Ant and Dec accused of ‘faking’ major I’m A Celebrity moment

Ant McPartlin and Declan Donnelly have been accused of ‘faking’ a huge I’m A Celebrity moment, and fans are not happy.

The Britain’s Got Talent presenters, both 48, fronted the final episode of this series on Wednesday, as the campmates reunited for I’m A Celebrity Coming Out.

But some viewers spotted something which seemed a little suspicious, and called the duo out over it.

After Sam Thompson was crowned King of the Jungle, Ant and Dec opened the envelope in which they’d predicted who would win at the start of the series.

‘The most important moment of the whole series I think,’ Dec said.

And they were both applauded after it was revealed their envelopes held Sam’s name, with Ant declaring: ‘I did see that coming, which is why I wrote it down!’

But viewers noticed something was up when just days ago, they had opened an envelope on Instagram Live, which held Josie Gibson’s name in their top spot.

The This Morning presenter finished the series as the last woman standing, eliminated just before the final.

While Ant had Sam’s name in third place, Dec had predicted Danielle Harold and Marvin Humes would make up the final three with Josie.

‘We’re terrible,’ Ant laughed at the time, while Dec joked that Josie had let them down.

‘How come @antanddec’s predictions on #ImACeleb coming out show were Sam when I saw on jungle club on Instagram live just after the final and they both predicted Josie?’ one suspicious fan @SophieSharpie wrote.

‘Ant and Dec doing these predictions but going live after the show and not one of them guessed Sam was going to win is the funniest fake thing I’ve ever seen. Both of them said Josie,’ @courtdegnan added.

‘I don’t get it. Why did they just say ant and dec predicted Sam would win but here they put Josie? Wtf,’ @East_ said.

This isn’t the first time Ant and Dec have come under fire this series, as some viewers were left fuming when they discovered it was their fault Nigel Farage was invited onto the show.

They later changed their minds though, as, when asked about Rishi Sunak following in Matt Hancock and Nigel Farage’s footsteps in the future, Dec said: ‘I think we do a year without any politicians.’

‘Agreed, agreed, agreed,’ replied Ant.
