Ozzy’s death has had a rough few months for Jack Osborne, but Kelly Brook, his campmate, doesn’t seem particularly interested in cutting him any slack, and it has raised eyebrows in the eyes of viewers.
Jungle viewers have got hot under the collar at ‘unnecessarily dramatic’ campmate Kelly Brook as she seemed irritated with Jack Osborne taking charge of the cooking. Fans raged “cut him some slack” as they slammed Kelly, 45, on Tuesday’s I’m A Celeb episode for ‘starting beef’ with the reality star, 40, worrying that he might quit the show.
Although Jack had previously assumed the position of camp’s unofficial chef, Kelly and Jack had argued over how to properly prepare potatoes.
Kelly admitted that she felt “displaced” by Jack and that she was “not gonna lie,” “last night I just felt, I just felt a little lost.” She continued, “I just want to be so helpful, I’m just trying to find my place in the camp in terms of what to do.”
She later apologized for what some online fans have claimed was her plot to “feel” at, saying, “I’m so sorry Jack, if I’m coming at you and if I’m cutting potatoes wrong, but honestly it’s only coming from a place where I just want to help.”

Jack seemed distinctly unimpressed, slamming back: ‘That’s just because in my world at home I’ve got four kids and I’m always just doing, doing, doing.’
Their altercation had clearly left its mark, as Jack – who lost his father, legendary Black Sabbath rocker Ozzy in July, subsequently decided to hand over cooking duties to Alex Scott and Shona McGarty.
However, she declined when Alex later asked, in a rather strange way, if she would like to lend a hand. Kelly told the girls, “He’s in charge of everything, choosing who’s going to be in charge!” when he claimed that cooking wasn’t his to delegate in the first place.
Fans on X had plenty to say about the incident, calling it “unnecessarily dramatic,” as they pleaded with the contestants to remember that Jack is still grieving his father’s tragic passing.
One writer wrote, “Has no time at all for all the little digs Kelly keeps making toward Jack,” and another, “Who else but someone called Kelly to start beef with Jack Osbourne she’s so unnecessarily dramatic,”
Another viewer said, ‘’It would never occur to Kelly, Shona and Alex that Jack is in the early stages of bereavement and maybe he needs to keep busy because it gives him less time to think and ponder his loss. Cut him some slack and stop b****ing’.’
The argument evidently left a bad taste in Jack’s mouth, and raised concern amongst viewers that he could be ready to hang up his jungle hat, amid rising tension in camp – and an emotional start to his stint. It saw him break down in tears as he opened up about losing his dad, while chatting to Emmerdale’s Lisa Riley around the campfire.
He admitted that while we were aware of his illness for a while, it was undoubtedly a shock and that we didn’t anticipate it would pass that quickly. He performed a massive, massive gig and said, “Alright, I’m done.” It was the ultimate mic drop.
The famous campmate later admitted that despite being in the process of transition, it is still relatively new and that it has been three and a half months.
