ITV I'm A Celebrity's Jane Moore sparks conspiracy theory over 'salty' behaviour

Fans of ITV's I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! have sparked a conspiracy theory that Jane Moore is acting up for attention. The Loose Women star, 62, hasn't had much airtime despite being one of the original ten stars of the 2024 season.

While she's been there to offer advice and comfort, she hasn't been chosen for any trials. On the other hand, radio host Dean McCullough has been in the spotlight as he's frequently nominated for trials.

However, Sunday night's highlights showed changes in camp that left some viewers questioning why Jane was suddenly acting grumpy. Boxing legend Barry McGuigan and McFly's Danny Jones were chosen as new camp leaders. As part of their duties, they had to assign tasks to the other stars, reports the Mirror.

But when they told Jane she was responsible for washing up, she became irritable. She quickly accused the boys of sexism - and when Barry said he wanted to give her an easier task because of her age, she called him ageist. For the rest of the episode, Jane complained about having to wash dishes.

Some viewers, however, think she may have been trying to provoke anger from viewers in hopes they would then nominate her for a trial. Fans have taken to social media with mixed reactions to the latest happenings in I'm A Celebrity...Get Me Out Of Here!, particularly concerning contestant Jane.

One viewer expressed on X: "Well Jane really wants to do a trial so maybe this will get her what she wants #ImACeleb." However, some are concerned that Jane's less-than-pleased response to camp chores might turn fans against her.

The sentiment was echoed by another fan who posted, "Not loving Jane after that... Danny and Barry were so excited to be camp leaders and genuinely wanted to make them all happy and now they just feel deflated #teamdanny #ImACeleb." Criticism didn't stop there, as another tweet read, "Aren't people getting sick of Dean doing the challenges? ? He's not entertaining, who keeps voting him? ! And Jane, you ruined Barry and Danny's mood, of course they're depleted! #ImACeleb."

The debate heated up with one user commenting on Instagram, "Jane pulling the sexist card because she doesn't want to clean lmfao give me a break #imaceleb." Frustration also grew around Dean being selected for trials repeatedly, with a viewer remarking on Facebook, "Dean has done EVERY TRIAL SINCE IT STARTED. it's genuinely not funny anymore. he's probably going to not get a lot of stars (or any) (again). vote for Jane (so she stops moaning as much)! or Danny! or Maura! i'm genuinely angry."
