I’m A Celebrity South Africa viewers were let down by this year’s format change as they demand for David Haye be voted out first.

The South Africa series kicked off on Monday (April 6), where the likes of Adam Thomas, Beverley Callard and Ashley Roberts returned for a second experience.

I’m A Celebrity South Africa tension

In the following episode, Gemma Collins and Craig Charles joined the camp as latecomers. As the show has continued, tension has begun to rise.

On Thursday (April 9), Sinitta and Gemma clashed over Gemma’s role in Chicago after Sinitta assumed her bagging the role as Mama Morton was a “joke”.

Last night (April 10), David was slammed by viewers after he shared a “rude” remark about Gemma’s appearance.

While discussing with the camp how thick her hair is, he slyly said: “It definitely ain’t thin,” which many believed was an underhanded insult.

Gemma rolled her eyes and rose above the comment. However, she later expressed in the episode that she didn’t feel welcomed by David.

‘Get David Haye out first’

Over the past few days, David has been rubbing viewers the wrong way. During the launch show, he sent 69-year-old Beverly Callard to the less luxurious camp, Savannah Scrub, without hesitation.

When Gemma took part in the eating trial, he also refused to let her have a drink of water mid-trial.

However, after last night’s remark, many think it was a step too far and have demanded that he be booted off first.

“He will be the first person I will vote out,” one user wrote.

“Vote David out!” another person shared.

“Get David out first,” a third remarked.

“Everyone vote him off and then Sinita next,” a fourth said.

‘There is no voting anyone off’

Despite many wishing for David to be out soon, viewers have been reminded that there is no public voting system due to the show being pre-recorded last year.

“There is no voting out until the last day?” one user wrote.

“How can anyone be voted out when it was filmed last year!!” another person shared.

“There is no voting anyone off,” a third said.

“I want David out but been reminded we can’t vote anyone out!” a fourth expressed.

However, for the final episode, the public will be able to vote for their winner.
