As of tonight, April 8, 2026, no celebrity has been voted off “I’m a Celebrity: South Africa” yet, as the high-stakes all-star series only premiered on Monday, April 6, 2026. Because the first few episodes of the South African season typically focus on camp introductions and “Savannah Scramble” challenges for immunity, the first official exit is expected to occur toward the end of the first week or early in the second week of the competition. This series features “legendary” returning campmates such as Harry Redknapp, Scarlett Moffatt, and Gemma Collins, all competing for the title of “Ultimate Legend 2026” in a pre-recorded format where eliminations are decided by head-to-head trials rather than a public vote.
The 2026 All-Star Cast Lineup
The second South African spin-off features a mix of former winners and iconic contestants who originally withdrew or were eliminated early.
The Returning Winners
Three former Kings and Queens of the Jungle have returned to defend their reputation. Harry Redknapp (2018 winner), Scarlett Moffatt (2016 winner), and the surprise late entry Gino D’Acampo (2009 winner) represent the highest tier of competition in the 2026 camp.
The Redemption Seekers
The most talked-about returnee is Gemma Collins, who famously withdrew after just 72 hours in 2014. Alongside her, Craig Charles—who also withdrew in 2014 due to personal circumstances—is back to complete a full stint in the bush, adding a layer of emotional stakes to the 2026 season.
Opening Week Trials and Results
The first few days of the 2026 series have been dominated by the “Terrifying Trenches” and the “Savannah Scramble” challenges.
The Savannah Scramble
In the premiere episode, celebrities were split into two teams to compete for the “best” camp. Team Alpha, led by Adam Thomas, secured a victory in the “Stars in a Box” trial, granting them access to the more comfortable camp facilities and initial immunity from the first “Survival Trial.”
The First Survival Trial
Unlike the main Australian series, the all-star format uses Survival Trials to determine who leaves. In the coming days, the celebrities with the fewest stars or those nominated by their campmates will face off in a head-to-head elimination.
