Ant and Dec 'cringe' at new I'm A Celeb camp tension as Scarlette swipes at Charlene

Fresh I’m A Celebrity…Get Me Out of Here! camp tensions have emerged between Scarlette Douglas and Charlene White during the latest instalment of the ITV reality show.

The A Place In The Sun host spoke about the Loose Women presenter in a candid moment in the Bush Telegraph as frictions emerge in the Australian jungle.

There was beef on I'm A Celebrity.. Get Me Out Of Here! on Tuesday night as dinner time hit once again in the jungle with kangaroo sausages and lady fingers for dessert.

Charlene said of the sausages: “Slice them small and stir fry them with the spring onions.”

Scarlette then said in the confessional booth: “This camp, aka ‘Charlene’s kitchen’, you do what she says, when she says it, get it right.”

Do You Really Want To Hurt Me hitmaker Boy George then said in the Bush Telegraph: “It’s so weird, that [food] bag comes down and Charlene just turns into an entirely different person.

“It’s amazing, she issues orders and tells everyone what to do. I’m like, ‘Wow’. You know, it’s like, ‘Who are you?’”

He added: “Charlene, she just issues orders. For me as an observer of my own feelings, it’s mind blowing.”

After dinner George confided in Scarlette saying: “I just feel like Charlene’s very controlling. She tells you what to do and it really rubs you up the wrong way. I’m struggling with that, but I’ll get over it.

“It’s fine, she’s very sweet as well so it’s a real contradiction. There’s this controlling side and then there’s this caring side and it confuses me.”

But as he spoke Charlene walked in, and hosts Ant McPartlin and Declan Donnelly gasped that it was "cringe, cringe" and "deliciously awkward."

I'm A Celebrity fans fumed at George on Tuesday night over his treatment towards co-star Charlene – as some pointed out he "contradicted himself".

As the pair later discussed the matter, Charlene insisted: "I’m not being the boss," with Boy George adding: "You are being the boss baby."

Boy George then said in the Telegraph: "Charlene, she’s the boss. I’m happy to do nothing if people want to take charge. People are taking it but I think there’s going to be some rebellions."

Viewers hit out at the contestant over his comments about and to Charlene, with many pointing out he was contradicting himself.

One minute he seemed to suggest he wanted to do tasks around the camp, before he told people he wouldn't be rushing to do those same chores.
