Controversy Strikes
I’M A Celebrity has found itself in the middle of a new fix row as three stars have been ruled out of tonight’s Bushtucker Trial. The announcement came last night, revealing that the trial to win food for camp would be Down the Tubes.
Ruled Out
Ant and Dec, the show’s hosts, disclosed that a third of the campmates were unable to take part in the next trial. Nella Rose, Nigel Farage, and Tony Bellew were all excluded from the trial on “medical grounds”.
Fans Outraged
Furious fans took to social media to express their anger. Many felt that it was unfair for certain contestants to be exempt from trials. They argued that everyone should have an equal chance to participate and questioned the legitimacy of the show.
Replacement Contestants
This Morning star Josie Gibson and food critic Grace Dent were initially chosen by fans to take on the Down the Tubes task. However, Grace Dent has since quit the show for medical reasons. Former EastEnders star Danielle Harold will now take her place after receiving the third highest number of votes.
Continuing Controversy
This latest fix row comes in the wake of criticism towards the show for allegedly giving Nella Rose an “easy ride” and being “highly unfair” in their treatment of her during the trials. Nella’s poor performance in the trials has sparked intense debate among fans.
