Boy George reportedly threw a "temper tantrum" and threatened to quit I'm A Celebrity after crew refused his request to travel back to camp on a golf buggy after a trial.
The singer, 61, is said to have not been keen to walk back to camp after doing a bushtucker trial. The journey reportedly involved a 'steep hill' within the jungle in Australia.
It's been reported that campmate Sue Cleaver, 59, is allowed to be driven in a buggy "under special conditions". The rest of the campmates are said to have to walk back.
Reports claim that Boy George was denied the opportunity to travel back in a buggy after a trial. He reportedly threw a "massive strop," stole an apple and hid in the jungle in response.
A source told The Sun : "[He] threw a massive strop and demanded to be driven in his own buggy - but ITV were having none of it as they said it wouldn't be fair on the others.
"He then stormed into one of the production crew tents and pinched an apple, before hiding behind trees so that he couldn’t be filmed by any of the show's cameras."
