Julia Morris is sick, and she is blaming a fellow Gold Logie nominee.
The I’m A Celebrity host attended the Logie nominations last week – where she was nominated for the top award – and fell ill shortly after.
The 56-year-old was quick to point the finger at Larry Emdur, who is also up for the gold, who she posed next to at the event.
‘Larry, I think you gave me the man flu. All that air kissing at the Gold Logie day did us both in,’ she wrote on Instagram.
‘How is the coughing? Hoik-ter big time. Hope you are on the mend (the sick snap of me is from last Thursday. Took to the bed.) I am very much on the mend)’.
Larry was quick to reply in the comments, joking: ‘My Darling Julia, you can’t live in the jungle for three months eating rhinoceros scrotum, snake arseholes and lama snot then blame me for making you feel unwell.
‘Hopefully you get well soon, hopefully you don’t have to pull out of the Gold Logie race, although I would give you $200 (cash) to do that’.
Julia also posed next to Robert Irwin on the day, but he appears to have avoided the bug.

In March, Morris revealed the ‘creepy’ question she is often asked about her new IAC co-host Robert.
The veteran presenter of the jungle-themed reality show expressed her frustration at being regularly questioned about whether she would be flirting with Robert, 20.
‘That would be creepy. It’s a question I got the whole way through the last four months,’ she told news.com.au.
Julia also said that the dynamic would be different to the cheeky rapport she had with Dr Chris Brown, who left the reality show for a Channel Seven gig last year.
‘I keep saying to everybody, don’t put icing on the cake while it’s still in the oven, because it’s still growing…I don’t feel like I’m mothering over Robert. I feel like I’m evenly matched,’ she said.

It comes after Julia recently gushed about Robert and had nothing but good things to say about her young co-host.
Speaking to Triple M WA’s Robbie Von, Julia opened up about her ‘special bond’ with the young Wildlife Warrior.
‘Whatever I thought I knew about Robert Irwin, well, I can just like quadruple it with absolute brilliance,’ she said.
‘I mean, we’re actually longstanding friends, but we’ve spend lots of time together, certainly over the last few months preparing to go to the jungle.’
