I’m A Celebrity viewers brand show a fix as they claim TWO stars are being favoured in bid to win
I’M A Celebrity viewers have accused show bosses of ‘favouring’ two campmates in a bid to ‘fix’ the competition.
Fans of the ITV show were left claiming the stars were given ‘extra air time’ during the family reunion special.
Both Danny Jones and Coleen Rooney were paid a visit by their sons in the jungle and cried as they hugged them for the first time in more than three weeks.
McFly star Danny was first up with a surprise appearance from his six-year-old son Cooper and his wife Georgia.
Coleen was later left gobsmacked after finding her mum Colette sat in the Leaders’ Lodge thrones.
Moments later, her youngest sons Kit, eight, and six-year-old Cass came strolling out from between the trees.
After an emotional reunion. Coleen showed the trio around the camp and even took them to the dunny and into the Bush Telegraph.
In comparison, Coronation Street star Alan Halsall sat on a rock in a clearing for a chat with his brother, while GK Barry briefly spoke to her mum by the rock pool.
Reverend Richard Coles was able to catch up with his brother in the jungle and Oti Mabuse was met by her husband – but their baby wasn’t there.
But taking to X, formerly known as Twitter, one fan complained: “Why does Danny get 2 visitors and twice as long as anyone else…or twice the airtime? Come on @ITV youre over egging the Danny to win fix #ImACeleb.”
Another added: “I know it’s petty but I don’t like that Danny & Coleen got more than one family member go in… Feels biased. I bet they make the top 2.”
And a third said: “I’m A Celebrity, that’s so not fair at all to have MORE than one person for a celebrity!! It was always just one! Coleen had THREE for goodness sake!!”
At the end of Friday night’s show, another two celebrities were given the boot.
Alan Halsall and GK Barry were told they had received the least public votes and were sent packing.
The four remaining campmates are Danny, Coleen, Oti Mabuse and Reverend Richard Coles.
On Saturday night, the foursome will be seen taking on the iconic Celebrity Cyclone challenge in this year’s semi-final.
The following night, this year’s King or Queen of the jungle will be crowned.
