I’m A Celebrity Coming Out Show Returns: Everything You Need to Know

What Is the I’m A Celebrity Coming Out Show?

The ‘Coming Out Show’ is a beloved follow-up episode of I’m A Celebrity which follows each star on their journey out of the jungle, filming the moments they are reunited with loved ones, they tuck into their favourite meal and are greeted with a big double bed. This annual special has become a cherished tradition for fans of the hit ITV series, providing exclusive behind-the-scenes access and emotional reunions that viewers don’t see during the main show.

When Does It Air?

I’m A Celebrity’s ‘Coming Out Show’ will air on ITV1 on Friday, December 13, 2024. The episode will run from 9.00pm until 10.05pm, and can also be watched on catch-up on ITVX. The timing allows fans one final chance to catch up with their favourite campmates following Danny Jones’s victory as King of the Jungle in the 2024 series.

What to Expect from This Year’s Episode

We’ll see how each campmate left the jungle, how they celebrated their first night free of Bushtucker, what they ate and how quickly they jumped into a nice soft bed. We often get to see backstage interviews with Ant and Dec, the celebrity’s families and the stars of the show, who take time to reflect on their achievements in the jungle.

The show then sees the whole cast reunite for a final evening before returning home, officially ending another series. However, this year’s reunion will notably be missing one campmate. It was revealed that Tulisa had flown home to the UK ahead of the final, and she confirmed that she would not be able to join her campmates for the final, but did not reveal the reasoning behind her sudden departure.

Why It Matters to Viewers

The Coming Out Show offers fans closure after weeks of watching celebrities face Bushtucker Trials and jungle challenges. It’s a chance for the celebrities to finally find out what viewers and their fellow campmates have been saying about them before coming back together in the ‘real world’ for one last party. For the 2024 contestants, who formed particularly strong bonds throughout the series, this reunion episode promises heartwarming moments as they transition from jungle life back to luxury and reconnect with loved ones they’ve missed during their time Down Under.
