Andy Whyment had his own troubles with Janice Dickinson during his time on I’m a Celebrity… South Africa, and he now claims that the supermodel ‘abused’ hosts Ant McPartlin and Dec Donnelly.
On the all-stars edition of the programme, we witnessed Andy and Janice butting heads before both of their exits. Andy and Janice had a falling out when Janice claimed in a talk with Myleene Klass that Andy ‘never wanted to do anything for her,’ which he didn’t believe.
Andy, who plays Kirk Sutherland on Coronation Street, has now spoken out about her encounters with the show’s presenters.
‘I’m just a normal down to earth guy and I just don’t like it when people are rude.
‘When Ant and Dec came in early doors she was talking about what they were wearing and saying “you look terrible” and it’s like, these are the hosts of the show,’ Andy, 42, told The Sun.
‘These are massive stars in the UK and you’re just blatantly abusing them on national television.’
Andy said that Janice is a’very, extremely famous person,’ but that this was no justification for her rudeness because’manners cost nothing.’
He also made a comparison between Janice, 68, and his previous megastar campmate, Caitlyn Jenner. Andy stated that Caitlyn, who joined him in the jungle in 2019, ‘wasn’t harsh like Janice.’
‘I don’t know if it’s for the cameras or something. There were times when she was lying in bed and then Ant and Dec would come in and she’d jump up,’ Andy added.
Janice had to leave the programme for medical reasons after slipping while walking to the restroom in the dark, while Andy had to depart after failing a task.
Joe Swash, Helen Flanagan, Fatima Whitbread, Carol Vorderman, Phil Tufnel, Jordan Banjo, Myleene Klass, and Paul Burrell are still trying to become the first I’m a Celebrity legend on the pre-recorded programme.
I’m A Celebrity South Africa continues tonight on ITV1 and ITVX at 9pm.
