Influencer Skye Wheatley has been crowned the winner of I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! Australia 2024.
And just like that, the tenth season of the celeb jungle series has drawn to a close, but not without some major fanfare for the newest Queen of the Jungle, who beat out TV presenter Tristan MacManus and everyone’s fave himbo, Love Island Australia 2022‘s Callum Hole, in an “incredibly close” public vote.
Skye, who came in third place during Big Brother 2014, admitted she was “shocked” by her win.
“I feel absolutely blessed to have had this opportunity and to go through the things I went through with these boys [Tristan and Callum],” she confessed after being crowned.
“I’ve never won anything.”
And now, she’s won the hearts of I’m a Celebrity viewers and a whopping $100,000 for her nominated charity, Bully Zero.
The organisation is Australia’s leading bullying prevention charity. It works to deliver educational programs to young people, parents, teachers and employees to help prevent bullying.
Bully Zero thanks Skye Wheatley following I’m a Celebrity 2024 win
Following Skye’s I’m a Celebrity win, Bully Zero issued a statement on its Instagram page, saying the team is “so incredibly humbled” that the reality star chose to support the organisation.
“We have been truly inspired by her dedication, grit and resilience during her time in the jungle, but most of all by her kindness, compassion and a dream that matches our own, of a world free from bullying,” they penned.
“Skye Wheatley, you have an absolute heart of gold, and we are forever indebted.”
According to hosts Robert Irwin and Julia Morris, this season of I’m a Celebrity saw the most votes from the Australian public to save their favourite celebrities in the show’s history.
And that makes the win all that much sweeter. Congratulations, Skye!
