"Already like Melvin, Danny, GK and Tulisa ," wrote another. Despite the pleads from viewers, Tulisa opted to team up with Coronation Street star Alan Halsall for the first trial - which saw campmates race in their pairs to win exemption for the first trial.
After Alan and Tulisa teamed up, viewers were devastated, with one sharing: "we were robbed of tulisa and Gk Barry Duo. #imacelebrity #ImACeleb," as another said: "I did not expect Tulisa to pick Alan. thought she’d go for GK #imaceleb".
There could be some more unlikely friendships made in the jungle, with campmate Danny Jones recently recounting a wild night he had with Wayne Rooney, the husband of his campmate Coleen Rooney, at an after party at Soccer Aid during Covid in September 2020.
Speaking on the Sappenin' Podcast with Sean Smith, Danny revealed how he, Dermot Kennedy and James Bay were asked by ex-footballer Robbie Keane to bring their guitars - which turned into an invitation for Rooney to showcase his musical skills. The singers ended up jamming Mustang Sally with the former England captain.
Danny said: "I was lucky enough to play the one in Covid times. In normal every day times it's a party, everyone brings their loved one along. This time, obviously you couldn't do that.

"Then out of nowhere, Wayne Rooney wants to do a tune. I say 'Rooney, what do you want to sing? I've heard you like a bit of Mustang Sally.' So there's me, James Bay and Dermot Kennedy jamming Mustang Sally with Wayne Rooney. He's got a decent enough voice but he's got this Scouse twang to it."
Danny described the experience as 'one of the highlights of my life'.
