I’m A Celebrity star Barry McGuigan has suffered a major switch up when it comes to his jungle plans. The star was expected to face the next Bushtucker trial… Tanks of Torture.
Despite putting himself forward for the challenge, it seems circumstances have changed.

I’m A Celebrity star Barry McGuigan replaced in latest trial
Likely to the disappointment of viewers, who hadn’t seen him in a trial since his first one, Mausoleum of Misery, with Danny Jones, Barry has been benched.
During Thursday night’s episode (November 28) Ant and Dec headed into camp to inform the stars about the latest challenge. The camp mates then decided on Barry and Oti Mabuse as the latest members to brave the trial.
Later on that evening, on spin-off show Unpacked, Joel Dommett revealed that it would instead be Oti and Melvin Odoom facing the trial.
He didn’t explain why Barry was now out of the running.
Social media users have since speculated over why he won’t be joining in, with some concerned that he may have quit the show or could be dealing with a medical issue.
One commented on Instagram: “Feel sorry for Barry. He hasn’t done a trial.”
