Josie Gibson sparked feud rumours after fans spotted she failed to mention one of her I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! campmates during her exit interview.
The 38-year-old This Morning presenter narrowly missed out on making it to the show’s grand final when she was evicted from the ITV jungle on Saturday night (December 9). Her surprising exit means Sam Thompson, Tony Bellew and Nigel Farage have a shot at being crowned King of the jungle.
After the mum-of-one exited the camp, she joined hosts Ant and Dec where she was asked who she would like to win the show. Put on the spot, the blonde bombshell complimented both Sam and Tony and noticeably failed to mention Nigel.

She said: “Sam has just got a magic about him, he’s been entertaining from the moment he wakes up to the moment he goes to sleep.
“He’s lifted me when I've been at my lowest and he’s just so charming, but Tony again, he’s just so chivalrous, he’s just a proper gentleman and a proper family man, I love the way he talks about his family.”
When she was asked to pick which star she wants to win, Josie confessed she couldn’t pick between them. Viewers were quick to point out that the TV presenter failed to mention the former politician during her interview.
Taking to X – formerly known as Twitter – one user penned: “#ImACebel Josie who do you want to win? Anyone but Nigel was the short answer she wanted to give.” Another agreed: “Haven’t watched much of the series but what’s Josie Gibson’s beef with Nigel???”
A third echoed: “Josie clearly bitter that Nigel has survived longer than her [cry-laughing emoji]. In your words Josie… cry, cry, cry.” Others were shocked that the former Brexit leader made it all the way to the final, despite several viewers boycotting the series when he first entered the jungle.
One confused viewer wrote: “I’m sorry but how is Nigel still in but Josie, Danielle and Marvin aren’t? #imaceleb.” A second argued: “Farage being in the top 3 is ridiculous. Been good value but should never be ahead of Marvin and Josie #ImaCeleb.”
This wouldn’t be the first campmate Nigel has had bad blood with a campmate on the show. Loyal fans will remember how Nigel famously clashed with TV chef Fred Sirieix over their contrasting views surrounding Brexit.

Nigel also clashed with YouTube star Nella Rose during a tense discussion about cultural appropriation. Nella told viewers in Bush Telegraph: “I was just so disappointed in him (Farage) because we were getting along so well and vibing and I was honestly sad and disappointed about that.”
