Tear-Soaked Reunion: Ruby Wax Breaks Down as She Meets Gracie – Aitch’s Little Sister – Moments After Her Shock Jungle Exit. The 72-year-old comedian, the fifth star to leave the show, was welcomed by the families of her fellow campmates, many of whom wore matching T-shirts with Aitch’s name printed on them. As soon as she stepped out of the taxi, Ruby headed straight toward Aitch’s family – where 16-year-old Gracie, who has Down’s Syndrome, walked up to greet her with a beaming smile
Ruby Wax shared an unexpectedly emotional moment with Aitch’s sister Gracie as she arrived back at the five-star Marriott in Surfers Paradise following her dramatic eviction from the I’m A Celebrity jungle.
The 72-year-old comedian, who became the fifth star to leave the show, was welcomed by a crowd of campmates’ families wearing matching T-shirts with Aitch’s name printed across the front. As Ruby stepped out of her taxi, she headed straight toward Aitch’s family—where 16-year-old Gracie, who has Down’s Syndrome, stepped forward with a huge smile.
The pair immediately held hands, speaking softly to one another in a moment so tender it left onlookers visibly moved. The meeting came just hours after Aitch had broken down in camp while talking about his bond with Gracie. He told the others that “they’re the best people in the world”, adding that although people often praise their own siblings, his sister was “the sickest person I’ve ever met”.
He went on to explain that hearing stories of mistreatment towards children with Down’s Syndrome “makes me feel sick”, before performing a song he wrote for his sister at the Jungle Arms. The tune, which he later released professionally, donates all proceeds to the Down’s Syndrome Association.
Fans watching the scene unfold at home were instantly invested, flooding social media with messages such as: “Aitch has to win. He’s such a lovely man”, and “Bet Aitch’s sisters are so proud of him right now.”
Ruby’s exit, however, left viewers stunned. Many felt she deserved a spot in the final. “What has just happened!!! How has Ruby just left before Jack and Martin?” one fan wrote. Even Paloma Faith reacted with disbelief, commenting: “WTF she was surely going to win?”
