I'm A Celebrity's Maura Higgins, 34, baffles fans as she admits she has no idea how to use a disposable camera and can't understand why the picture doesn't come out immediately

As a seasoned observer of reality TV and its contestants, I must say that Maura Higgins’ journey in the jungle has been nothing short of captivating. Her ability to conquer her fears, from dealing with her fear of spiders to navigating the complexities of the Bushtucker Trials, is a testament to her resilience and determination.


On I’m A Celebrity, viewers found themselves puzzled on Tuesday evening when Maura Higgins tried to snap a group photo using a disposable camera.

After the latest group outing aboard The Fright Bus, the participants disembarked, carrying bags containing assorted items such as snacks, clothing, and even a guitar, among other things.

However, upon searching through his bag, Alan Halsall from “Coronation Street” unearthed a disposable camera, which sparked enthusiasm among the celebrities.

Gathering near the firepit, dressed in an assortment of garments, Jane quipped, “This is surely going to be the most unconventional wedding photograph we’ll ever take,” while they all waited patiently for Love Island celebrity Maura to capture the moment under the starry sky.

In my attentiveness, I swiftly observed that Maura might not have been using the camera correctly. So, I gently suggested, “Perhaps you should rotate the camera for better usage.

She replied: ‘Like this?’

In the Irish model’s hands, the camera was lifted skyward, aimed at the campmates. She hoped to snap a picture of all, so she shouted, “Ready!” And with that, everyone broke into smiles.

After the flash went of, Maura asked: ‘How do we see it?’ 

Alan seemed astonished that Maura didn’t recall the disposable camera, and he responded, “Really? Don’t you recollect them? Just how old are you?” (This version aims to maintain the original meaning while using simpler language.)

Maura, who’s birthday it was that day, confirmed: ’34 today thanks, god these are old’. 

Enthusiasts flocked to what was previously called Twitter, expressing their surprise that the reality star seemed unaware of how to handle a disposable camera, given she is in her 30s.

In her early thirties, one might expect Maura to be familiar with how a camera functions. Yet, here she stands, puzzled by a disposable camera. “But what’s this thing?” she questions, holding the camera in her hand. Baffling, isn’t it?

It’s surprising that Maura, who’s older than me, seems unaware of what a disposable camera is. I remember using them frequently during my childhood, but it appears 34-year-old Maura is behaving as if she doesn’t know about them at all.

Maura, who is 34 years old, struggles with using a traditional camera since she’s only familiar with those found on smartphones. I find it endearing that despite her age, she doesn’t know the ins and outs of an old-school camera.

Towards the latter part of the show, tension arose between Maura and Jane Moore during their challenging Bush Tucker Trial.

As a lifestyle connoisseur, I found myself being part of an exciting duo – a beloved television personality and a well-known reality star – who were both thrilled to embark on an unforgettable journey together: facing “Fright At The End of The Tunnel.” We had earned the most votes, putting us at the forefront of this daring adventure!

In a location above ground, Maura was tasked with locating concealed phrases that served as secret codes. She relayed these codes to Jane, who was submerged underground near a star-locked chamber. Using those coded phrases, Jane managed to open the celestial bodies.

During the intense court proceedings, Maura exclaimed “Impolite!” at Jane, following her apparent difficulty in spelling the word “Boat” due to Maura’s Irish accent.

Maura spelled out the word clearly and loudly, but Jane couldn’t understand that she was saying the letter ‘A’. 

In response to Jane’s persistent questioning about the contents of the letter, Maura grew frustrated and exclaimed, “It’s an A! And it stands for ‘annoying’!

In a race against time with 12 minutes left to find twelve stars, an alarm blared, prompting Maura to navigate through the tunnels. She searched diligently for concealed code words in the sand of each section. Along the way, she was accompanied by various guests – such as toads, lizards, and her most dreaded creatures, spiders.

While Jane was making her way through the submerged passages, she faced difficulties due to the water as her goggles fogged up, obstructing her vision, and it proved challenging for her to maintain her position beneath the surface long enough to unveil the stars.

Ultimately, Jane and Maura received six out of twelve stars for their camp experience, and were commended by Ant and Dec, who expressed: “Your performance in that trial was incredibly challenging. Given that, I believe you both did exceptionally well. You should feel nothing but pride about your accomplishment.

On the way back, an emotional Maura got teary over conquering her fears.

It is anticipated that Maura will earn approximately £1.5 million through endorsement contracts due to her participation on I’m A Celebrity.

The television personality, who recently had her birthday while in the jungle on the latest episode, is one of the front-runners to be crowned “Queen of the Jungle.” She entered the camp later last week as a newcomer.

I am honored that numerous companies seem eager to collaborate with me, as I anticipate a substantial financial reward upon my return from my Down Under journey.

According to a trusted insider, numerous beauty companies, clothing brands, and television executives from both the U.K. and U.S. have been eagerly waiting to collaborate with Maura. Remarkably, she has received some outstanding job proposals.

It is reported that Maura appears enthusiastic regarding fresh possibilities, with word coming from a source that companies such as M.A.C, Calvin Klein, and Hugo Boss have reached out to her following her jungle adventure.

According to the source, the upcoming chapter promises great things for her as she eagerly looks forward to the new possibilities that are on the horizon.

TopMob have contacted Maura’s representatives for comment.
