I'm A Celebrity's Fred Sirieix was under fire over a remark in tonight's episode.
The First Dates presenter is competing to be crowed King of the Jungle in this season's edition of TV's toughest entertainment challenge. Fred has already been embroiled in a row this season with Nella Rose.
Nella has previously opened up on how she has suffered tragedy in her family as her mum and dad have both died. The YouTube star explained she was hurt by a comment Fred had made the night before as she said: "When I wanted to burn fat that you were going to throw away anyways, it’s not even something that we needed to survive in camp, you turned around to me, with an attitude and said, ‘You know I could be your dad, right?’

Fred apologised for the comment and viewers following the show on social media platform X sided with the presenter. However, fans said they had changed their minds after a row on Saturday's episode.
Josie Gibson has been made camp chef and Fred struggled to get used to the change. He said: "Breakfast is basically boiled rice. But there is a way to cook the rice. If not, the rice tastes bitter and it’s really unpleasant in the morning, so hopefully they’ll get it right.”
Josie and Nella were both frustrated with how Fred struggled to hand over the reins as camp chef. Nella said: "It’s just rice. I’m not going crazy, it’s just rice. I’m going back to sleep.”
Fans took to the social media platform X and were frustrated with Fred's behaviour.
Lesley said: "Aw I can’t cope with #Fred and I’m not even in there!"
Kat added: "Fred is driving me ABSOLUTELY INSANE"
Cait commented: "Fred’s genuinely making me want to switch off. this is getting boring now"
Luke posted: "Fred is giving me anxiety"
Lorana posted: "Fred has been rubbing me the wrong way the past few episodes! just because you can cook doesn’t mean others can’t."
Roz said: "Fred is fewmin that Josie turned out to be an ok cook. Now he’s cosying up to Nigel [Farage]. Stop it, you’re losing all the goodwill you’ve built up."
