday (December 3), comedian Ruby was voted off after landing in the bottom two with actress Lisa Riley. Her exit from the show came as a surprise to both her campmates and viewers.
However, according to former I’m A Celebrity star Gillian, who first appeared on the show in 2010, Tom is going to miss her the most.
I’m A Celebrity star Tom Read Wilson ‘might struggle’ without Ruby
While speaking to TV Guide on behalf of Paddy Power, Gillian stated that “Tom might struggle now that Ruby Wax has gone”.
“I don’t think that any of them are going to struggle in terms of doing the trials, and they’re all capable, but I think the biggest hole will be that Ruby’s gone because she was such a good figure in camp,” she continued.
Gillian described Ruby as “such a strong, iconic personality”, noting that “any show is going to feel her absence”.
“She’s fun, she’s intelligent, and she really gave the camp some sparkle.” To describe her experience in one word, Ruby said it would be “holy”.
‘Everyone who goes is a loss’
As for why she was voted off so early in the show, Gillian insisted it’s likely because “her fan base probably doesn’t download apps”.
