Josie in the Bush Telegraph said: ‘First it was Nigel Farage’s bum, now Marvin’s six pack… loads of surprises. Just don’t know what’s going to come next.’
During Monday’s show, Josie was left in hysterics as she was confronted by Nigel’ s bare bottom within hours of meeting him.
Television personality Nigel wasted no time in whipping his clothes off to have a wash, leaving his entire behind on show.
Walking through the camp, This Morning host Josie was stopped in her tracks as she set eyes on his cheeks, with the former Big Brother winner saying in the Bush Telegraph that she’s ‘seen worse’.
After the unexpected scenes, viewers took to X, formerly known as Twitter, to express their astonishment after witnessing the scenes unfold on television.
Josie in the Bush Telegraph said: ‘First it was Nigel Farage ‘s bum, now Marvin’s six pack… loads of surprises. Just don’t know what’s going to come next.’
Shocking! Television personality Nigel wasted no time in whipping his clothes off to have a wash, leaving his entire behind on show
Shocked viewers shared: ‘Totally didn’t need to see Nigel Farage’s bum on national tv’; ‘ ‘Wasn’t expecting to be facing Nigel Farage’s cheeks as I sat down with a cuppa’; ‘In no other country would you see a politician’s a** on national TV. WHAT’.
‘Why’ve I just seen nigel farage’s cheeks’; ‘Why am I seeing Nigel Farage’s bare a** cheeks on my screen’; ‘can’t believe I’ve just seen Nigel Farage’s a**’, the comments went on.
I’m A Celebrity has reportedly been hit by a behind-the-scenes row over Nigel Farage’s airtime on the show.
Sources claim that crew members are questioning whether Nigel is getting ‘too much screentime’, with the politician aware of the moves he has to take to get more exposure on the show.
A source told The Sun : ‘The jungle shower is always a big scene but I don’t think anyone expected Farage to be first out the gate, nor to do so with such aplomb.
‘The crew are feeling torn. They’re all professionals and everyone can recognise Farage makes great telly but, of course, many harbour their own opinions on Brexit and immigration.
‘And on a wider level it’s left bosses with something of a dilemma — embrace Farage as the star of the show or stay conscious of the outcry over his casting and limit his airtime.’
I’m A Celebrity…Get Me Out of Here! continues Thursday at 9pm on ITV1 and ITVX.
