JUNGLE BULLIES MADE ME WALK

MOUTHY jungle toff Lady Colin Campbell last night revealed the true shocking reason she left TV’s I’m a Celebrity.

And she fired off explosive claims against two of her showbiz campmates.

LADY Colin Campbell finally told last night of the jungle hell that forced her out of TV’s I’m A Celebrity camp.

Telly bosses fixed the show to make her look like an evil witch with a poison tongue, she told pals.

Viewers accused her of bullying the other celebs while all the time she was the bullying victim.

She endured 19 nightmare days at the hands of her telly “enemies” Duncan Bannatyne, 66, and Tony Hadley, 55.

And she had also suffered severe discomfort after a nasty fall on the show which had made a medical condition worse.

Last night the controvers­ial toff vowed “never again”. She was already talking to lawyers about the cruel attacks on her, she confided to friends. She told them: “I have never been a quitter but there is only so much a person can take.

“I have developed a very thick skin and can cope better than most people with tough situations.

“But there came a time when I just had to go.”

She branded Spandau Balley star Tony an “a***hole” and “chippy oik with a mouth of diarrhoea”.

And she labelled former Dragons’ Den star Duncan a “vain old goat” who is “desperate for the limelight.” Lady C walked out of the camp early yesterday morning with ITV insisting she went on “medical grounds”.

Duncan and Tony have dismissed her remarks as “pure fantasy”.

TV insiders told the Daily Star that Lady C spent hours in the Bush Telegraph begging producers to call her lawyers after logging “endless” complaints about the duo’s behaviour.

Lady C arrived back at the plush Versace hotel on Australia’s Gold Coast yesterday lunchtime.

Since then, she has been shut in her room with son Dima, 22, with security guards outside her door.

But spokesmen for both Duncan and Tony yesterday urged the public to wait to hear both sides of the story.

Tony’s representa­tive said: “These allegation­s are pure fantasy, the whole nation has witnessed how Lady C has continuall­y made vile and hurtful comments towards various campmates.

“To make accusation­s of bullying and biased editing is unbelievab­le and disrespect­s both the show, and the millions of fans who have tuned in and voted night after night.”

And a spokesman for Duncan added: “We have every confidence in ITV’s editorial judgments.

“We expect that viewers will have seen a fair and balanced portrayal of events and we all look forward to hearing Duncan and Tony’s side of the story when they leave the camp.”
