Kerri-Anne Kennerley talks her shock exit on I’m a Celeb and says there was ‘selective editing’

Kerri-Anne Kennerley has spoken about her time in the jungle on I’m a Celebrity…Get Me Out of Here! after her shock exit and clash with rival Domenica Calarco.

The TV icon, 69, appeared on Hughesy, Ed and Erin from 2DayFM this week, claiming there was “selective editing” in the show.

When asked if she “regrets leaving” the show, Kerri-Anne said firmly, “What people didn’t see was the most horrible thing and I think people would be shocked with selective editing.”

She added, “I don’t need to be tricked or coerced and that’s all I have to say.”

Kerri-Anne made a sensational exit from the jungle after Domenica Calarco of Married At First Sight branded her “the most self-absorbed b**** she’s ever met” during a fiery argument.

It later transpired that Dom also called KAK a “c**t” for refusing to participate in an eating challenge – even though this moment was cut from the air.

In conversation with The Daily Telegraph Sydney Confidential shortly after her departure, Kerri-Anne was upset about quitting within the show’s first week, but “loved” living in the camp with some of the “fantastic” famous faces.

“I’m very disappointed I couldn’t stay,” she said, adding that the challenges were tough.

Kerri-Anne admitted that she had never camped before and “never wanted to” until she went into the jungle, but noted that she learned a lot about camping life.

She also addressed Dom’s “hurtful” comments before leaving.

“I’m a tough old bird, but that doesn’t mean what people say isn’t hurtful,” she added.

“I also wanted the camp to know that I’m not a terrible person. But you can’t be sorry, because that’s not how life works.’

The TV veteran’s time on the series came to an end after just four days in the South African jungle.

The drama unfolded when Kerri-Anne and Domenica along with former Australian Idol judge Ian ‘Dicko’ Dickson and radio presenter Woody Whitelaw took part in an eating challenge, where they had to eat several animal testicles to win the dinner for the rest of the competition . group.

In the challenge, a tennis racket was spun in the middle of a table, and whoever it landed on had to eat one of the jungle treats.

At the end of the challenge, the team was offered 13 stars if they all ate the ball of a kudu, a type of large antelope.

But Kerri-Anne was having none of it, even after the celebs told her it “tastes just like meatballs” and “wasn’t that bad.”

This caused Dom to see red after she took a bite and Kerri-Anne refused.

“Miss big contract lady, “Can’t tell me what to do.” I don’t want you (makeup), I don’t want your Revlon 1989 lipstick, pop,” she raged.

“It’s not fair — it’s not fair to anyone who actually tries. Why are you here, brother? Legit, actually, why are you here?!’

She then accused the Studio 10 star of having no respect or decency for anyone but herself.

“Literally no respect or decency for anyone but yourself. I’ve never met anyone so self-centered in my life,’ Dom continued.

When she returned to camp, Kerri-Anne said Dom’s “abuse” was “overwhelming.”

“To be called the most self-centered bitch she’s ever met. And again and again the contract queen. i would be ready [the challenge], if she would have ended. It would never happen,” she said in tears.

Angered at having to do three trials in a row, Kerri-Anne told her campmates she was leaving.

“I made a choice, it was a difficult choice. Because I’d like to stay. But it’s never going to work. I thought it was very unfair. I have three tests in a row,’ she said.

Speaking to News.com.au, Dom said she privately asked the producers to pass on her apology to Kerri-Anne.
