I'm A Celebrity... South Africa's campmates have been embroiled in a bitter feud since the pre-recorded show began airing earlier this month.
Paul Burrell, who returned to the show alongside a string of other famous faces from the 21-year-long franchise has said the WhatsApp group has descended into chaos after the programme began airing.
Former royal butler Paul, 64, has spilled the beans on tensions amongst the former campmates after he and Carol Vorderman were booted from the show, just missing out on a spot in the final.
Princess Diana's ex butler Paul explained the campmates swap notes on the WhatsApp group as the show airs and the stars are "seeing the context of everything".
Paul said: "Now we’re watching it all and we’re seeing the context of everything, we’re constantly texting each other saying, ‘Oh you did that. Wow’. I do have rumbles to have."

The particular gripes Paul has are with Fatima Whitbread, who fumed after the camp's contraband was revealed, and Janice Dickinson.
And one celebrity has even been snubbed from the group.
"We’re all in the WhatsApp group except Janice. Janice is not in the class of 2023 for obvious reasons," Paul told The Sun.
Paul added how the group are "wary" of Janice.
He added: "Janice was the wild card in the camp and we are all a little bit scared of her to be honest."

Paul has his own issues with Janice over a row about contraband goods.
After it was revealed that Gillian McKeith had smuggled in a number of goodies and Paul snuck coffee into camp, Paul says he felt Janice "threw him under the bus".
He added how the butler had been giving her cups of coffee in the morning and she would be "sipping it very slowly and looking at me and winking" but when it came to a confrontation Janice "sat there in silence".

He added: "When it was about saving herself, she had plenty to say. Janice was rude to everybody, she doesn’t pull any punches."
Meanwhile, Paul also has an issue with Fatima Whitbread, who fumed when the extent of contraband in camp was revealed.
In the heated scenes, Fatima fumed: "It’s about the rules being breached, because I’m a principles person and I want to be true to myself."
But, now Paul has claimed Fatima wasn't squeaky clean when it came to contraband as she was given some mints by Gillian, which the butler said is a "bit rich" before adding: "She wasn't quite so righteous after all".
As well as Paul airing grievances since his time in the show, Shaun Ryder revealed how he felt Paul and Gillian were faking reactions on the show while Andy Whyment didn't hold back on his criticism of Janice.
The I'm A Celebrity... South Africa final airs tonight at 9pm on ITV.
