The YouTuber, 26, and This Morning presenter, 38, looked on at the men in camp gathering firewood and doing chores while they lay in their hammocks.
The two shared a giggle as they expressed their relief at being able to relax while the likes of Marvin Humes and Nigel Farage were busy at work.
Nella wondered if it was just because those in camp were ‘older men’, admitting ‘men my age’ would refuse.

One said: ‘if someone said to Nella that she should be cleaning and cooking, she’d be livid. double standards #imaceleb.’
