At the “Class Reunion of the Jungle Stars” it got emotional on Sunday evening. Surprise guest Sarah Knappik caused disputes.
On Sunday evening (January 23) RTL showed “The class reunion of the jungle stars – now we’re unpacking!” (also at RTL+). Former camper and presenter Olivia Jones (52), also ex-participant in “I’m a Celebrity – Get Me Out of Here!”, looked back on her jungle adventure and chatted about her current life. Sarah Knappik (35) made a special appearance.
Katy Karrenbauer makes the exit
After increasing arguments with other residents, who also asked them to leave the camp, Knappik left the camp voluntarily in 2011 after around eleven days. After a somewhat unsuccessful rap interlude, she joined some fellow campers like Katy Karrenbauer (59) or Thomas Rupprath (44), who reacted dismissively to the surprise appearance. After a retrospective post, the ex-campers’ emotions ran high. “She annoyed me brutally, but I was never rude or aggressive,” explained Rupprath. “She said something about all of us that just wasn’t true,” Karrenbauer said, even after eleven years.
“I want to let that rest,” emphasized a relaxed-looking Knappik. “If you’re still emotionally moved, you have to work on it,” she said to Karrenbauer, who then left the studio annoyed and explained: “Now she wants to let it rest, but she used all of us for ten years to act as a supposed victim to make money off it.” Georgina Fleur (31) took Knappik’s side: “You can’t bully someone like that. Respect that you’ve forgiven that.” Karrenbauer calmed down outside of the studio and ended up returning to the celebs.
Melanie Müller: “It’s really taking me away”
With Melanie Müller (33), Jungle Queen 2014, Knappik’s visit was not the only cause of an emotional outburst (“She manipulated from morning to night”). After looking back at her emotional moments in the camp, in which she also talked about her difficult relationship with her mother, Müller explained: “I think my new situation is just coming up. I’m living in separation. It’s really affecting me right now,” she explained and burst into tears. She also had to leave the studio for a short time.
Georgina Fleur then provided a more or less positive moment. While she was still considered a camp bitch on the reality show in 2013, Fleur is “very relaxed” today as the mother of a daughter. “I should have become a mother much earlier, it’s the most beautiful task in life,” she explained. The waves between her and the little one’s father, Kubilay “Kubi” Özdemir, would have smoothed out. But: “You never know what tomorrow will bring. It’s complicated, it’s like a civil war between us.”
