The camp and viewers were shocked when Ant and Dec revealed it was Maura and Barry.

Fans took to Reddit to say the same thing after they found out.

One said: "Irish people should be allowed to vote.

"Tonight wouldn’t have gone down the same way if we could LMAO."

Another replied: "Have thought this for yeaaaars. I've watched this show since I was a kid and can't believe we can't vote yet! Especially this year with 2 of us in there!"

A third chimed in: "Irish people should be allowed to vote. What an injustice!"

"I CONCUR. A quarter of camp this year was IRISH !!!," a fourth fumed.

Fans were left reeling after the pair got the boot tonight.

The news didn’t go down well with fans, with one person commenting: “Am gutted Maura and Barry gone. Didn't want anyone to leave TBH.”

A second wrote: “Noooo I'm gutted to see Barry and Maura go!”

I'm A Celeb's Barry and Maura hint at camp tension as they mock Tulisa and brand her 'not a morning person'

And a third added: “Barry and Maura were my two faves absolutely gutted they’re both out.”

The terms and conditions for I'm A Celeb voting state that viewers in the UK, Isle of Man, and Channel Islands may vote.

This means that those watching in the Republic of Ireland cannot cast a vote, but those in Northern Ireland can as it is part of the United Kingdom.

Despite being voted off the show, Maura said: "I'm really happy! I said it last night, I said it this morning, I was like 'it's my time'

"I had a gut feeling and my gut feeling is never wrong!"

Meanwhile, Barry said: "As I'm the original cyclone, I am kind of disappointed with that slipping and looking like a clown.

"It would have been great!"
