I’m A Celebrity: David Ginola row left Louise Minchin in tears

Louise said it "came out of the blue"

I’m A Celebrity star David Ginola left Louise Minchin in tears following a spat in the castle.

Former BBC Breakfast host Louise left the show on Thursday and football legend David was voted out last night.

However, during Friday night’s show (December 10), David and Louise clashed as he told her to not be “too bossy” as camp leader.

However, David said: “Don’t go too bossy Louise. Don’t take your leadership too seriously. No, no, honestly. It’s fine… but take it down.”

Louise replied: “If we do that, we won’t eat.”

Now out of the castle, Louise has opened up about the incident and said she cried afterwards.

She told The Sun: “That row was one of the things that upset me on my last day.

“I’m a people pleaser, and it just kind of came out of the blue. I was having a bad day and then that happened and . . . I cried afterwards.”

She added: “Everyone has tough days in camp, and that was a tough day. Other things had already upset me. But that was the trigger that left me in tears. I was often a shoulder to cry on in the camp, but sometimes the shoulder needs a cry too.”

Louise went on to say that she found it hard watching David talk about their clash in The Telegraph.

She admitted that she wished she had “been able to Google how to manage David Ginola” because there must be “loads of really well-paid managers who’ve had to do just that”.
