Charlene is supposed to be sharing the RV and comfy beds with former Health Secretary Matt Hancock, as the pair were crowned as the camp leader and deputy.
I’m A Celebrity hosts Ant and Dec took to their Instagram live where Ant commented that he was going to have a word with the producers. The pair have claimed Charlene White is “rule breaking” by not sharing the RV with Matt Hancock and freeing up a bed in the camp.
During their Instagram live, Dec told their fans: “Can we talk about the hammock RV situation? Do you get it? I don’t”

Hide AdAnt also appeared confused by the journalist’s antics, adding: “Why would she not want to sleep in there? It can’t just be because of the spider. Does she not want to sleep with Matt, is it that?
“You’ve got to think of the others. If other people have to then sleep in a hammock because of your actions and have a bad back. Then you’ve got to look at your actions, don’t you?”
After one fan suggested it was against the rules, the Geordie duo agreed with viewers and Ant suggested that he would speak to producers about the issue.
The news of Charlene refusing to sleep in the RV meant that camp tensions continued to rise as celebrities clashed over bed allocations.

The camp pleaded with Charlene White to sleep in the RV and free up a bed, with Owen Warner begging the journalist so that there would be an extra bed for Seann.
Only the camp leaders are allowed to sleep in the RV, meaning Charlene and Matt Hancock are allowed to sleep in the beds.
Other celebrities also refused to give up their beds to offer respite to Seann Walsh, with Boy George refusing to swap his bed for a hammock.

During Wednesday night’s episode of I’m A Celebrity, Owen Warner offered to swap beds with Seann, with the pair coming to a deal to take sleeping in the hammock in turns.
