I'm A Celebrity fans defend Frankie Bridge after 'concerning' trial

Frankie Bridge has been defended by some I'm A Celebrity viewers after the latest trial.

The singer and Loose Women star faced music-themed trial Scary-Oke alongside Naughty Boy during Thursday night's trip to Gwrych Castle.

Ant McPartlin and Dec Donnelly told the pair that one celebrity would need to sing while being gunged and pelted with guts and other items - including Yum Yums.

Meanwhile, the other had to down a blended drink - before taking it in turns.

Snoop ‘Frog’, Billie ‘Eye-fish,’ ‘Poo-No’ Mars and ‘Sicki’ Minaj were among the inventive songs played while the pair faced swallowing blended frog’s legs, fish eyes, pig’s anus and vomit fruit.

They completed the challenge with 10 of the 11 possible stars after Frankie struggled to finish her final drink.

And their valiant effort secured the camp a meal of sausages later that day.

Frankie put on a brave display after admitting she found the trial particularly challenging due to her fear of vomiting.

She ended up in tears when she arrived back to camp and was consoled by Louise Minchin.

But fans were quick to defend the star after some critisced her singing after spending years in S Club Juniors and girlband The Saturdays.

@mrperfectlyzac tweeted: "People judging Frankie for singing bad when she’s freezing and had all that horrible stuff being put on her. I don’t think she cares about singing good tbh #imaceleb."

"As if people are judging Frankie's singing when she's in a trial having awful stuff thrown on her, she's freezing & she couldn't even see the words #ImACeleb," @JessieMcFly said.

@xEmmaElkins90 added: "So Frankies freezing her boobies off, having s**t thrown at her and people think she's gonna be singing amazingly #ImACeleb."

"People complaining about frankie’s singing but she was literally freezing and had crap dumped all over her #ImACeleb," @lvrskzz wrote.

Other I'm A Celebrity viewers spoke out about the 'concerning' trial as they watched Frankie and Naughty Boy shiver before being offered towels to keep warm.

"Poor Frankie she shouldn't have to do this and she looks freezing you can see her shaking #ImACeleb," @Ben4eva said.

@mawgan18 said: "Seeing @FrankieBridge shivering and crying is seriously breaking my heart! Protect that gal! Team Frankie all the way! Come on girl you got this! #ImACeleb."

"Frankie’s shaking so much, it’s concerning. I hope she’s okay. #ImACeleb," @DanielJFalconer added.

@Upsighedd said: "Tbh the noticeable level of discomfort in the singing trial really wasn't enjoyable to watch. They shouldn't be getting drenched given the weather conditions. The morale is low as it is, don't feed into it #ImACeleb."
