I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here! viewers were left worried for one contestant on Tuesday night.

During the latest episode, with Tulisa Contostavlos in charge of the washing up for camp, Barry McGuigan offered to help out by carrying some pots and pans down to the creek for her. But with Barry, 63, speeding ahead, when Tulisa, 36, reached the washing spot down at the stream, Barry was nowhere in sight.

Tulisa was left stunned as she looked around and shouted: "Barry…Barry? Where’s he gone?" Following a long time of calling for Barry continuously, finally he appeared further up the jungle greenery looking confused, as Tulisa laughed and said: "You’ve gone too far!"

Reflecting in the Bush Telegraph, Tulisa said: "I think until Barry learns his way around the jungle a bit more, I’ll be keeping an eye on him because we don’t want to lose him out there, it’s a dangerous place."

After watching the moment, viewers were left concerned Barry had quit the show due to going missing briefly. Taking to Twitter, now X, one person said: "Do not tell me Barry has left… #ImACeleb", a different account wrote: "I hope Barry hasn’t left #ImACeleb", another person put: "BARRY BETTER STILL BE IN THE JUNGLE OMG!!!! #ImACeleb" while a different account added: "I hope barry hasn't left #ImACeleb."

However, thankfully, Barry hadn't left the show and instead had just walked further up ahead from Tulisa. Taking to Twitter, now X, viewers were left relieved Barry was still in the jungle. One person joked: "Barry trying to leave or what? #imaceleb" with laughing emojis, another wrote: "Thank god Barry didn’t leave I thought he left my heart dropped #ImACeleb" while a different account added: "Barry got lost, bless him haha. #ImACeleb."
