Jacqueline Jossa has been praised by I'm A Celeb fans after the latest Bushtucker Trial.

I’m A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here! is back for another year which means we get to watch a bunch of celebs try to survive in the Australian Jungle.

And the celebs might have only been on our screens for a few days, but they were already forced to take on a pretty disgusting challenge.

Yep, the campmates at Snake Rock were given their first group trial to get stuck into before they joined everyone else at Main Camp.
