Fake set up
Springbrook National Park is described as a ‘lowland subtropical rainforest’ rather than a jungle. So to ensure that the production unit and the campmates are not drenched in rain, the show boasts a man-made roof where the recording equipment and food are kept.
Mirror reported that the roof doesn’t cover the campmates’ beds when they sleep at night but it does cover a significant area of the jungle. A TV insider said:

This comes after fans have been fuming that despite ‘torrential rain,' the campmates never seem to have wet hair. One said:
Funny that when it’s pouring down with rain the fire's still going and their hair's never wet #ImACelebMore under this adMore under this ad
Another added:
The fact all the celebrities are completely dry when it's supposedly 'torrential rain' just shows how much of a set-up it all is.
Insiders have also revealed that the waterfall shower actually has an ‘off switch’ which cuts the water supply between 3pm to 6pm to conserve water.
