ITV I'm A Celeb's Jane Moore supported as 'ageist' and 'misogyny' row rolls on

I'm A Celeb: Jane Moore defended by Loose Women co-stars

Jane Moore has been supported by her Loose Women co-stars after she found herself at the centre of a "misongny" and "agest" row.

An argument broke out on the ITV programme I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! after she was given the washing up duty by new camp leaders Danny and Barry, leaving her fuming at the decision.

The TV star, 62, was assigned the task with her fellow campmate Tulisa which had been a tough pick for Danny and Barry who had spent a long time deliberating over who got what job in camp.

Danny and Barry had pondered over whether they had distributed some of the more strenious tasks to the male members of the group but didn't think Jane would mind being put on the washing up - but they were wrong and things blew up.

On Monday's (November 25) episode of Loose Women, she was supported by her co-stars who told viewers she was someone who "got stuck in" and that's probably why she was annoyed, commented Frankie Bridge.

Judi Love agreed adding: "Jane is just like one of these people who says 'I'll do whatever needs to be done', so I think as long as she feels like that she'll be happy but you've got to understand people are hungry and tired."

Coleen chimed in:"I think that's the main thing, the hunger, the boredom and the tiredness. I think Jane's not one to handle boredom at all because like you said she wants to be up and doing stuff.

"And you can see because every time they come up with who's doing the trial you can see she's the only one when she's not picked goes 'ahhh' and that's genuine."

In the jungle after Danny and Barry announced that two female campmates had been tasked with the washing up Jane cried out: "Oh what? Is that because we're women?"

Tryin to ease the tension, Barry stepped in to explain why she'd been selected to wash up, telling her because she had been a year younger than him (62), he thought a less strenuous task might have been better.

This only fuelled the fire as Jane fired back: "So ageist and sexist." Former Strictly Come Dancing star Oti Mabuse later said: "You could cut the tension with a knife."

Later on in the programme Jane could be seen complaining to The Voice star Danny, blurting that she had previously pleaded with him not to give her a cleaning duty.

She fumed: "Those were my last words as you walked past me, 'please not cleaning', and you've given me cleaning." She added: "I'm not upset, I'm just saying it's women doing the washing up again."

Hosts Ant McPartlin and Declan Donnelly appeared to be shocked over Jane's comments and didn't neccasarily agree with her claims either as they appeared to heap support for both Barry and Danny.

Ant said: "I think she is being a bit unfair by saying it’s sexist and ageist. I think they were just trying to do a good job in allocating fairly, if I'm honest." Dec agreed: "Yes, I agree. I feel for Barry, he was only trying to do his best." Ant added: "Poor little Barry."

Meanwhile, it seemed the hosts were enjoying that feathers had been rustled in camp as they added it was "good to have a little bit of tetchiness in there."

"I am not surprised as it’s always about the chores. It’s always around the leader and who they give the chores to. It’s either that or the cooking," commented Ant.
