I’m A Celebrity’s Nigel Farage BROKE show rules despite warnings from producers and family members

Nigel Farage has broken a show rule during his time on I’m A Celebrity. 

ITV have come under fire for ‘limiting the outspoken MP’s airtime’ after angry fans vowed to boycott the show due to his involvement. 

Yet while Nigel has divided viewers, he has ultimately proved to be an endless source of entertainment in camp. 

One moment in particular occurred within hours of entering camp, when he flashed his bare bottom in the jungle shower, much to the surprise of Josie Gibson. 

Yet while it may have left both viewers and Josie in hysterics, former campmate Frankie Dettori has revealed that his nudity was in breach of the rules, with show bosses telling the stars to keep their underwear on. 

Nigel Farage has broken a show rule during his time on I’m A Celebrity, stripping off after show bosses told the stars to keep their underwear on

One moment in particular occurred within hours of entering camp, when he flashed his bare bottom in the jungle shower, much to the surprise of Josie Gibson 

Speaking after he became the first star to be voted out of the Jungle on Sunday, Frankie admitted he was bewildered to learn Nigel’s bare bottom had been viewed by millions.

‘Furious’ Team Farage have also slammed ITV with a legal letter accusing the channel of breaking an ‘indecency’ clause by filming him naked in the jungle shower.

But speaking to MailOnline, Frankie said: ‘Really? The shower is miles away from the camp so we didn’t know what was going on, I’m not going to spy on Nigel’s butt.

‘Really? We were told to keep our swimmers on!’

Nigel’s 18-year-old daughter Izzy has also spoken out about the nudity, admitting his family warned him about washing naked in the camp.

When asked how she felt about millions seeing her father nude, she told MailOnline: ‘We did warn him! We did say people get filmed in the shower. 

‘But, hey, he’s a confident guy, he’s confident in himself so fair play, fair play.’ 

Despite warnings from producers and loved ones, Nigel hasn’t been deterred from stripping off. 

Days after Josie caught a glimpse of his bottom in the Jungle shower, Nigel stripped off for a nude bath, with Danielle Harold catching him in the act.

Nigel Farage’s daughter Izzy, 18, told MailOnline that she warned her ‘body confident’ father not to strip naked on I’m A Celeb as she touched down at Brisbane Airport on Wednesday

The EastEnders actress, 31, was visibly shocked as she spotted the former UKIP leader getting out of the bathtub, saying to herself: ‘That’s a sight, for sore eyes.’

After her own experience, Danielle bumped into Josie, 38, and said: ‘I just saw something I never thought I’d see: Nigel’s bare a**e.’

Josie laughed: ‘I see it on the first day! Considering he’s nearly 60 it ain’t too bad.’

Danielle replied: ‘He looks good doesn’t he? Nice little bum.’

After the scenes, Nigel’s furious aides claimed the show had broken an ‘indecency’ clause in his contract which banned the channel from showing footage of him nude. 

However, a show source told the Mirror: ‘All the celebrities are fully briefed before they enter camp that there’s cameras everywhere, except for the dunny.’ 

Nigel stripped off yet again during Tuesday night’s show as he performed a striptease while singing I’m Too Sexy by Right Said Fred.

The campmates were treated to booze, pizza and karaoke during a visit to the legendary Jungle Arms. 

And after receiving such a treat it appeared the team had lost their inhibitions as they put on a series of questionable performances. 

Unimpressed? Nigel’s team fired off a legal letter to ITV bosses for showing him naked in the I’m A Celebrity jungle shower

Rules: His furious aides claim there is an ‘indecency’ clause in his contract which bans the channel from showing footage of him nude

Viewers were left delighted by Nigel’s antics, however, after his team alleged ITV were ‘starving’ him of minutes on screen because producers ‘do not agree with his politics’.

ITV have dismissed these claims as ‘nonsense’ and a spokesman said: ‘We are a 60-75 minute entertainment show and the content featured is a fair and accurate representation of life in camp.’

Former Tory MP and I’m a Celebrity campmate, Edwina Currie, said she was convinced that Farage showering naked was all part of his plan to get extra airtime.

While in his chat with MailOnline, Frankie joked that perhaps he would have been shown more on screen if he bathed naked. 

Speaking about his relationship with the MP, the former jockey said:  I think he’s doing really well. 

I mean, I love Nigel, he is super funny, very interesting, very knowledgeable. He’s got an opinion about something. And he says it how it is.’ 

I’m A Celebrity airs nightly at 9pm on ITV1 and ITVX
