Jockey Frankie Dettori speaks out about Nigel Farage breaking camp rules
Frankie Dettori, the first celebrity to be voted off I'm A Celebrity, has opened up about Nigel Farage breaking a major camp rule, despite being warned by show bosses. In an exclusive interview with The Celeb Report, Dettori revealed that Farage's naked showers went against the protocol set by the producers.
Keeping swimmers on
Dettori explained that all the celebrities were instructed to keep their swimwear on while taking showers. However, Farage chose to disregard this rule. The jockey admitted that he and the other campmates were unaware of Farage's au naturel moment, as the shower area was located far away from the main camp. Dettori emphasized that he had no interest in spying on Farage's activities.
A bond in the jungle
Dettori and Farage had a close bond during their time on the show, having known each other before entering the jungle. Dettori praised Farage, describing him as funny, interesting, and knowledgeable. Despite the political debates that took place among the celebrities, Dettori claimed that he did not feel any tension and was not involved in those discussions. As a non-politician, he simply did not care about the political debates happening around him.
Stripping away celebrity status
According to Dettori, being in the jungle together stripped away the celebrities' status and allowed them to see each other as regular human beings. He highlighted that the lack of makeup and the rough living conditions created a level playing field for all the campmates. Dettori emphasized that they all worked hard and formed a strong bond, despite their different backgrounds and careers.
