FORMER I’m A Celebrity star Vicki Michelle has opened up about her opinion on how bosses edit the show to make certain campmates look bad.
The actress, 73, took part in the fourteenth series of the ITV show back in 2014.
The soap star was the fourth star to be eliminated for the show, which was later won by Carl Fogarty.
During the series, Jake Quickenden and Jimmy Bullard developed a bromance, but at one point the stars clashed on our screens.
Vicki explained that tensions run high in camp because everyone is hungry, but their argument looked a lot different on TV to how it was in real life.
Speaking to The Sun on behalf of Slots Calendar, Vicki said: “You don’t see the full thing.
“You know, it was a bit like Jimmy Bullard and Jake Quickenden.
“They showed them having a bit of a spat together. But it wasn’t.
“It was like blokey banter, you know. It depends how they cut it and how it came out because Jimmy went after that.
“But I think they were both – they both had goes at each other, boys banter, whatever it is.
“You know, so I think that can happen.
“As you say, it is how it’s edited and they edit to get a reaction from the people at home, for sure.”
Jake and Jimmy clashed when the X Factor star told the former English footballer that Vicki had mistaken Jimmy for Michael Buerk.
Jimmy wasn’t impressed and told him: “Alright, f**king He-Man. Just ‘cos you’re all f**king muscles.”
But Jake wanted to continue pressing his buttons.
He cheekily replied: “You bite so quick. You don’t come back with anything.
“You get nasty. You get nasty, don’t you?
“It don’t matter. I understand, it’s fine.”
A furious Jimmy said: “You’re calling me a 68-year-old man. That’s nasty in a way. It ain’t affecting me.
“You’re out of your league son, you’re out of your depth. It’s embarrassing.”
When asked if they think that they are more careful about the edit now, to create less friction, Vicki confessed: “I’m not sure that they are because it banks for good telly. Yeah.
“You know, so I think maybe they’ll let those bits go, you know, and you’ll see like sort of – because I think, you know, Jimmy was, you know, going to win without a doubt.
“And it was only when that band came out that they – yeah, the audience voted him out. That was after that.
“So yeah, I think they should be a bit careful.
“They probably are a bit careful because that was a bit – wow, that was a big reaction for one of the favourites to go out at that time.
“So I think they – yeah, I think they would edit it better now.”
