A Heartfelt Scene That Moved the Camp

I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here viewers have rushed online to praise Lisa Riley after an emotional moment in the early days of the 2025 series. The Emmerdale actress arrived in camp on Sunday, November 16, as part of the ten-celebrity lineup. By the second episode, she had already won the trust of viewers and her fellow stars.

On Monday night, Lisa sat with Jack Osbourne as he opened up about the recent death of his father, rock legend Ozzy Osbourne. Jack, 40, grew tearful as he spoke about how sudden the loss felt. “We knew he was sick for a while but it still came as a shock,” he explained. “It was the ultimate mic drop. He did a massive gig and then said, ‘I’m done.’”

Lisa listened closely and comforted him. She shared her own experience of losing her mother, Cath, to breast cancer in 2012. The quiet exchange struck a chord with viewers, who felt the pair’s bond deepen in real time.

Viewers Praise Lisa’s Warmth

Fans quickly took to social media to applaud Lisa’s kindness. Their comments came fast, and many praised her sincere approach to the sensitive moment.

“You can just tell Lisa Riley is a gorgeous person,” one viewer wrote. Another added: “She has such a pure sincerity about her. I love her.”

Others highlighted how naturally she stepped into the role of caretaker. “Lisa Riley is the mother bear of the camp,” a fan posted. Another viewer echoed this sentiment, calling her “the camp’s mum and an absolute sweetheart.”

Many people were moved by the way Lisa connected to Jack’s grief. One fan wrote: “Her line, ‘My mum is up there as well, so I get it,’ was such a tender way of showing empathy.”

A Jungle First Impresses Fans

The praise did not stop with the emotional moment. Shortly after Lisa arrived, Ant and Dec pointed out something unusual about her entry trial. When the crew placed a box over her head and filled it with snakes, she responded by saying “thank you.”

The presenters joked on X (formerly Twitter): “Lisa Riley must be the first ever celeb to say thank you during a trial.” Viewers loved the clip and said it captured her warm, polite nature.

A Strong Start for a New Fan Favourite

It is only the beginning of the 2025 series, yet Lisa has already made a strong impression. Her compassion, humour, and openness have made her a stand-out campmate. Viewers are already calling for her to reach the final as the show continues.

If she keeps connecting with people the way she has in these early episodes, Lisa Riley may become one of the most memorable contestants of the season.
