I’m A Celeb viewers fumed on Sunday night as Nella Rose sparked a sexism row with her comments about ‘real men’.
The Youtuber came in for criticism after she talked about feminist revolutionaries the Suffragettes as she talked about how the male campmates like Sam Thompson, Nigel Farage and Marvin Humes did all the wood gathering and cooking without complaint while her and Josie Gibson just sat around.
Nella told Josie: “The men get the wood. Modern men are there moaning why can’t we go 50/50. These are real men. They’re what a real man should be. They’re hunting, cooking, we can just sit here. Herculean vibes.”

Josie Gibson agreed: “They’ve restored my faith in men. They’re absolute gentlemen.”
Some viewers were extremely unhappy with Nella’s comments as they swore to switch off just four minutes into the episode on Sunday, November 26.
