Survival Of The Fittest’s Warren Phillips broke down in tears as he celebrated his 30th birthday on the reality TV show.
The driller from Gloucester was treated to a kiss from campmate Lottie James as the rest of the two teams cheered.
But earlier in the episode Phillips grew emotional after he had enjoyed a birthday breakfast with his fellow contestants.

He said: “It’s really touching what they are saying about me.
“A lot of people get the wrong impression of me because of how I look and all the tattoos.
“I am a genuine guy, I am not out to hurt anyone… so for them to say I am quite wise and a genuinely nice guy is really flattering coming from 11 people that I don’t really know.”
Viewers offered their support for Phillips on social media as the boys faced the public vote after losing Friday night’s task.
