'I'm A Celebrity': Laila Morse Becomes The Second Star To Leave The Jungle

Second Star Leaves 'I'm A Celebrity'

'EastEnders' actress Laila Morse has become the second contestant to be voted out of 'I'm A Celebrity ... Get Me Out Of Here!'.

The star - known for playing Big Mo in the BBC One soap - claimed the experience has made her "a better person" after she left the jungle during Monday night's live show.

Laila and 'Fresh Prince of Bel Air' star Alfonso Ribeiro were the final two celebrities to find out their fate on the ITV show.

When hosts Ant and Dec confirmed it was her who would be leaving, she clapped her hands and said: "Thank you!".

It came the day after she completed her first solo Bush Tucker trial, winning 10 out of 11 stars for her fellow jungle inhabitants by getting up close and personal with a number of creepy crawlies, and even a 30kg crocodile.

Laila, the sister of Hollywood actor Gary Oldman, said she was pleased to have contributed to camp life during her 17-day stint, adding: "At least I've done my trial."

Other campmates appeared distraught however, hugging her and crying "No!". 'Emmerdale' actress Lucy Pargeter pleaded: "Don't take her away, don't go".

Asked by Ant and Dec how she felt at being evicted, Laila said: "Disappointed, really. But I could do with a nice hot bath."

She appeared emotional as she continued: "It's made me a better person. I was always a bit fiery and... don't cry again... and it's calmed me down.

"Had a lot to think about, family, and yeah - I'm glad I've done it."

She tipped Westlife singer Kian Egan as a potential winner of this year's series.

Laila described being covered by crabs during her Who Dares Wins Stars trial as "quite invigorating" and "quite a nice feeling" and said being in close proximity to a snake was "easy".
