SPOILER ALERT! DO NOT READ IF YOU HAVEN'T WATCHED SUNDAY NIGHT'S I'M A CELEBRITY... GET ME OUT OF HERE!

Scarlett Moffatt has been crowned Queen of the Jungle! The Gogglebox star came first in the reality TV show I'm a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! while fellow camp mate Joel Dommett was runner up in second place and Adam Thomas in third.

Scarlett burst into tears following the announcement. Speaking about winning the show, she said: "I can't believe it, oh my God! Never did I ever think this would happen, ever!"

The trio enjoyed dinner on their last night in camp

The trio celebrated their success at making it to the final of the show after Sam Quek departed the jungle on Saturday night, with Adam joking: "What is going on I’m in the final of I’m a Celebrity, I demand a recount, I don’t do anything, all I do is sleep!" Scarlett joined in as the group hugged, saying: "It hasn't sunk in!" Joel also spoke about how he felt "special" to be in the final three. "The list of people who came into here is insane," he explained. "Danny Baker, Larry Lamb, Carol Vorderman and the guy from Homes Under the Hammer. My mum always told me I was special, but this is the first time I have ever felt special."

Scarlett won five stars in her final challenge

Of course, making it to the final had it's downside, as Adam discovered as he took on the 'Fill your Face' Bush Tucker trial so he could win a course for dinner that evening. The star had a clear helmet placed over his head which was slowly filled with critters including mealworms, crickets and cockroaches. Meanwhile Joel took part in the 'Bushtucker bonanza' where he had to eat a dead hawk moth, fish eyes and other less than pleasant items. Finally, Scarlett took on the 'Cavern of claws' where she had to lie in a claustrophobic space to collect stars while being joined by cockroaches, crickets and rats.
