Seann Walsh was gobsmacked after learning he had become the first campmate axed from Iām A Celebrityā¦ South Africa. After losing last nightās eating trial to Jimmy Bullard, Harry Redknapp was forced to choose a member of team Lion to send home.
Walking back into camp, he told his teammates: āUnfortunately, because we lost, theyāve given me the bad task of having to choose one of our fantastic campmates here to go home.ā A baffled Seann asked: āOne of us is about to go home?ā
When asked by Ashley if he was being serious, Harry confirmed: āNot a wind up. I wish it was and itās been so difficult.ā
Harry named each of his campmates apart from Seann, saying they had all been great so far.
The former football manager even got his teammateās name wrong when it came to revealing who he had chosen.
Harry continued: āItās not been easy but Iāve come down in the end, Stuart. Iāve had to make a decision and I chose you.ā
A gutted Seann responded: āOh, fair enough.ā
He added: āYeah, no, thatās absolutely fair enough. That mustāve been tough. Donāt worry, Harry.ā
Attempting to soften the blow, Harry responded: āI love you, youāve been great. But someone had to go.ā
Seann admitted the upside to leaving was being able to reunite with his family.

David Haye agreed it was the right decision, claiming it was because Seann had failed to win a challenge.
Itās safe to say viewers werenāt pleased with Harryās decision as one wrote on X: āLove Harry but he made the wrong decision. I knew heād get rid of Seann, so disappointed!ā
Another agreed: āStop no I canāt believe Seann is 1st out of @imacelebrity.ā
A third echoed: āāSeann is the weakest out of the groupā why does it always have to be about power David. Iām so upset that Seann has gone, he was and always has been my fave! Get David out next I beg!!ā

A fourth posted: āSeann may not have been the best at trials but he was in the elite savannah scrub which was just pure laughs, wholesomeness, entertainment and vibes.ā
Another viewer added: āI knew Harry would pick Seann. Keep the athletes and keep Ashley and Scarlett together. It was obvious Seann was the one going. Gutted! He was brilliant and deserved to be in longer.ā
