Tulisa Contostvalos insists she has “no issue” with her best pal, Michelle McKenna, who flew out to Australia to support her on I’m A Celebrity…Get Me Out Of Here!
The pair were seen hugging on the rope bridge as the N-Duz star, 36, left the camp on Tuesday, but then they reportedly had a ‘blazing row’ over an Instagram post Michelle had made via Tulisa’s account.
Michelle had taken over the singer’s Instagram while she was in the jungle. However, when Tulisa left the camp, the ‘female boss’ deleted every post connected to the show, later telling fans: “The way everything’s posted and all the random stuff is not the way I would do my Insta.”
Tulisa then swerved the ITV2 spin-off show Unpacked before admitting to her followers that she was “overwhelmed” by the I’m A Celeb experience and would post her own reel from the show on social media ‘when the time was right’.
It’s now been reported that she and Michelle, who have known each other since they were teenagers, were screaming at one another after Tulisa made clear she was unhappy about the ‘kind of content’ being shared by her pal and her boyfriend, Daniel Johnson.
The post which reportedly really riled the ‘female boss’ was a video in which Michelle and Daniel joked that dinner was on Tulisa when she left the jungle. A friend said that she felt it was ‘inappropriate’.
Speaking to the Mail, they shared: “They were only in Australia because of Tulisa. It felt like they were revelling in the situation and taking liberties on her kindness.
“Michelle and Daniel were there, on a trip funded by ITV and only because of Tulisa. They were there because of her and she trusted them with her social media.
“When she got out of the jungle and saw what had been put on there, she was upset and it prompted a huge row. You can’t help but think that seeing her friends living it up like that while she was roughing it in the jungle must have really annoyed her. She was distraught to see what had been posted and she wanted to get rid of it as quickly as possible.”
Following reports of friction between the friends, Tulisa, who is now reported to have left Australia, took to her Instagram – which she is once again in charge of – insisting there is no bad blood between the pair.
She said: “Absolutely no issue with my sis’s posts…haven’t argued with my best mate in over 10 years. We literally don’t have arguments, they don’t exist in our world. Only love. Same with my bro. That’s what makes us so strong & my soul fam so special to me. Say what u want about me, but leave my Shelly & Dan alone pls x.”
