I’m A Celeb’s Ant and Dec reveal what really happened between feuding Nella and Fred after their furious bust-up
I’M A Celebrity hosts Ant and Dec have appeared to reveal just how Nella Rose and Fred Sirieix appeared to bury the hatchet after their explosive feud and what ‘really happened’.
The ITV reality show kicked off with a bang when the YouTuber clashed with the First Dates star over a seemingly misinterpreted comment.
Nella erupted into a fit of rage – calling Fred a “weirdo” – having confided in him about her dead parents after he made a comment about being old enough “to be her dad”.
The 26 year old unleashed a war of words on Fred in an epic takedown before insinuating any future friendship between them was over.
The pair were left not speaking to one another and with tensions on the rise just days into the new series.
However, fans saw last night how the pair appeared to put aside their differences to take part in one of the show’s challenges together.
They seemed to be getting on during the task which saw them decalred as the winners as well as engaging in light conversation around the campfire – the first interaction since their fiery exchange.
Now, hosts Ant and Dec have referenced the cooling fallout during one of their post-show live streams on Instagram, the Jungle Club.
Dec read out a question from a fan which said: “How did Fred and Nella make up?”
Offering their insight, he responded: “Well, they didn’t really.
“It wasn’t a big coming together, it just seemed that things have thawed a bit.”
Referencing a moment when Fred offered Nella food, despite her professing that she would never eat his cooking again amid the blistering row, Ant added: “I liked it when Fred said, ‘I’ll just leave this [the food] here if you want it’, and she just said, ‘thank you very much for that’, it’s good.”
He continued: “We don’t want loads of conflict like that, it’s good that they’ve made up… or at least that they are getting on better.”
Dec nodded in agreement as it appeared that the show’s dominating storyline could be drawing to a close.
Nella was slammed over her row with Fred and then again when she said she “didn’t want” her luxury item, which had been won for her by her fellow campmates.
Speaking about her relationship with Fred after the clash, Nella said in the Bush Telegraph: “There’s no situation with me and Fred, it’s just camp life.
“He sits over there and I sit over here, everyone does their camp jobs, and we move forward …”
It also left viewers puzzled how she appeared to be on friendly terms with Fred despite professing her unhappiness with the Channel 4 personality.
