The drama surrounding I’m A Celebrity South Africa has reached a fever pitch, with fans expressing their fury after Scarlett Moffatt was eliminated just before the grand finale. Scarlett, who had been a fan favorite throughout the competition, was voted out during the tense “Keep Your Eye on the Ball” trial, where contestants had to count the different colored balls that moved through clear pipes while dealing with critters dropping from above.
Despite her best efforts, Scarlett, who was 74 off the correct number, was sent home, leaving her gutted. She was the last woman standing, and her exit has sparked an uproar among viewers, many of whom had backed her as the winner.
“I’m absolutely gutted, I felt so close,” Scarlett shared after her departure. “I was the last girl standing.” Her exit paved the way for an all-male finale, with Harry Redknapp, Mo Farah, Adam Thomas, and Craig Charles now vying for the crown.

She was my winner!” Some even felt that the final trial was unfair, with one viewer claiming, “Scarlett was robbed. No one is good at maths. What a bad last trial!”
