She could have caused ‘sweet-gate’ in the jungle and now one of Ruby Wax’s I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here campmates has revealed that’s not the only think she’s stolen while in camp.
It’s been revealed that the comedian has been secretly pinching other campmates’ belongings in the jungle, according to Eddie Kadi, who became the second celebrity to leave the ITV reality show on Sunday night (November 30).
The 42-year skydived into the jungle and, despite lasting 16 days, said it felt like he had been there “for a year” as he spoke to Ant McPartlin and Dec Donnelly in his exit interview.
Eddie said: “I’m happy and sad at the same time. What a great time. I’ve had such an incredible time. “I’ve made amazing friends. I faced some fears, and to be fair, it still feels very surreal to be on such an iconic show. But most of the time you forgot it was a show.”
Now, he’s revealed that fellow campmate Ruby “doesn’t care” and has been taking items such as socks, boots and water bottles. Speaking to the Mirror, Eddie said: “Vogue has lost all her socks and Ruby has taken them. She showed me, she’s like, ‘I got her socks. So what? I like it’.
“She took Vogue’s boots, I believe, at one stage. You could tell because of the way she was walking. I was like, ‘Ruby, clearly one of your boots is too long. She’s like, ‘Just keep walking. Your job is to just keep walking’. So I think it might be her because she’s got so much in her bags. She’s going to leave with everything.

“She’s leaving with the jungle.” He added: “She doesn’t care….Ruby can do whatever she wants.”
Speaking after becoming the second contestant to leave the jungle, following former footballer Alex Scott, he said he also clocked her with Vogue’s water bottle. He admits: “We were by the tree house having a conversation. She started drinking from a water bottle – it said ‘Vogue’
“I said, ‘Ruby, that’s Vogue’s bottle’. She said, ‘Oh, dear. Oh, well, come on. She’ll be fine. She won’t die’. But Ruby in there is like the Queen Mother. Ruby can do whatever she wants because we all want to look after her. But we’re all falling for the trick that she is a youth at the same time. She doesn’t want to be considered elderly. She’s like, ‘I’m with you guys’.”
He also suspects that she may have smuggled in some contraband. But Eddie said: “Yeah, but I wasn’t brave enough to say in front of her face, clearly. I’m trying to survive.”
He even wondered if she had been hiding it on her person. He added: “If you watch how Ruby’s dressed in the camp, I looked at her one time… she’s got one of her trousers long, the other, she tucks it in her sock. So she looks like an Asbo grandma. Ruby looks like the grandma you go shoplifting with.”
