In Wednesday’s episode, fans saw Dean confess all to campmate Jane Moore.
After revealing he had teabags, Dean told the Loose Women star: “So if I pour you a cup of tea just, would you prefer it tonight or tomorrow?
“Would you prefer it in the morning?”
Taking to X – formerly Twitter – viewers reckon they’ve caught on to Dean’s intentions.
One fan wrote: “Dean pretending to keep his teabags secret because he knows jungle smugglers get more airtime.”
Another added: “Not Dean whispering about tea bags like he hasn’t got a mic and 10 cameras on him.”
A third commented: “Dean can’t keep his mouth shut about his teabags.”
While a fourth remarked: “Can’t believe Dean admitted he brought teabags into the camp when there are cameras everywhere and he’s wearing a microphone.”
Yet another penned:” Dean’s played a blinder here.
“Come on, it’s not about keeping the teabags hidden, it’s about being a lead character and this is another perfect move.”
The camp soon faced severe consequences, however, for using the teabags.
Radio 1 DJ Melvin Odoom completed a challenge to win 10 cupcakes – one for each celebrity.
He was devastated afterwards as half the cupcakes were taken away as punishment.
Campmates received orders to bring any remaining contraband to the Bush Telegraph – although another revelation came to light.
I’m A Celeb – ‘Teagate’ and contraband drama
By Conor O’Brien
I’m A Celebrity is no stranger to a camp scandal – and this year’s seems to be “Teagate”.
Radio 1 DJ Dean McCullough smuggled teabags into camp although it hasn’t taken long for chiefs to realise this.
The teabags were brazenly used in plain sight, with little to no attempt to hide their presence.
After Ant and Dec warned repercussions were on the way, the campmates faced severe consequences.
Melvin Odoom won 10 cupcakes in a challenge – only for five to be taken away as punishment for contraband.
Later, it also transpired Melvin slyly gave Tulisa seasoning for the first night’s dinner.
Tulisa revealed someone subtly gave her seasoning to use in the first night’s dinner.
As the N-Dubz singer handed it in – having never used the seasoning – Melvin admitted to having brought it.
What drama will unfold next in camp?
I’m A Celebrity continues on ITV1 and ITVX.
