Tensions have escalated in the I’m A Celebrity camp as Ruby Wax voiced concerns about growing divisions among the contestants. During a recent community meeting, she candidly mentioned, “we’re divided,” reflecting the increasing rifts that seem to have developed since the appointment of Aitch as camp leader and Angry Ginge as deputy.
Emerging Feuds in the Camp
Ruby expressed her apprehensions regarding Aitch and Ginge’s leadership style. She questioned their approach, suggesting that it felt more like a power dynamic than a collaborative effort. “Are we playing king and deputy, and we’re the low people?” she asked, revealing her discomfort with their authority.
Ruby’s Concerns
While revisiting her feelings in the Bush Telegraph, Ruby emphasized her fear, stating, “I think we’re divided.” This reflects a significant shift, as just prior to their leadership roles, she had a friendly rapport with both Aitch and Ginge.
- Ruby feels intimidated by the new leadership.
- She previously felt more comfortable under Vogue and Tom’s guidance.
In an attempt to reassure Ruby, Aitch responded that his new role did not change much except for the chores he was no longer responsible for. But Ruby stood firm in her belief that the atmosphere had shifted, remarking, “No, but there’s a vibe…”
Group Dynamics and Trust Issues
The conflict didn’t end with Ruby’s comments. Jack also raised concerns about Ginge’s honesty. After Ginge claimed to have only won five stars in a recent trial, Jack communicated his doubts, saying, “I know this isn’t intentional Ginge but it got in my head about how well you played.” This revelation added another layer of distrust within the group.
Friendships and Rivalries
Ginge, known for his popularity as a social media sensation with five million followers, is forming close bonds with fellow campmates, including Ruby Wax, 72. His friendship with Aitch, 25, which predates their time in the jungle, might have influenced their camp dynamics, leading to speculation about precamp discussions aimed at supporting one another.
- Ginge’s popularity stems from his online persona as “Angryginge13.”
- He has developed a strong camaraderie with Aitch.
Freddy Doneorrell, Ginge’s friend, noted how their mutual chemistry was likely helping them in the competition. He mentioned, “When you’ve got two real mates with that kind of chemistry and mutual respect, it just gives them both a boost.”
As the camp experiences these growing tensions and shifting alliances, viewers are left wondering how these dynamics will unfold in the coming episodes of I’m A Celebrity. Tune in tonight at 9 PM on ITV1, STV, ITVX, and STV Player for the latest updates.
