I'm A Celebrity viewers were stunned last night as Nella slammed the First Dates host as a "weirdo" and told him they would "never be friends".

It came after Fred offended Nella - who lost both her parents - by saying he was old enough to be her father.

Nella is facing huge backlash over the short-tempered exchange - and Good Morning Britain presenter Richard is convinced it's because she's hungry.

His GMB co-star Susanna said today: "It just shows that you're in there for a couple of days, you haven't had enough to eat."

Richard added: "That's the point, you haven't had enough to eat, honestly."

Susanna,: "Richard, you just mentioned there, the hanger [hungry and angry] that you get because of course you were in the castle."

Richard was forced to leave I'm A Celebrity 2021 in Wales after ten days following a minor health scare and breaking the covid bubble.

"It could have that you were hungry, then?", Susanna suggested.

Richard replied: "It might have been. It was low blood sugar and dehydration.

"When you're in there, you are very consciously controlling your ill temper.

"You are ill tempered when you're hungry. I imagine with something like this, emotional with her father, it's made Nella burst."

Nellae revealed how both of her parents died within the space of just four years of each other.

In 2016, the popular YouTuber told fans that her mother Eseho Omolongo had "passed away in her arms".

It hasn't been revealed what her cause of death was, but Nella told her followers that her mum had "been ill for a long time".

She has not gone into detail about her father's death.
