The phone lines were once again running hot for the remaining camp finalists in the Australian jungle. In the final, Leyla Lahuoar, Lucy Diakovska and Twenty4tim fought for the viewers’ votes. Lucy Diakovska it was ultimately the one the popular RTL format “I’m a star – get me out of here!” could decide for themselves.
Since three candidates had to compete against each other in the final decision-making round, things became particularly exciting in the Australian rainforest. They shared the food at the jungle dinner like brothers; only one can take the crown with them to Germany. Now the jungle queen for 2024 has been determined. Lucy Diakovska was able to fight for the crown in the grand finale of “I’m a Celebrity – Get Me Out of Here!” prevail against your competitors.

With her red curly mane and her warm and loving nature Lucy Diakovska, 47, is anything but a “no angel” for the community in the Australian rainforest. The former “Popstars” singer mastered numerous challenges without complaining a single word. In the camp, the 47-year-old repeatedly tried to settle arguments that arose and to cheer up her fellow fighters when they were close to giving up.
With her last jungle test “Energy” Lucy fought for the main courses. She had to go second and took a seat at the legendary wooden table where so many jungle queens had already sat. Various delicacies were served – everything from sweet potato fries to burgers. But of course she didn’t choose the conventional food, but the less appealing dish – including crocodile heart – to win stars. Lucy also had to squeeze fish, camel and cow eyes and drink the juice – if only she had chosen coconut water! She won three main courses and her favorite dish. She had to give up her goodie. There was too little time to eat a whole crocodile heart.
It became particularly emotional during this year’s season when fellow camper Cora Schumacher, 47, asked the curly red head whether she had a permanent partner by her side. “Unfortunately not. I’ve met someone, but it’s complicated. “It’s more of a situation,” Lucy reported. She has problems accepting love and has been in therapy for four months to “clean up her life.” It became heartbreaking when the 47-year-old talked about her deceased mother and her unfulfilled wish , to be able to work through the relationship with her again together with her. Lucy had the potential for victory primarily due to her ambition in numerous tests that her camp colleagues had previously failed miserably.

With her lively and open-minded nature, Leyla Lahouar, 27, managed to convince viewers and her fellow contestants from week to week – apart from “Bachelor” colleague Kim Virginia, 28, who loves little Leyla so often she tried to provoke as much as she could. With her “Spacebun” hairstyle and a lot of humor, the 27-year-old fought her way through two weeks of “I’m a Star – Get Me Out of Here!”. In keeping with her dating show history, Leyla also enjoyed the tentative flirtation with camp colleague Mike Heiter, 31, with whom she held many intimate vigils and gave him passionate massages.

At her last jungle test she chose “Passion”. To do this, she was strapped to a disk on the floor where she had to endure five minutes while mealworms, meat waste, etc. landed on her. She bravely held out for four minutes, but then she broke the test with the magical words “I’m a star, get me out of here!” away. She has already shouted this sentence twice in the past. That meant: no dessert, no drink, no goodie.

Twenty4tim
Influencer and singer Tim Kampmann, aka “Twenty4tim”, 23, probably brought the greatest reach to the 2024 jungle camp and took third place. While his fans blew up the phone lines for 17 days, in the end it wasn’t enough for victory. Tim showed in the Australian rainforest that there is more to him than a Tiktoker with an audience of millions. The 23-year-old always had an open ear, especially for camp outsider Kim Virginia, right up until she moved out. In the camp he confessed to Lucy that he wanted to be like her one day, moving not only the 47-year-old but also the viewers in front of the television to tears.

Tim chose the “Footwork” test and thus played for the starters. To do this, he had to lie in a coffin-like pit with 12 snakes and unscrew stars in the process. To do this, he was covered with millet so that the snakes would be protected and not crawl under him. He had five minutes to do all of this. He also played for the dishes, favorite drink and goodie and got all 5 stars!
Whether in Sex talk with Kim or choking in several food tests – the influencer fought his way through numerous jungle tests and never tired of emphasizing the love for his fans, but also the song he was promoting. As an honest person, the 23-year-old also spoke about his biggest internet shitstorm in connection with the 2021 flood disaster in Germany. His behavior and the filming of the house’s flooded basement had not only attracted positive attention. For Tim, bullying experiences were and are a bitter reality. In the jungle telephone he explained through tears: “I do what I want, all the idiots are welcome to gossip behind my back, because that’s where they belong. I don’t look backwards, I look forward!”
Mike Heiter and Fabio Knez had to leave in the semi-finals
For two jungle campers it was time to say goodbye shortly before the big goal. Mike Heiter was the first to fly out in the semi-finals on Saturday evening and thus took 5th place in this year’s jungle camp. Fabio Knez, 30, finished fourth in the ranking and just barely scratched finalist status.

Being stuck in the jungle camp with your ex-girlfriend and not losing your temper – only one person can do that! Mike Heiter, 31, just let himself He couldn’t be bothered, even if his ex-affair Kim Virginia teased him every day in the camp and apparently made it his mission to lure the down-to-earth mechatronics engineer out of his reserve. The 31-year-old much preferred spending his time in the Australian rainforest with reality colleague Leyla Lahouar, 27, rather than with Kim. The two were apparently very fond of each other and – much to Kim Virginia’s displeasure – started dating. Whether at the campfire during the night watch or in the camp’s swimming pool – Mike always had an open ear and not just for Leyla.
With his honest nature, he convinced the audience and revealed details from his private life that not everyone would have expected. “Partly I had nothing because I had to pay so much – taxes and stuff. And that’s the situation why I lived with my mother. Because I had to move in there. Because I couldn’t get my own apartment at that moment,” confessed the 31-year-old. His ex-girlfriend Kim also made Mike’s little daughter an issue at camp – the reality star’s pride and joy. The former “Love Island” candidate also found only loving words for his daughter’s mother, TV colleague Elena Miras, 31.

Braided pigtails on the right and left, a neatly combed mustache, retro glasses on his nose and the Speedo with his own face – that made it all Fabio Knez in the jungle is a visual eye-catcher for the audience from day one. He was secretly considered a top favorite in the reality world because, in addition to his extraordinary look, the 30-year-old was particularly characterized by his helpfulness in dealing with camp senior Heinz Hoenig, 72, as well as his unique sayings and stories, which he always tells knew how to place it correctly.
The vacuum cleaner representative marched through the two weeks without any problems and provided several highlights along the way. For example, in the game “Letter Soup” alongside his colleague Heinz Hoenig, he came up with the correct solution words for the crossword puzzle, but both participants failed to spell them. “We’re not just big readers, Heinz and I,” summed up Fabio after the relatively unsuccessful game. He also revealed funny details about his twelve-year career as a civil servant and revealed: “I didn’t even manage to do just one thing a day.”
