- Boxer David Haye sparked controversy on I'm A Celebrity South Africa with comments about his girlfriend and the personalities of "ugly birds".
- Haye described his girlfriend, Sian Osborne, as having the "personality of a proper ugly bird" and suggested that less attractive women develop stronger personalities.
- He termed this the "Ugly Duckling syndrome", claiming that women initially perceived as unattractive work harder to be personable, unlike "most super pretty girls" who he stated are "idiots".
- His remarks were met with disbelief by fellow campmates, including Scarlett Moffatt, Ashley Roberts, and Beverley Callard, who challenged his views.
- The comments were later discussed on ITV’s Good Morning Britain, where Susanna Reid dismissed them as not bearing scrutiny.
