I'm A Celeb's Phil Tufnell appears to shade co-stars Myleene and Fatima

I'm A Celebrity... South Africa star Phil Tufnell appeared to have thrown shade at fellow campmates Myleene Klass and Fatima Whitbread.

The former King of the Jungle, 57, was sent home in the final episode of the All Stars series of the ITV series.

Myleene Klass, Jordan Banjo and Fatima Whitbread became the finalists in the pre-recorded competition.

In his exit interview, Phil opened up about who he got along with during his time in the jungle but failed to mention Fatima and Myleene.

He said: "I instantly hit it off with Shaun [Ryder]," he said. "He said we are going to go on tour with him with The Happy Mondays. Crikey, I might just go for a couple of nights.

"I got very close to Dean and Joe. Great lads, they came bouncing in like bouncy balls. Just full of life. And also Jordan, or the biggun' as I call him."

Phil added: "Toff was great fun. Carol was beautiful and demure. Amir is a great lad, what a top block he is. Janice is absolutely lovely - and wild – crikey, there’s not too many Janice’s in the world.

"Honestly, I got on with everyone I really did. I’ve never seen so many people so at ease."

The former cricketer didn't mention campmates Myleene and Fatima while talking about his experience.

Phil and Shaun hit it off so quickly that he even compared the musician to Star Wars' Yoda because of his walking stick and pointy ears.

The pair spent a lot of time chatting about a variety of subjects including aches and pains and the cooking pans.

In a recent episode, Phil said: "I mean Shaun Ryder absolute legend, and we just have a laugh.

"He makes me laugh and I think, especially with that stick, he looks like Yoda. Y'know the little bloke with the hessian cloak in Star Wars with the stick and the ears. I reckon he's gonna start levitating soon, haha."

I'm A Celeb is available to watch on ITVX.
