Gillian McKeith branded a Faker!

JUNGLE wimp Gillian McKeith has been accused of being an I'm A Celebrity fake.

The nutritionist, who was seen to faint on this week’s episode, has repeatedly said she suffers from a phobia of insects and a fear of heights.

But fans of the show have suggested she's faking, and even I'm A Celebrity hosts Ant and Dec thinks she's playing up to the cameras.

Joe Swash, who co-hosts ITV2 spin-off I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here Now, said the You Are What You Eat star should be booted out of the jungle.

Gillian, 51, had to be given oxygen by medics after fainting while locked in a pitch-black crate for last night's Bushtucker Trial.

Despite apparently being unconscious footage seems to show the nutritionist still being able to pull her t-shirt over her stomach.

Dec said: "There was a lot of medical attention needed at one point and she was very scared. She is genuinely, genuinely very scared of everything that is down there.

"However, I think she made the most of it."

And ex-EastEnder Joe, who won the reality TV show's 2008 series, called on viewers not to fall for McKeith's tactics.

He said: "I think she's a little bit more calculated than everyone is thinking."

"I can't believe people aren't seeing this and are falling for it. She didn't faint. She is faking it. Everyone knows what goes on in this show. Did her agent not tell her?

"Did she think she was going to be in a hotel at night time? Seriously, just send her home."

And viewers agreed with Joe's opinions that the diet expert was faking it to try and raise her TV profile.

Rachybates wrote on Twitter: "How fake was Gillian last night? Bloody drama queen."

And KatieMarie28482 added: "Gillian knew what she was signing up for. All fake if you ask me... Why sign up if you are that scared of bugs?"

Last night's episode saw Gillian being voted by the public to take part in the next Bushtucker Trail, which will air in tonight's show.
