Speaking to hosts Anthony McPartlin and Declan Donnelly after learning of her win, Jill said: “I just can’t believe it. Honestly, I think I’m going to owe my grandma a lot of money for the 12 million votes she’s done. We were one big team, I don’t think there should be one winner, we couldn’t have got through it without all of us.”
For her final meal in camp after her last gruelling trial Jill opted for prawn cocktail to start, followed by a traditional beef dinner with gravy and Yorkshire pudding, and a cheese board for dessert. She had a cola for her drink, and chose a flat white coffee and bar of milk chocolate for her treat.
