At the end of the trial, Grace failed to get a canoe and her and Jane were forced to walk to camp.
She joked: ‘I think we stayed cool, calm and collected’.

Grace rose to fame by making TikToks as a student at Nottingham University during the pandemic in which she shared funny anecdotes from her life.
Now an internet sensation, Grace boasts 4.5million followers across all social media platforms and is the host of the podcast, Saving Grace.
But ahead of entering the Jungle, she said: ‘I’m not doing this show for fun… It’s more for future jobs that I can get with ITV.
‘I’m just here to have a relaxing couple of weeks, sit in a hammock and maybe eat a few maggots. I’m not here to get stressed.

‘I feel like it’s just not my nature. Well, don’t get me wrong, I moan about everything. I’m a glᴀss half empty kind of gal. But just not pulling your weight. That’s fine, you know, I’m not really bothered.’
Calling herself ‘the perfect match’ for ITV, the feeling is clearly mutual from the network as at 25, she’s the youngest panellist on Loose Women.
Speaking about her reasons for appearing on I’m A Celeb, she said: ‘Obviously, I’ve got the Gen Z audience down but I think it would be nice to have a different audience.
‘The main reason for me doing it like I’d love to do, presenting and stuff. So I think this is a good step forward.’
When asked why she was aligning herself with ITV, Grace said: ‘I just feel like it fits me. And it’s also a lot of my audience. Like, if you ask a lot of people my age, it’s always like, Oh, we’re watching ITV, so I feel like it’s just the perfect match.’
While a student at Nottingham University, Grace rose to fame after making comical but ‘honest’ TikToks about her life during the COVID-19 pandemic.
But she said: ‘I’m more toned down than I am on my TikTok. I’m actually quite shy, so that actually could be really disappointing for people to see.
‘And I don’t sound like a London cab driver all the time.’
