I'm A Celebrity...Get Me Out Of Here! begun it's 2019 season last night, and we got our first look at this year's celebrities.

A whole load of famous faces entered the ITV jungle, each from very different walks of life. There was Watford boy Myles Stephenson, New Yorker Caitlyn Jenner to Woolwich local Ian Wright.

But as Girls Aloud legend Nadine Coyle joined the star studded line up, it was her thick Northern Irish accent that many viewers just couldn't seem to get to grips with.

Nadine is from Northern Ireland's Derry, but having then gone on to move to the US, her accent is now a mixture of American and Irish.

And some people were left so boggled by her accent that they took to social media to request that ITV give her subtitles.

"Starting a petition for @ITV to subtitle everything Nadine says #ImACeleb," one fan of the show wrote.

While another added: "Can we get subtitles for Nadine Coyle? Even being from NI, i still have no idea what shes saying #ImACeleb".

A third agreed, asking: "Does Nadine Coyle come with subtitles? #ImACeleb #ImACelebrityGetMeOutOfHere".

Poor Nadine!

Nadine even acknowledged her accent was pretty strong as she greeted Ian Wright on the luxury yacht at the start of the show.

After sensing he was finding her accent difficult to grasp, she assured him: "If you need me to repeat anything, just say, but only for you".

She's also made jokes about her accent in the past, even releasing a video in which she attempts an array of different accents to jokingly clap back at those who don't understand her.

"There's that thing that's always sort of came up about my accent and the way that I speak, so I was thinking that perhaps I've been in London for a long time, and perhaps I should fully embrace that," she said, changing her voice as she went until she had a cockney twang.

Nadine then went on to test out a whole array of different accents, from typical LA to Australian.

We say embrace your Northern Irish roots, Nadine, we'll all catch up with you soon enough...
