'I'm the luckiest duck alive,' says comic

Fiona O’Loughlin has been crowned Australia's queen of the jungle.

The 54-year-old comedian won I’m A Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here! yesterday. 

After  her victory, she said: 'I just feel like the luckiest duck alive.

'Without a doubt, the jungle has changed me. I will never take anything for granted again.'

'My first duty as jungle queen is to deal with my hygiene. 

Clearly delighted with her success, she joked from the jungle throne: ' I hope to be carted around in this chair by my minions looking very regal.'

She won $100,000 for her charity Angel Flight, which jets people to get medical treatment.

O’Loughlin is now planning to return to stand-up with a tour about the show and her well-publicised battles with alcoholism.

Others previously ejected from the jungle included Peter Rowsthorn, who played Kim’s husband Brett in the sitcom Kath And Kim.
