I’m A Celeb’s Andy Whyment names and shames celeb secretly acting up ‘for the cameras’ in camp
I’M A Celebrity…South Africa has gathered an all star cast for a second go at telly’s toughest show - and evicted campmate Andy Whyment reckons some of them are faking it.
The Coronation Street legend, 42, has opened up on his time in camp after leaving on Monday night’s show and has spilt the beans on his fellow celebrities.
Andy clashed with supermodel Janice Dickinson and has now pondered whether her “rude” behaviour was down to playing the game.
In an exclusive chat, Andy said: “I’m just a normal down to earth guy and I just don’t like it when people are rude.
“I was in the jungle with Caitlyn Jenner in 2019 and she’s a massive star and she wasn’t rude like Janice. I don’t think there’s any need for it.
“I don’t know if it’s for the cameras or something.

“There were times when she was lying in bed and then Ant and Dec would come in and she’d jump up.
“Then she’d be her usual loud self.
“If that’s her, then that’s her, but for me it was just a bit too much.”
Fellow campmate Shaun Ryder, 60, also reckoned a few of the group were hamming up their reactions to gain attention.

The Happy Mondays rocker pointed to Gillian McKeith and Paul Burrell.
Andy added: “I think the thing with Gillian was, I think she knew she was going to go - we all knew she wouldn’t be very good at trials.
“If you’re playing a game, it’s very hard to play a game in I’m A Celeb because there’s cameras on you 24/7.
“But if that was part of Gillian trying to get a bit of airtime, fair play to her.
“I just went in as myself like I normally am.”
Meanwhile Andy has opened up on what the future has in store for him on Coronation Street and his character Kirk.
Kirk is still reeling from his dramatic split with wife Beth after her betrayal with old flame Marco.
And he has revealed that Janice Dickinson “abused” I’m A Celeb hosts Ant and Dec in camp.
