I'm A Celebrity winner announced: 'Absolute champion'

I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! Australia wrapped up on Sunday night with former star netballer Liz Ellis walking away with the crown, with boxer Harry Garside coming in second place.

As the new Queen of the Jungle, Liz walks away with $100,000 for her chosen charity, Share The Dignity.

The sports star shared her surprise at winning the brutal competition, joking, "Oh my gosh. Finally, I'm a queen!"

Host Julia Morris revealed that voting for Liz and Harry was "extremely close".

"My kids never saw me play netball," Liz shared earlier in the show. "I want to show them what Mummy can do. I want to show them I can be strong, face danger and still work through."
