Although axed campmates typically appear on the following day’s Unpacked on ITV2, this was not the case for Tulisa.
Host Joel Dommett confirmed to viewers: “Unfortunately we do not have Tulisa on the show today.”
An ITV spokesperson told The Sun that Tulisa’s absence was due to “personal reasons.”
And Ant and Dec were also absent from the show which they normally appear on after I’m A Celeb airs.
While some on social media suggested the group absence could be “a case for detective Coleen Rooney,” Ant and Dec were sure to set the record straight.
Appearing on their Instagram-only show named Jungle Club, Ant and Dec joked that they’d had a falling out with Unpacked hosts Joel Dommett and Sam Thompson.
But they then revealed their true whereabouts, admitting they’d had to go and prepare for something.
“We couldn’t do it because we’re going down to camp to do an announcement so we had to go and prepare for that,” the duo explained.
Tulisa has now addressed her absence too, in an Instagram post.

She’d raised a few eyebrows after deleting all the content from her time in the jungle, as well as not following Barry.
But on Wednesday morning, the star decided to do a video to “clear a couple of things up.”
She said: “Just so you know, when I came out of the jungle, I felt fine first of all and then that evening my friends went to bed.
“But because it’s been a while for me I can get overwhelmed quite easily.
“I just started to feel overwhelmed. I thought do you know what, I really just need to take a bit of time for me and just chill.”
She added: “You know, it’s okay to feel a little bit overwhelmed. I’ve been out of the spotlight for a long time.
“I’m still trying to overcome those things. I’ve still got my little demons.
“It doesn’t mean I’m going to go hide under a rock for the next 10 years.
“It means I just need a little bit of time to just process and get right with my thoughts.”
It comes after Tulisa’s fellow evictees Jane Moore and Dean McCollough cheered Melvin Odoom as he arrived at their hotel after being voted off the show.
Tulisa was nowhere to be seen.
