And now Shaun seems to be insinuating that both Gillian and former butler Paul Burrell, 64, are in fact standing up for the public.
Viewers were sure sparks would fly when the singer came face to face with his former nemesis Gillian, 13 years after he first appeared together in the main series.
However, he told The sun“I’ve run into Gillian at least 10 times over the past 12 years with her kids, with my kids, and I thought we were all good.”

Despite this, he said the TV nutritionist wanted to “take the fight” with him as soon as she set foot in the camp.
He also discussed Gillian sneaking contraband into the jungle, stating it was “typical” for the TV star, before joking that her 2010 episode of passing out was “a load of assholes.”
He also seemingly suggested that Paul Burrell’s overreaction to trials may not have been sincere.
Telling the publication, “I like Paul Burrell, but at the end of the day, Paul is from a pit village. Paul’s father was a miner, Paul is tough as nails’.
It comes after Shaun revealed that he has lost two stone using Ozempic since leaving the show, but claims that those using it for the sake of vanity “need professional help.”
He admitted to taking the controversial weight-loss contraceptive injection, a drug used for type 2 diabetes.
Telling The Sun he chose the medication because his underactive thyroid made losing weight extremely difficult.
Shaun, who has an underactive thyroid and alopecia, has taken the appetite suppressant jab for obesity.

By injecting it into his stomach, Shaun has been able to resume his favorite hobby, cycling.
However, he added that others relying on it should seek “professional help.”
The drug has become a trend in Hollywood for weight loss — and has been criticized by some for fear it could fuel eating disorders
Ozempic and rival jab Wegovy have exploded in popularity after being the first drugs proven to help with weight loss.
Those who have admitted to using it include Chelsea Handler and Elon Musk, who lost 30 pounds on the drug.
Meanwhile, some suspect the Kardashian sisters — like Kim and Khloe — have been using it, too.
Khloe has denied doing this, but Kim has never commented on the suspicions.
Shaun added: “Ultimately it’s up to them, but there are probably a lot of physical issues there. I think most Kardashians need professional help.
‘For me it’s great; It actually gives me a bit of energy, so now we’re going to cycle again.’

Original Appearance: Shaun appeared in the 2010 series I’m A Celebrity…Get Me Out Of Here
On Friday, Shaun, Phil Tufnell and Andy Whyment left the Savannah Scrub and headed to Main Camp, where they found out they would take part in the series’ first survival trial.
Each chose a different celebrity to do it with them, and the losing pair would leave camp for good – with Shaun choosing former nemesis Gillian.
In the process, the couples were handcuffed together and made to retrieve keys and wrenches from three boxes – filled with creepy critters – in an attempt to free themselves.
However, Gillian refused to put her in the first box because she was afraid of the snakes inside, leading her and Shaun to be the first to leave camp, with fans chanting that the nutritionist “didn’t even try” to win the task.
Phil, along with Georgia Toffolo, got off to a flying start, they were followed closely by Andy and Jordan Banjo.
Fans took to Twitter to express their disappointment at Shaun’s departure, after he was previously tipped to be crowned king of the jungle.
While others labeled Gillian “annoying” and said she acted and feigned fear on camera.
One wrote, “Poor Shaun. Glad Gillian is gone. Irritating Woman” and “Beautiful obvs Gillian didn’t even try, framed poor Shaun”
