After eviction from the camp on Friday night's show, pin-up Sam couldn't wait to lather up in her plush suite at the five-star Palazzo Versace hotel on Australia's Gold Coast.
"I've been waiting for a bath all week," giggled Sam as she snuggled into Myra's arms.
But before leaping into the foam, the 43-year-old model and singer revealed she was gutted not to have faced one of the show's most daunting challenges - eating a kangaroo testicle.
"I really enjoyed my bushtucker trial on the island with Gino," she said. "But I'd have loved to have done more. I'm a tough little girl and nothing frightens me - even a kangaroo ball. I've never tried one but I'd have given it a try. I've heard they're very chewy.
"What's the worst thing I've ever put in my mouth? The only animal I've ever eaten that was gross was a scorpion in Thailand, but it was covered in chocolate so it wasn't too bad. No, wait... the worst thing I've ever put in my mouth is a Brussels sprout. I hate them!"
Recalling her ordeal on the deserted island at the start of the series, Sam added: "It was a bit of a shock to jump off a boat and swim to that island but it eased me into living rough. Gino and I learned a lot by being on that island. We were a bit more prepared for the jungle than everyone else after spending the night there.

"But I still can't believe I put a LIVE SPIDER in my mouth in the trial there. I'm very proud of that. I thought it would go into a little ball as soon as I put it in, but it didn't. It just wiggled about and tickled. I thought, 'I hope I don't swallow it and choke or something.' "
And that wasn't the only jungle nasty Sam encountered. She also discovered a blood-sucking tick had burrowed its way into the back of her head. "It was really weird," said Sam. "I had a little feel about in the morning and came across what I thought was a spot.
"I thought to myself, 'No, I've never felt that before.' So I went and got it checked and it WAS a tick. They removed it straight away, so I was fine."
