Jimmy Bullard was the first contestant to bow out of the I’m a Celebrity jungle on Monday night, having been voted off by the public in what many saw as a shock elimination.
Part of the losing group in the team trials, Jimmy was sent home while his fellow Wombats, Melanie Sykes, Tinchy Stryder and Carl Fogarty (Foggy) live to see another day in the Australian jungle.
Jimmy had previously been listed as favourite to win by a number of bookies and at one stage was listed as the 2/1 favourite to scoop the crown of king of the jungle.
However, it seems his popularity with the public fell quickly after his night of ‘banter’ with Jake Quickenden, with many of the show’s fans taking to twitter after the row stating that Jimmy had “come across as a bully last night.”

It’s been a tough week for the Wombats who lost a number of tasks and were stuck eating rice and beans for a number of days while their opposing team feasted on a number of different dishes.
