RYLAN Clark Neal and Stacey Solomon have spoken out in defence of Iain Lee after he was targeted by Dennis Wise in tonight’s I’m A Celebrity.

While viewers were outraged, some famous fans have also spoken out following the nasty row – which saw Jamie Lomas eventually take on the challenge.

Rylan tweeted: “NEVER thought I’d say these words but....

“I wish I was in the jungle for that.... would of had a right pipe up.”

Former jungle queen Stacey told her followers: “Was anyone else hoping no stars were won in that trial? I like Jamie but I wanted Iain to feel like he could have done it better!”

After their argument, Dennis defended his comments to Iain and said he “wasn’t being malicious”.

Speaking to Amir Khan, Dennis explained: “Maybe it came across in the wrong manner, I didn’t want to be rude about it.

“I tried to say it as it was and that was nothing malicious or nasty or whatever, I just said what I said.

“He was trying to make me feel bad about it.”

Amir felt he was too hard on the dad-of-two however and said in the Bush Telegraph: “I think he was a little too hard.

“Dennis should have said it a bit nicer to Iain.”
