The final three on I’m A Celebrity South Africa have officially been revealed after Craig Charles was eliminated during tonight’s live final (Friday, April 24).
Adam Thomas, Mo Farah, Harry Redknapp and Craig had all made it through to the last four. However, only three could continue, with one star missing out just short of the final stage.

Friday night’s live show, broadcast from London, saw the remaining four celebrities take to the stage as they awaited the public vote.
They were joined by their fellow campmates in the audience, including Jimmy Bullard, David Haye and Gemma Collins, as the tension built ahead of the first result.
Viewers had been voting for their favourite since the previous night, and early into the programme, the celebrity with the fewest votes was revealed and sent home.
That person was Craig.
