Jack Osbourne has entered the I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! jungle just months after his dad rock legend Ozzy Osbourne died
A former I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! star has said he thinks Jack Osbourne shouldn’t be in the jungle this year. Jack is one of the current contestants on the show and has taken on the challenge just months after his dad Ozzy Osbourne died.
Dean McCullough, who was on the show last year, has said that it is too soon for Jack to be going on the series. The Radio 1 DJ said that the pressure of being in such an intense environment could be too much for the celeb.
Ozzy Osbourne died of heart failure at his Buckinghamshire home on July 22 at the age of 76. Speaking about the ITV show, Dean said that the jungle can be a “volatile” place.

He said: “I think Jack’s going to struggle. Just looking at him, you can tell in his eyes that he’s… I don’t think he should be in there, if I’m being really honest. It’s too soon.
“His dad only died in July, and it’s such a volatile, revealing, nerve-wracking place. There is nothing comfortable about the jungle. And I just feel like he needs a bit of support.”
However, Dean has also said that show producers are on hand to support Jack if he needs it. Speaking at the ZYN Rolling Stone UK Awards 2025: “I know the team really well. We had a rigorous test before we went in there.
“I think he’s being well looked after, but if I were in there with him, I would be keeping an eye on him.” This comes as Jack hasn’t been seeing eye to eye with Kelly Brook in camp.
Their clash over cooking and food preparation appeared to have intensified after the late arrivals of Vogue Williams and Tom Read Wilson shake things up.
Recent episodes have seen Kelly and Jack butt heads over cooking, leading some to wonder if this will be the first feud of the 2025 series.
The pair had an awkward moment for the first time when Kelly was peeling potatoes and Jack told her she was taking too much off and using the wrong knife.
Fans have wondered if the two will end up bickering once again as late the arrivals Vogue and Tom have assigned the campmates official roles and duties. This includes Kelly being in the kitchen and Jack cleaning the toilets.
Kelly later apologised to Jack and explained that she got involved with the cooking because “I just want to help”. Jack then admitted that “maybe I am doing too much” and he gave cooking duties to Alex Scott and Shona McGarty.
So far the campmates have been taking part in Bushtucker trials, will Jack set to take one on tonight. Kelly has also tried her hand at trials, winning four stars in last night’s challenge.
