What happened between Fred and Nella on tonight’s I’m A Celebrity?

Nella made it very clear that she was not talking to Fred when he tried to offer her rice.

In the Bush Telegraph Nella explained: “Last night after dinner Fred made a comment about him basically how he could be my dad. I took offence to that because one of the first conversations we had together was me opening up about the fact that my dad’s passed away.”

Fred realised Nella was being off with him and approached her. She then asked him to leave her alone. Instead of doing so, Fred wanted to know what he’d done.

Nella then told him how she was feeling: “You know that my mum’s dead, and you know that my dad’s dead. You know that, right? I’ve come to find out that every time I wanna get creative around the fire, or I want to have something my way, my own food that I am entitled to, my way, you tend to get an attitude, right?

“So yesterday,” she carried on, “you turned around to me, with an attitude and said, ‘You know I could be your dad, right?’ To me, I don’t care how you said it to me, it’s disrespectful and I don’t want to talk to you. I don’t want to be around you. I only allow people to disrespect me once.
