Ant and Dec make final major announcement on I'm A Celeb set before catching flight back from Australia
I’m A Celebrity Get Me Out of Here ended on Sunday but hosts Ant McPartlin and Declan Donnelly had one last thing to announce before jetting back to the UK after the show ended. It comes after the crowning of McFly star Danny Jones as the latest Jungle King on Sunday, capping off a series that saw its fair share of drama with flooding at the campsite.
Teaming up with finance giant ICAP, Ant and Dec unfortunately missed out on the charity day that was held in the Asia Pacific to raise money for various charities around the world. Although they were absent from the day, the hosts, both 49, made one final announcement in the jungle, about how much their charity has helped the public.
In a joint video, they said: “Hello everyone at ICAP. Happy ICAP Charity Day everybody. We are so sorry we can't be with you again this year. Pesky I’m A Celebrity means we are currently travelling home from Australia. But we do know what a very special day of fundraising for good causes it is so good luck to everybody that's involved today.

"Even though we can't be there, you are still generously raising funds for our making it in the media programme with the King's Trust. As you know the King’s Trust has been a charity close to our hearts for a very long time due to its amazing work with young people and our ‘Making It In Media’ course is there to help young people build skills and work in the media industry.
"We are incredibly proud to say that ‘Making It In Media’ has now helped more than 170 people since it launched with the trust in 2021.” Concluding, they said: “And with your help, we are going to help many more young people build their confidence and skills. So thank you again for everything that you do. Good luck icap. See you soon!”
This comes after the pair confirmed the future of the iconic reality TV show. Ant and Dec, appeared on I'm A Celeb spin-off show Unpacked and, as host Joel Dommett, 39, asked them if they had any last words, Dec said: "We will see you next year for series 25."
Ant echoed his partners enthusiasm, exclaiming "yay," while Dec turned to tease potential participants directly through the camera: "Celebrities out there, we are coming for you," he warned with a point for emphasis.
Joel chuckled along, encouraging the live audience in the studio to give a round of applause for Ant and Dec.
