I’m A Celebrity ‘feud’ is revealed as Sam Thompson, Marvin Humes and Nick Pickard SNUB one of their campmates
An alleged I'm a celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! 'feud' has been revealed as Sam Thompson and Nick Pickard have snubbed one of the show's stars.
It has emerged that the pair have failed to follow third-placed Nigel Farage on social media, as has Sam's girlfriend Zara McDermott, who failed to do the same.
However, it seems there is no love lost as the former UKIP leader hasn't followed any of them either.
So far the GB News presenter has only followed EastEnders star Danielle Harold on Instagram, and she has returned the favour.
Other campmates and their loved ones also appear to have rejected Nigel, as Marvin Humes, his wife Rochelle and Nella Rose also do not follow him.

While Sam and Nick both took part in the show with Nigel, Sam's girlfriend Zara has also rejected him.
Nigel was met on the iconic I'm A Celebrity bridge by his French girlfriend Laure, and the pair flew home together.
Sam won the title of King of the Jungle of 2023 on Sunday by a landslide, according to the voting figures.
He came out on top with more than 50 per cent of the vote, beating boxer Tony Bellew, 41, who finished in second place, and Nigel, who came third.
ITV released two sets of figures showing the percentages for the top three before voting was frozen and later reopened for the final two.
In the first round, Sam secured 43.35 percent, ahead of Tony who received 30.87 percent and Nigel with 25.78 percent.
In the final voting, Sam's lead only increased as he received 56.64 percent of the viewer votes, beating Tony's 43.36 percent by a whopping 13 percent.
Sam has been the bookmakers' favorite to win in recent weeks after proving popular with ITV viewers.

Sam jumped into the arms of runner-up Tony as hosts Ant McPartlin and Declan Donnelly announced the results, before admitting he was 'blown away'.
He said: 'I'm really overwhelmed, I didn't even think I would be invited to the show. I don't know what to say.'
When asked what he had to say to those who voted for him, he tearfully said: “I'm so grateful, thank you so much.
'I have been dreaming of doing this show for years and you have made a childhood dream come true.'
Elsewhere, following his departure from the jungle, Nigel has criticized ITV boss Kevin Lygo and warned him not to go to 'war' with him, claiming he now knows there was a conspiracy at the top of the broadcaster to ' to bond with each other'. I'm a celebrity.
The politician left the jungle after reaching Sunday's final, but claims he has now learned that 'people at the top of ITV did their best to make my life quite unpleasant'.
Nigel came third in the reality show, defying critics and left-wingers who vowed to boycott the programme.
When he returned to Britain he said he was furious about a 'stitch-up' at ITV, including claims from them deliberately censored him, shortened his airtime and showed him naked several times. He also learned that Kevin Lygo allegedly made an obscene joke about him on stage while he was in the jungle.
The former UKIP leader has said television director Lygo should 'look at what happened' to Dame Alison Rose at NatWest – who was forced to quit after the Brexiteer was booted from the bench over his politics.
As he left Australia, he told GB News: 'It seems that when I was in the Jungle one or two people at the top of ITV did their best to make things unpleasant for me. What I say to ITV boss Kevin Lygo is up to you, mate. If you want to go to war with me, you really can. The last person to do that was Dame Alison Rose, from NatWest Bank, and look what happened to her.”
Mr Farage also heard of claims that Mr Lygo allegedly made an offensive one-handed gesture towards him at an event attended by stars Susanna Reid, Davina McCall and Lorraine Kelly in late November.
Joking about the sign language interpreter standing next to him on stage, Mr Lygo apparently said: “I don't know sign language, I only know Nigel Farage's sign.” Of the Brexiteer he later said: 'Don't worry, he knows he has to come home from Australia in a dinghy.'
Elsewhere, Nigel has criticized ITV boss Kevin Lygo and warned him not to 'go to war with him', claiming he now knows there was a conspiracy at the top of the broadcaster to 'stitch him together'.
Hitting back, Mr Farage said last night: 'I would suggest, Mr Lygo, that I am prepared to ignore your rude one-handed gestures, and the rude, pathetic attempts of your staff to stitch me up.
“I'm willing to forget it all if we can make a truce.” But if you really, really want to go to war with me, I don't think it will do the ITV share price much good.'
Around £840m was wiped from NatWest's share value after Dame Alison admitted sharing information about Mr Farage to the BBC.
Former Natwest CEO Dame Alison Rose was forced to resign from her role following the fallout from the banking row with Mr Farage.
Farage is not the first controversial politician to enter the Australian jungle, following Matt Hancock's appearance last year.
They experienced much the same journey in the programme, with the former Secretary of State for Health and Social Care also claiming third place.
