Vicky Pattinson speaks out after being accused of throwing I'm A Celebrity crown

Some said Vicky wasn't happy with the new winner

Published 6th Dec 2016

Vicky Pattison has hit back at critics who accused her 'throwing' her I’m A Celebrity crown at Gogglebox’s Scarlett Moffatt when Ant and Dec announced her as the winner.

As the current Queen of the jungle, Vicky was given the role to knight Scarlett after she beat off competition from Joel Dommett and Emmerdale star Adam Thomas. But some viewers believed the former Geordie Shore star was a little sour at handing over her title…

After many online trolls sent her abusive messages, it seems Vicky had enough of the negative abuse and tweeted her feelings about the situation.

Since joining the panel for I’m A Celebrity: Extra Camp, last year’s champion has had a tough time on the show and received criticism for her blunders.

On one of the first episodes of the show, Vicky mistakenly called it Xtra Factor instead of Extra Camp whilst talking to a caller.

The reality star then made another blunder when she mixed up 2016 contestant Jordan Banjo for his brother Ashley.

Despite her blunders, the show seems to have been a hit with most fans. Despite this, it’s not yet been confirmed if Vicky will be retuning on next year’s show alongside her fellow presenters Chris Ramsey, Stacey Solomon and Joe Swash.

As we have to wait a WHOLE YEAR for the next series of I’m A Celebrity, lets re-live the hilarious (and in our opinion) the best trial of the series, The Celebrity Cyclone!
