“Guys, let’s be honest, don’t we have other topics?” What Djamila Rowe (55) asked himself, some viewers may have thought as well. Because in addition to mail from home, the main focus in the jungle camp was on the big Bolognese lie, which developed into a real scandal among the candidates. Meanwhile, Cecilia Asoro (26) had to say goodbye at the end of the show.

Claudia Effenberg (57) and Rowe recently claimed after a treasure hunt that they had refused spaghetti bolognese in exchange for food for the campers. That was not only fictitious, but also a dig at Cosimo Citiolo (41) and Gigi Birofio (23), who had previously knocked out four eggs for the team in a comparable situation and ate a pizza for two. Instead of clarifying the whole thing soon, Effenberg remained silent and was even ennobled as “selfless” by Papis Loveday (46). Rowe had at least confessed everything to Citiolo and the moderator duo Sonja Zietlow (54) and Jan Köppen (39) finally got the ball rolling. Suddenly everyone knew.

“Maybe that wasn’t okay with us,” said Effenberg now and she would also like to apologize. The two just wanted to “do a gag”, maybe it was “a stupid idea”. It certainly was, like most of the celebrities from “I’m a Celebrity – Get Me Out of Here!” might think. Jolina Mennen (30) just saw it as a “bad joke” and Asoro wasn’t exactly impressed either.

The Bolognese story was “a provocation” for him, Birofio later confronted Effenberg, who showed little insight and continued to harp on about the pizza. He wanted the two to avoid each other for the most part in the camp, which the designer apparently couldn’t get over. In addition to Birofio, who compared his fellow candidate to a teacher “who you just hate”, Loveday in particular probably felt betrayed. “That was right snake,” he judged. Effenberg now hopes that the viewers will choose her or Birofio. A wish that they should not fulfill for the time being.

Once again, numerous tears fell in other scenes. Mennen, who put a lot of effort into the jungle test “Der Jaulwurf”, was able to secure a solid five out of eight possible stars in a small, dark tunnel system. “I’m just proud of myself,” the YouTuber became emotional. And with mail from home, it was of course inevitable that hardly a dry eye would remain.

“Who’s in the mood to cry a little?” Birofio announced when distributing letters from family members and friends. Lucas Cordalis (55) received a few lovely lines from his wife Daniela Katzenberger (36). She and daughter Sophia are proud of the “Greek power peppers”. The little ones’ eyes always lit up when they saw their dad on TV. Sophia is “the most important thing in the world” for him and he thinks of her every day, explained the visibly touched singer.

At the end of the current episode, Cecilia Asoro’s last minutes had come. What will the reality star treat herself to after moving out? It probably won’t be a plate of spaghetti Bolognese, and Asoro should be able to do without that for the time being.

The next episode of “I’m a Celebrity – Get Me Out of Here!” RTL (also on RTL ) shows with seven campers on Thursday from 10:15 p.m. The finale of the current season will then rise on January 29th.
