There's yet another update in the whole Ant McPartlin and Dean McCullough drama and it's clear I'm A Celeb fans are absolutely loving it.
ITV viewers will be well aware by now of an apparent tension between Ant and Dec and the BBC1 Radio star which seemingly first started last week.
Ant wasn't shy to admit he was seriously 'disappointed' in the 32-year-old throwing the towel in two times in a row when he yelled out 'I'm a celebrity, get me out of here' during his trials.

Ant previously admitted: "My annoyance came across on screen and I was quite unprofessional and I’m not happy about it."
Reflecting on his behaviour, the presenter explained: "You get to the point where you’re like 'What are you doing?'"
"I think you hid it quite well," Dec jokingly mocked.
A body language expert has even weighed in on the matter, stating that Ant and Dec 'seem to be losing their patience' with Dean.
And, after it was announced Dean would take on yet another Bushtucker Trial, Ant has urged I'm A Celeb fans to keep one thing in mind when it comes to the next trial.
Speaking on I'm a Celebrity... Extra Camp, Ant explained he would 'look directly in the camera' while having a 'serious talk' about the TV show.
He began: "I think it's good to see other faces down there.
"This is not a personal thing, it's not about Dean. It's about us just seeing different people down there."
The presenter continued: "And I think we'd want to see different people on the show being featured.
"Some people, unfortunately, aren't getting ... you know, I'd like to see Barry do a trial. I'd like to see Melvin down there, we want to see Oti."
And the latest update saw Ant and Dec joking with Dean that he’d 'even got a round of applause' from them, before the DJ quipped: "Next thing you’ll be following me on Instagram."
Taking no time to respond, Ant hit back with a savage four words: "Not going to happen."
Viewers have since rushed to social media to share their reactions to the situ with one X user writing: "Who do you think is sick of Dean more, the camp mates, the viewers or Ant?"
"Ant isn’t joking he won’t be following Dean on Instagram," claimed a second while a third joked: "Ant having to pity-follow Dean on Instagram now."
A fourth chimed in: "Dean was not joking about the Instagram follow."
"Ant openly telling Dean he won’t be following him on Instagram was 10/10," praised a fifth.
Ant and Dec have also since weighed in on the chatter online sharing a screenshot of Dean's Instagram profile circling the 'Follow back' button with the caption: "Should we?"
Naturally, people found the entire thing hilarious with a sixth X user commenting amid the sea of laughing emojis: "Only if he gets 12 stars without screaming!"
Another chirped: "Only if he doesn’t have to do a trial today…"
And a final X user added: "Yeah but mute him!"
