Maura Higgins Shines in Hilarious and Fearless I’m A Celeb Moment

Coleen Rooney’s journey toward becoming Queen of the Jungle hit a bump on tonight’s episode of I’m A Celebrity as Maura Higgins took center stage with a standout Bushtucker Trial performance. The Love Island star dominated screentime, winning over fans with her grit, humor, and determination.

The episode began with the Fright Bus challenge, which saw Maura voted to face the second trial of the night, aptly titled Fright at the End of the Tunnel. The 34-year-old confronted her deep fear of spiders as she navigated a nerve-wracking underground tunnel to retrieve secret code words. These had to be relayed to her campmate, Loose Women’s Jane Moore, who was also navigating her own tunnel, reported by Liverpool Echo.

Chaos ensued as communication between the two broke down, leading to one of the funniest moments of the season. Jane, improvising the phonetic alphabet, shouted, “A is for ae,” leaving viewers in hysterics. Despite the confusion, the duo secured six stars for their campmates.

Maura, visibly shaken but triumphant, broke into tears after the trial, her raw emotions earning her admiration from fans. Social media was ablaze with praise for her resilience and authenticity. Many viewers now see Maura as their pick to win the competition.

Don posted, “A for Ae! Maura has to win.” Dagi echoed, “A for ae. Maura must win.” Loni added, “Maura’s screaming was different and not annoying because it was clearly genuine. She was giving it her best shot—gal was going down with those spiders before shouting, ‘Get me out of here,’ and everyone knew it.”

Other fans highlighted Maura’s bravery. Leanne said, “Almost cried watching Maura face those spiders. You could see the sheer terror and how much she was shaking, and she still did it! Incredible effort.” Jess agreed, “Maura was so traumatized but pushed through. Need her to win.”

Some viewers even declared her the frontrunner for the crown. Morgan commented, “Maura absolutely smashed that trial, she’s slowly becoming my queen of the jungle.” Ben concluded, “Honestly think Maura cemented being Queen of the Jungle after today’s episode.”

While Coleen Rooney’s detective skills have charmed fans throughout the season, Maura’s bravery and comedic moments in tonight’s trial may have tipped the scales in her favor. With more trials and drama to come, the competition for Queen of the Jungle is heating up.
