I’m A Celebrity: Naughty Boy and Kadeena Cox come to blows over ‘stressful’ dinner

Some campmates left to avoid the row

I’m A Celebrity stars Naughty Boy and Kadeena Cox came to blows tonight (November 30) as the series returned following a three-day hiatus.

Trouble started brewing after Kadeena and Arlene Phillips returned from the trial having won 10 stars.

Ingredients for dinner were delivered into camp, with the celebrities dining on oxtail.

Celebrity MasterChef champion Kadeena took a step back from the stove tonight, with Naughty Boy in charge of the meals.

What happened between Naughty Boy and Kadeena on I’m A Celebrity?

I’m A Celebrity star Naughty Boy started cooking and told Kadeena: “Just chill.”

Kadeena told him: “You know I’m such a do-er.”

But EastEnders star Adam Woodyatt urged her to “let someone cook for you tonight”.

However, she soon started to give Naughty cooking tops, and he didn’t react favourably.

“Kadeena please, I’m just working it out,” he said, before turning to Snoochie Shy.

I’ve never cut oxtail. Before I’ve even got into it Kadeena’s telling me: ‘Naughty you need to…’,” he said.

However, Kadeena heard his grumbles and declared: “If he’s going to moan about it, just say it to me. I was just trying to help.”

Naughty Boy replied: “The thing is, before I’ve even cut it, you’re telling me what to do.”

Kadeena countered: “I was just letting you know there was a bone that was going to be hard to get through. I’m cool not helping, I was just like, whatever,” she stated.

Turning to Snoochie, he asked: “That’s not rude is it? I don’t want her to take it the wrong way.”

“It’s cool,” Kadeena declared.

How did the other I’m A Celebrity stars react?

However, the other stars picked up on the tension.

David Ginola later tried to help and Naughty Boy said: “This is what they say about too many chefs in the kitchen, isn’t it?”

Matty Lee then went outside and said: “It’s quite stressful being around the [cooks] isn’t it.”

Louise Minchin said: “Sometimes you just need to get out of the kitchen.”

Matty agreed: “When you’re not involved, just leave.”

Ever the professional, after eating the meal, Kadeena praised Naughty on his cooking skills.

Kadeena said: “Well done, it’s nice mate. That’s it, I’m retiring.”

Naughty Boy replied: “No please don’t say that.”

How did viewers react?

It’s fair to say they were very much Team Kadeena.

“Naughty Boy is such a moannnnyyyyyyyyyy whinger,” said one viewer.

“I feel a tantrum coming on,” said another.

“Too many chefs in the kitchen makes you be voted for a trial,” said a second, as news was announced Naughty will face the next trial.

A third declared: “Naughty Boy is just so touchy over everything. You can’t offer him advice because thats wrong and then he moans to others about that person daring to help. He seems very immature.”

“I really don’t wanna say this but Naughty Boy is not doing himself any favors. He has not endeared himself to the public at all,” said another.

“Naughty Boy = Cook, Argue, Sleep, Repeat,” said another.

“Not sure why Naughty Boy is sounding off. He’s never cooked nor handled oxtail before but Kadeena has. He clearly said he’s never cut oxtail, yet she was merely trying to help him out. The man’s got cloth ears,” another declared.

“We’re voting Naughty Boy out first, right?” said another.

“Yep, if he doesn’t strop out before!” another quipped.
