Josie Gibson has detailed her secret I'm A Celebrity 'showdown' with Fred Sirieix that wasn't shown to viewers.
The pair famously fell out over their cooking during their time in the I'm A Celebrity jungle. Fred was originally camp chef, but very quickly things turned sour when Josie was given the role and Fred felt she was doing it all wrong.
During her exit chat this evening, Josie was asked about their feud before she revealed that she and Fred had had a big 'showdown' before he left the jungle - but it wasn't shown to viewers at home.

I think I put him straight at the end. In the end, I just had to settle it with a showdown. We had a showdown in the end and I won."
During a chat after his exit, Fred admitted his mum was angry with him over his feud with Josie.

"This morning, I spoke to my mum, she called me because she knew I was out, she said to me: 'Frederick'. You know why she calls me Frederick? Because she's upset! 'Frederick, what did you do with Josie? Why were you standing on the top there telling her what to do, what was going through your mind?' I got a telling off from my mum!" he revealed.
"I said: 'Mum, it's because!', [she said]: 'Frederick! I don't want to listen to you, this is unacceptable, you can't do that! I don't want you to do it again today.' I said: 'Mum, what do you mean?' She did not understand I was no longer in the jungle, I was out, it's a game. "I had to explain to her, she said: 'Frederick, if you do that again!' and I said: 'Mum, I'm no longer in the jungle so I'm not going to do it!' She said: 'Frederick, do not do it again!' and I said: 'Mum, I promise you I'm not going to do it again, next time Josie is cooking, I will sit down and say nothing!' "[She said]: 'That's good Frederick, but if you do it again, I am going to be very upset with you!' she was mad! I had to say to her: 'Look, mum, I am not going to do it again!'"
In his exit interview, Fred defended his actions in criticising Josie. He said: "She's just making it up as she goes along. So I think there's a lot at stake with the food. And it's not just what you're cooking at the moment which of course is going to be good, because the produce is incredible, it is what you can do the next day with the leftovers of the bones."
