I’m a Celeb 2023: Nella Rose confronts Nigel Farage over Brexit campaign as two late arrivals announced
Nigel #Nigel
I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! is well and truly underway.
The reality series returned to screens on Sunday night (19 November), with the third episode of the 2023 season bringing arguments, emotional upheaval and electrifying challenges.
Viewers are getting to know the new crop of celebrities decamping to the Australian outback in the hopes of being crowned this year’s King or Queen of the Jungle.
All eyes will undoubtedly be on former Ukip and Brexit party MEP Nigel Farage who, following in the footsteps of disgraced politician Matt Hancock last year, is among the stars who have entered the jungle. The controversial politician is joined by This Morning’s Josie Gibson, Jamie Lynn Spears, and YouTuber Nella Rose. You can find the full line-up of 2023 campmates here.
After three dramatic nights, hosts Ant and Dec announced that two new campmates have arrived in the jungle: sports stars Tony Bellew and Frankie Dettori. Find out everything you need to know about the two new arrivals here.
During Tuesday’s episode, Nigel Farage referenced the time he survived a plane crash when he was the passenger in two-seater light aircraft streaming a Ukip campaign banner behind it. He revealed that the physical injuries he incurred from that crash mean that he can’t take part in certain Bushtucker Trials in the series.
Meanwhile, things got heated between campmates when YouTuber Nella Rose, 26, and First Dates star Fred Sirieix, 51, butted heads after she accused him of treating her like a “little girl” and for making comments that he is old enough to be her dad. Nella became upset following Fred’s comments because her own father died in 2016.
I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! airs Sunday to Friday at 9pm and Saturday at 9.30pm on ITV.

Nella Rose confronts Nigel Farage over immigration policies in 2016 campaign
21:51 , Ellie Muir
Nella Rose faced a dilemma when she and Nigel Farage bonded during their first Bushtucker Trial on Monday.
She felt conflicted about this since the controversial politician is known for espousing right-wing views on subjects ranging from immigration and the gender pay gap.
She decided to confront Nigel about it, asking him: “Let’s get everything out in the open. All the tea is coming out now… apparently you’re anti-immigrant?”
Nigel tried to shrug it off, saying: “If you came with me through South London, you’d be astonished.”
Nella asked: “So everyone hates you for no reason? Not that everyone hates you, that was so bad. Sorry.”
Nigel: “You can disagree with somebody, but to chuck around accusations the way they’ve been chucked around is grossly unfair. Anti-immigrant, right? No, no, all I’ve said is we cannot go on with the numbers coming to Britain that are coming.”
Nella said: “I’m one of the numbers?”
Nigel replied: “So that’s it then, should it be 5 million a year, 10 million… you don’t seem to understand.”
Nella said: “Those immigrants that are coming in, I came in.”
Nigel insisted: “Hang on! Think!”
Nella asked: “What is so wrong about immigrants?”
Nigel said: “Listen. Since 2000, the British population has increased by 10 million. 10 million.”
Nella said: “Good thing, right?”
Nigel replied: “Good thing, unless you want a GP appointment…”
Nella asked: “I’m stopping you getting a GP appointment? You’re not getting an appointment because the NHS is lacking funding. I bet you anything if every single immigrant or from immigrant descent was to leave the UK, all your doctors, go… most of your doctors are Asian right? Most of your nurses are African women, right?
“You want us gone, that’s all I understood.”
Nella said to Nigel: “My main point was that we’ve got into this jungle and I really like you and I want to know why everyone hated you. We don’t have to come to a common ground. You probably like a lot of things that I don’t like. And I probably like a lot of things that you don’t like…we can have these conversations.”
Nigel Farage hints to campmates he could be future PM
21:34 , Ellie Muir
In a chat with Made in Chelsea star Sam Thompson, controversial politician Nigel Farage was quizzed on his view on the current state of British politics, and whether he would go for being the PM himself.
Sam asked: “Who is your favourite prime minister ever in your lifetime?”
Nigel said: “Really, in my lifetime, two prime ministers who’ve been really strong, who’ve changed the country: one’s Thatcher and one’s Blair. I didn’t like the way Blair changed the country at all but I have to admit he was a strong leader. Margaret was a very strong leader. They were tough times, but she changed the country completely.”
EastEnders star Danielle Harold then asked Nigel: “Would you ever want to run?”
Nigel didn’t rule it out, stating: “I don’t know. We’ll see. Depends how much of a mess the country gets in. I honestly don’t know. It’s not an easy job.”
Speaking to Bush Telegraph, Farage said: “Never say never…”
Jamie finally has a swing in her step!
21:32 , Ellie Muir
Jamie Lynn admitted her campmates wouldn’t have expected her to get all 10 stars saying.
“I think they were saying, ‘You’re going to do it’ but thinking, ‘No way, she’s been crying for five days straight, it ain’t happening’ so I’m really, really happy that I get to come back and bring them the joyous 10 stars.”
She added: “I might cry a lot but I can come and do this.”
Jamie Lynn Spears proves campmates wrong with impressive comeback challenge
21:31 , Ellie Muir
Jamie Lynn spoke to herself as she went along saying as she reached the 5th level, 90ft in the air: “I just want to be done with this.”
But surprisingly, when she reached 100ft in the air, Jamie Lynn walked out onto a plank before jumping to catch the final 10th star! Good going, Jamie.
Jamie Lynn Spears could be triumphant in sky-high challenge,,,
21:28 , Ellie Muir
Jamie Lynn Spears is making light work out of the sky-high challenge up to 90ft in the air. She has encountered green ants and all sorts of creepy crawlies.
Ant exclaimed: “Look at that, she’s rapid! She’s not bothered!”
As she tackled a see-saw mid-way through, Dec added: “Light on her feet!”
Could she surprise her campmates and win all of the stars?
Go on Jamie…
21:19 , Ellie Muir
Dec explained: “You have to climb from the bottom to the top of that rig, collecting the stars as you go. Every time you unclip a star, you clip it to yourself. Each star you collect is worth a meal for camp. You’ve got 10 minutes to make your way up there. You can expect a few surprises along the way.”
Jamie Lynn insisted: “I want to do the trial.”
Ant joked: “You can say, ‘No thanks, y’all!’”

Meanwhile, the uber-positive Sam Thompson thinks Jamie will step up to the challenge.
Jamie Lynn insisted: “I’m not gonna let y’all down!”
‘If Jamie left yesterday, I would have been right behind her,’ says Nella as she threatens quitting the show
21:15 , Ellie Muir
YouTuber Nella Rose told food writer Grace Dent that she doesn’t usually follow through with things, suggesting that this mentality might influence whether she decides to stay in the I’m a Celeb jungle…
Nella told Grace: “I’ve never, ever in my life started something and finished it. Ever. I always quit, or I always sign on short term or if I don’t like it I can leave… this is the one thing I said I’m going to try and stick it through but I can already see myself… if I get in my head too much…”
Grace asked: “Do you bolt, you run the minute things start to pick up?”
Nella said: “When I was younger I was put in a lot of situations that I had no control over. I was sad and miserable. So now that I have the control over my happiness and the things I want to do I think I’m kind of, I’ve become obsessed with it: ‘Oh, you don’t have to do this if you don’t want to.’”
Nella then told Bush Telegraph that whenever she feels uncomfortable or sad, she tends to run away from her problems.
Nella told Grace: “I used to have so much discipline but that was when I was in a bad space. Lack of self discipline got me from a size 12 to a size 20. Literally my dad passed, I locked myself in the house for two months, I drank every single day and ate every single day and I gained it all and it was pandemic.”
Nella admitted: “If Jamie left yesterday I would have been right behind her… I’m leaving. I just don’t want to be the first.”
There will be no Bushtucker Trial vote tonight because all 10 of them will be taking part in a challenge later…

During the show, campmates are likely to be bitten by all kinds of creepy crawlies, including leeches and to spare viewers from seeing such unsettling blood marks on contestants, they are required to wear red socks to mask it.

Jamie Lynn Spears has been open about the emotional distress she is facing while at camp, specifically missing her two daughters back at home. Her campmates have been doing their best to comfort her, but Spears has been adamant that she does not want to be in the jungle any more, like when she claimed “I quit” in last night’s episode.
But the actor has been voted by the public to take part in tonight’s Bushtucker Trial titled the ‘Climb of Cruelty’. How will she do?

Nella Rose and Fred Sirieix have butted heads on I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here over a perceived slight about her late father.
In scenes aired on Tuesday’s episode, the online content creator expressed her distaste for a comment the First Dates maître d’ made in reference to his age.
While Sirieix was preparing food for the campmates’ dinner, he batted off compliments that he wasn’t “old” at age 51 by comparing his age to Nella’s. “Yeah, but I’m not 26 anymore, am I? I could be your dad,” he reasoned.

First Dates star Fred Sirieix, 51, upset YouTuber Nella Rose, 26, after saying that he is old enough to be her dad.
In the Bush Telegraph, Nella explained: “Last night after dinner Fred made a comment about him basically how he could be my dad. I took offence to that because one of the first conversations we had together was me opening up about the fact that my dad’s passed away.”
She continued: “I didn’t say anything about it last night because I was kind of just annoyed about it. So I slept on it and I kind of thought about it and I was just like, this is not the kind of person I want to be around.”
Nella decides to ignore Fred during breakfast to make a point, before asking him to ‘leave’ her alone.
Fred realised he had upset Nella and asked her what he had done.
Nella explained he’d made a comment the day before, saying: “You know that my mum’s dead, and you know that my dad’s dead. You know that, right? I’ve come to find out that every time I wanna get creative around the fire, or I want to have something my way, my own food that I am entitled to, my way, you tend to get an attitude, right?”
Fred replied: “I am so sorry. Can I just say? First of all, I am sorry I’ve offended you. I am unaware that you felt offended. I am unaware that what I said would lead to this conversation, I only said that in a way because I am older than you, I am 51 and you’re 26.”
Nella said back: “I’m not stupid, you’re not going to little girl me, you’re not.”
Nella said she had accepted his apology but concluded that the pair should not be friends.

“We went to a nightclub in Ireland after doing a show together one night and we were just chatting, getting on really well. She went to the toilet, right? She left her handbag at the table with me. So then, I thought, right, got her phone out and called myself so I had her phone number. It took about three months of pestering her to get a date.”
He said that their first date was at McDonald’s car park in Wembley.

Nella will have to crawl through tunnels in an underground lair and retrieve gold stars for camp. But will she be able to face the spiders and creepy crawlies that await her without screaming “I’m a Celebrity!”?

I’m a Celeb lost another million viewers in Monday’s second episode
Tuesday 21 November 2023 16:45 , Ellie Muir
The launch episode of I’m a Celebrity…Get Me Out of Here! lost a staggering two million viewers on last year.
The reality series is an annual ratings winner for ITV, pulling in an average of nine to 11 million viewers throughout each series.
However, the 2023 premiere, which saw a new crop of stars enter the Australian jungle, had an audience peak of 7.8 million, and an average of just seven million.
Now, it seems that the show is losing even more viewers. According to viewing figures for Monday night’s second episode with an average, there was an average of 6.1 million viewers tuning in, which is almost one million lower than Sunday’s launch episode. It is standard for the show to experience a drop in viewers after its launch episode – but does this mean “#BoycottImACelebrity” is having an impact on viewing figures?

Nigel Farage gets political about Boris Johnson and buts heads with Fred Sirieix about Brexit
Monday 20 November 2023 21:25 , Ellie Muir
It was only a matter of time before things got political at camp…
“What’s he like at a personal level?” asks Josie Gibson about the former Prime Minister Boris Johnson.
“Entertaining, surprisingly introverted,” said Farage.
“He’s one of the most disorganised human beings that ever lived… b***** chaos…shambles,” he said.
“What’s the benefit of Brexit?” Fred Sirieix jumps in, adding that he thought a level of “intolerance” was encouraged by the Brexit campaign.
“I thought it was shameful what you did Nigel,” said Fred, adding that the original UKIP campaign was “dehumanising” towards migrants.
Nigel defended his stance, suggesting that there are “benefits” to Brexit, before other campmates, including Grace Dent, escaped the heated conversation to wash up the dishes instead.

Opening up further, Lynn Spears spoke about giving birth to her daughter Maddie when she was aged 17.
“I got pregnant when I was young and the whole world was like ‘you’re a s***.’”
“I had to hide away for a long time,” she said, before explaining that she moved to Mississippi to get away from the press attention.
“When I first got pregnant, they didn’t want me to have a baby,” she said, breaking down into tears before clarifying that “they” meant “everyone around me”.
“When I got out, I told my parents I was gonna emancipate them,” she said of her relationship with her parents.
However, the Zoey 101 star said she’s proud of how far she has come.
“I’m proud of where I’m at right now,” she said. “I’m really thankful.”
