Charlene White admitted she "crumbled" as she screamed "Get Me Out Of Here!" and abandoned the Bushtucker Trial ahead of this evening's eviction.
Having been so brave on The Ledge trial on her way into camp with Jill Scott, the Loose Women star, 42, was unable to tackle this test underground and was left visibly upset.
Charlene and Boy George arrived at the trial clearing and Dec asked Charlene why she thought the public had chosen her.
Charlene said: “Probably because this was my worst nightmare… I suspect it involves us being underground…”
Ant explained the trial: “This is Watery Grave. You both need to climb down inside these tombs and work together to release 11 stars.
"The person in the first tomb will move a magnet to move the stars around the maze and through to the second tomb.
"The celebrity in there will need to work the stars around their maze until they can be released. Once you get a star, get it in your star bag. Only stars in your star bag at the end of time will count.”
Dec added: “You should expect the unexpected.” He also added: “Either of you can stop the Trial at any time by saying ‘I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here!’ however, the Trial is over for both of you and you lose the chance to win any further stars.”
Boy George chanted as he went down the ladder saying: “Hello creatures, I come in peace.”
He added: “Least we’re going to get a bath.”
Charlene told Boy George: “You might have to talk me through this George, help me try and not absolutely freak out.”
She added: “I don’t think I can do this. I’ve just come out of the water as I can’t get in with the eels.”
Water spiders and mud crabs were added to their tombs.
Charlene admitted: “I’m not sure I can do this. I can’t even step in the water George, currently.”
Boy George said: “Calm down babe, you got this.”
Panicked Charlene said: “I’m trying, oh god I’m really trying.”
When Ant told her time was ticking, she said firmly: “I know that Anthony!”
Charlene then said: “I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! I was trying, I can’t.”
Boy George gave a crying Charlene a hug and said: “It was tough, it was tough.”
Charlene said: “I was fine up until something else fell on me and I was like, ‘I can’t.’ I think I panicked. I got my head around it and then something else came and I crumbled.”
“I’m really disappointed in myself and disappointed for camp.”
But the camp reacted by giving her a hug and sympathising with her.
Owen in the Bush Telegraph said: “Charlene looked devastated. She looked really disappointed in herself. Moments like that are where I love the camp, everyone came together, gave her a hug and made sure she’s alright.”
Sue found Charlene in the shower and hugged her and made her cry again.
Charlene said: “I feel like I’ve let the team down.”
Sue said: “Everyone’s got a limit. We’ve all got limits. We’re not the Mikes in the world, OK. We have other strengths.”
Charlene added: “I really miss the kids.”
Sue said: “When that happens it brings up everything.”
Charlene added: “I know why I came here…”
Sue asked: “What, show you can stick your head in a bunch of eels and a crocodile?”
Charlene replied: “Just to feel like I can conquer fear and really challenge myself and just be able to get through stuff. If I’m not doing that, what’s the point in me being here?”
Sue said: “I’d argue, if you look at your first day, what you did before you even got in here, and then if you look at what you were like the first night crying… you’ve conquered everything.”

Earlier Charlene had also defended herself over RV Gate where she has been blasted for not using the bed she was supposed to sleep in.
She told Sue: “I’m an impartial journalist, I can’t be sharing a room with a sitting MP because that just doesn’t sit well with me impartiality wise.
"And I just think, if he were ever to become minister again how can I sit and question him about anything when I’ve shared a room with him?”
