I’m A Celeb: Nella Rose clashes with Fred Sirieix
I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! star Fred Sirieix is back in James Jordan’s good books following his awkward exchange with Nella Rose earlier this week.
Former Strictly Come Dancing star James, who regularly critiques the show on social media, previously slammed Fred for the way he grilled Nigel Farage over his Brexit policy.
Taking to X, formerly known as Twitter at the time, he branded the First Dates star a “b*****d”.
Now, James has revealed he’s had a change of heart towards Fred after Nella slammed him for a comment he made about being her dad.
He shared with his 360,000 followers on Wednesday evening: “Catching up with @imacelebrity from last night, I wasn’t a fan of Fred the way he spoke down to Nigel the day before, BUT now I have massive respect for him the way he dealt with Nella. Still have no idea who she is.

“JFYI I’m also old enough to be her dad too #ImACelebrity.”
Around the camp fire earlier this week, Fred mentioned his and Nella’s age gap during a conversation and said the difference could make him her dad.
Nella, who lost her dad in 2020, didn’t question the comment at the time, but confronted him about it the following day.
In the Bush Telegraph, she ranted: “Last night after dinner Fred made a comment about him basically how he could be my dad.
“I took offence to that because one of the first conversations we had together was me opening up about the fact that my dad’s passed away. I didn’t say anything about it last night because I was kind of just annoyed about it.

“So I slept on it and I kind of thought about it and I was just like, this is not the kind of person I want to be around.”
In the morning, Nella hit out at Fred about her issue, which left him stunned.
He went on to apologise for causing offence and explained that it wasn’t his intention.
After further heated words were exchanged, she accepted his apology, but proceeded to suggest a distance between them in camp for the foreseeable.
The moment prompted many viewers to share their thoughts on social media.
Fred’s wife-to-be, who is known as Fruitcake, took to Instagram to write: “Tough watch for some of the show tonight, but Fred did us so proud.
“We know his intention would never be to upset anyone. Keep your head up Fred, we love you.”
Rapper Big Narstie added: “Bless @nellarose not easy greaving (sic) in public [love heart emoji] @fredsirieix1 didn’t deserve that that was cross fire from a greaving (sic) person.”
Speaking on Loose Women about the moment, Janet Street-Porter claimed Fred had been “patronising” towards Nella and hoped the moment didn’t mean she’d be voted off of the show.
I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! continues tonight at 9pm on ITV.
