I’M A Celeb fans rejoiced tonight when Coleen Rooney used her detective skills to sniff out a huge camp secret.
The mum gained the nickname Wagatha Christie for her ingenious social media sting to uncover the source of leaked stories about her.

She entered I’m A Celebrity last week, and is the highest-paid contestant in the show’s history.
Over the past three days I’m A Celeb late arrivals, Maura Higgins and Reverend Richard Coles have been sleeping on the floor in the supposedly disgusting Jungle Junkyard.
The Love Island star, 33, and priest, 62, met most of their co-stars for the first time in Friday’s episode, including Coleen, Danny Jones, GK Barry, Dean McCullough, Tulisa Contostavlos, Alan Halsall, and Oti Mabuse.
But Coleen, wife of football legend Wayne Rooney, soon picked up on the fact that something was off.
Maura and Richard, along with Dean – who had moved into Jungle Junkyard – were in fact lying about the conditions in their separate camp.
After spending a few minutes in their company, Coleen returned with her campmates, some of whom haven’t washed since landing in the jungle, and said: “To be honest they looked better than I’d seen them yesterday. Maura smelled nice.
“They got this look, I just think they’re not telling us the truth.
“I don’t know, they’ve just got this content look. There’s something going on.”
She added in the Bush Telegraph: “I came out of there not convinced that they were living in those conditions.”
The moment sent viewers into meltdown, with one posting a video of footballer Thierry Henry celebrating a goal for Arsenal.
They captioned it on X: “Coleen Rooney coming out of retirement to put her Wagatha Christie hat back on to rustle the luxury Junkyard camp mates.”
Another said: “It’s lucky for Jack the Ripper that Coleen wasn’t around back then!”
A third raved: “Of course Coleen will be first to crack the case. Wagatha’s back!”
One more echoed: “Not Coleen going full on Wagatha Christie and sussing out their lie ahah!”
Maura and Richard’s camp, the original Snake Rock, has been transformed into the Jungle Junkyard.
The pair have been given cosy beds, a fridge full of snacks, a sofa and a two-ring hob for cooking.
It’s also covered from the storm that has been battering the camp.
Meanwhile, the main camp have been sleeping in the rain and on rations of rice and beans, after Dean failed to bring back many stars from his Bushtucker Trials.
