I’m A Celeb’s Nella Rose defended over explosive Fred Sirieix row by friend

I’m A Celeb: Nella Rose clashes with Fred Sirieix

I’m A Celebrity…Get Me Out of Here! star Nella Rose has been defended by her friend and Love Island star Indiyah Polack.

On Tuesday night, fans of the ITV show watched the social media influencer have a row with Fred Sirieix over a comment he made the night prior.

The First Dates star made a remark surrounding his age and how he could be her father, however, as Nella’s father died in 2020 she took great offence.

In the Bush Telegraph, she admitted not wanting to be around Fred before confronting him about what he’d said.

Despite Fred apologising for his accidental offence, Nella didn’t seem to change her mind as she said: “You only get one chance to disrespect me. I accept your apology but let’s not be friends. How about that?”

Many viewers took to Twitter to support Fred for the row, but Nella’s friend has rushed to her defence.

Appearing on Wednesday’s instalment of Lorraine, Love Island’s Indiyah confessed she thought the two could clash eventually.

Aware that there was no malicious intent with Fred’s comment, Indiyhah said: “I just feel like from first impressions, Fred has such a big personality that can maybe come across sometimes a little bossy.

“Nella has such a big personality herself so I could just see the two of them clashing over something. I didn’t expect it to be this!

“From what I know of Nella, she’s a very bright, bubbly person and she wears her heart on her sleeve, she speaks her mind. I don’t think Fred had any malicious intent.”

Confessing that things can easily be blown out of proportion in the jungle, Indiyah hopes they can get past this incident and make up.

Elsewhere during the episode, Nella took part in her second Bushtucker Trial of the series.

Tackling the challenge, which was titled No Time to Cry, the 26-year-old had to go underground and face a series of critters while trying to earn stars for camp.

Although the trial started off well, the social media influencer started to panic once she had been electric shocked in a chamber with spiders.

Shouting “I’m a celebrity get me out of here”, she was pulled from the challenge and left the underground bunker.

Despite the trial ending quickly, she managed to collect three stars for her campmates.

I’m A Celebrity…Get Me Out of Here! Continues weekdays on ITV from 9pm.
