Who was the I’m A Celebrity 2023 winner?

On Sunday evening, Sam was crowned King of the Jungle, beating heavyweight boxer Tony Bellew to the title.

The ITV final was watched by a peak audience of 7.6million and the series has reached over 25million viewers including across streaming platform ITVX.

Sam was congratulated by his co-stars including This Morning host Josie Gibson who presented him with the floral jungle crown.

Sharing a lengthy Instagram post, Sam admitted ‘there aren’t quite words to describe how grateful he is,’ and he’s been ‘overwhelmed’ by support from viewers.

The reality star added that he was ‘a bit nervous’ when he first entered the jungle as he feared he’d ‘make himself look like a d**k.’

Sam won the 2023 King of the Jungle title on Sunday by a landslide, voting figures revealed.

He came out on top with over 50 per cent of the votes, beating boxer Tony Bellew, 41, who finished in second place and Nigel, who came in third.

ITV released two sets of figures which showed the percentages for the top three before voting was frozen and later re-opened for the final two.

In the first round Sam raked in 43.35 per cent which was miles out in front of Tony who got 30.87 per cent and Nigel with 25.78 per cent.

Then in the final vote Sam’s lead only increased as he bagged 56.64 per cent of viewers votes beating Tony’s 43.36 per cent by a whopping 13 per cent.

Sam had been the bookies favourite to win for the past couple of weeks after proving popular with ITV viewers.

Asked what he had to say to those who had voted for him, he tearfully said: ‘I’m so grateful, thank you so much. I’ve dreamed of doing this show for years and years and you’ve made a boy’s dream come true.’
