I’m A Celebrity fans slam ‘fake’ contestant and claim they’re acting up for camera time

I’M A Celebrity fans have insisted Paul Burrell is acting up for camera time following his first trial and arrival in camp.

The former butler, 64, left viewers cringing with his shrill screams and royal name-dropping in the spin-off show’s launch episode.

To be fair on Paul, he was forced to put his hand in box of snakes and let out a huge roar when he was being bitten.

Paul was trying to find a key in order to win a meal for his first night in camp and faced the trial with Shaun Ryder and Janice Dickinson.

All three of them managed to earn their stars.

Later, he was overheard talking about his former employer Princess Diana.

One fan said on Twitter: “It took Paul Burrell approximately 0.55 seconds before he mentioned Diana.”

A second fumed: “Oh was Paul Burrell Princess Diana’s butler??? He never mentioned it!”

“Paul Burrell is back because it’s what Diana would have wanted……” joked a fourth.

It comes as Helen Flanagan opened up on her terror as she faced last night’s challenge.

The stomach-churning challenge saw the soap star face her fear of heights, but many fans claimed she “faked her fear.”

Helen has since taken to social media telling fans she was “so scared” during last night’s high-stakes trial and that her emotions were real.

She shared a clip of her watching the trial alongside her daughter Matilda, seven and said: “Mummy was so scared.

“I did it because I didn’t want you to say ‘oh mummy didn’t do it’.

“But honestly darling I was absolutely scared – I didn’t faint but I did it because I knew Matilda would want to watch me do this.

“I did it but I really didn’t want to.”

She captioned the clip: “I absolutely hate heights.”
