Nicola McLean slams Love Island's Amber Gill as she calls her 'rude' in surprising feud

A surprising feud has bubbled up between I'm A Celebrity star Nicola McLean and 2019 Love Island winner Amber Gill.

The duo have explained why they have no interest in making up after coming to blows at a press event last year.

Amber and Nicola were both at Winter Wonderland, where Amber allegedly refused to take a picture with Nicola's niece.

Giving her recollection, Nicola told The Sun: "Last year at Winter Wonderland we did a press night and my niece was there and she asked politely for a photo with Amber.

"I know my niece, she wouldn’t have done it when Amber was eating or something, she literally asked her and Amber refused a picture."

Nicola said she had no issue publicly speaking about the incident as she has 'zero interest' in befriending the former Love Island winner.

The I'm a Celebrity star continued: "I said on Instagram that was not right. I was p*****d off about it, and now she’s saying I’m the rudest celebrity but who cares? I have zero interest in being friends with her."

Nicola went on to add that she really liked Islander Chloe Burrows but when asked about Amber she said 'absolutely f***ing not'.

Amber has also addressed the incident last week when she made an appearance on Chloe Burrows podcast, the 25-year-old author said: "I haven't met them but the person that was the rudest to us was Nicola McLean.

"So I went to Winter Wonderland the year I came out and it was intense and I thought it was a press evening and there was loads of kids and stuff but that's fine but I couldn't get into any rides because they were swarming us."

Amber spoke about feeling overwhelmed with the amount of attention she was getting at Winter Wonderland and how she had to start saying no to pictures so that she could go on rides and enjoy the experience rather than being swarmed.

She said: "I left Winter Wonderland and I had to start saying no to people because I wanted to go on rides — and [Nicola] put on a story about us saying 'she acted like Kim Kardashian ' because one of her nieces or cousins was there.

"She was talking to her story and obviously it's intense when you come out as well saying I acted like a Kardashian and she was tagging us in it as well it was mad."
