AJ Pritchard ‘s family appear to have taken a swipe at some of his fellow I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! campmates before he was voted off.
The former Strictly Come Dancing professional was evicted from the ITV show alongside Sir Mo Farah on Wednesday evening, and obviously his relatives were not impressed.
AJ’s friends and family confirmed that they were running his Twitter account while he stayed in Gwrych Castle in Wales to compete in the show.
On the night that AJ, 26, was evicted from the show, a member of his close circle liked a tweet that took a swipe at his fellow celebrities.

The tweet read: “If both @Mo_Farah and @Aj11Ace go tonight in the double eviction don’t think I will be bothered to watch the rest of the show as they are the only ones I am tuning in for tbh.
“Most genuine and down to Earth, not playing up to the cameras all the time#ImACeleb #ajpritchard.”

It’s unsure which celebs the viewer was actually referring to, but at that point, former EastEnders actor Shane Richie was still in camp.
Shane, 56, and AJ appeared to have a strained relationship at times as they butted heads over the cleaning of the pots and pans in camp.
During his post-eviction interview with hosts Ant McPartlin and Declan Donnelly, AJ tried to explain why he struggled more than others in camp.

AJ said: “Probably because I’m getting all the wood, the water… I was doing a lot more.”
Commenting on Shane’s dirty pans, he added: “Oh my God that took all the day and I didn’t even get through them all.”
AJ’s younger brother Curtis also referenced Shane when he spoke about the series on a podcast recently.

The former Love Island star added: “So I’m going to just say it then, Shane has been lazy basically. He ain’t pulling his weight around and ain’t doing his chores.”
Shane’s son with Coleen Nolan, Shane Jr, was quick to fire back and took to Twitter to make his feelings known about AJ.
The 31-year-old tweeted: “I can’t help it, AJ winds me up. He does. I don’t really know why either #ImACeleb.”
He later added: “Can I just say I don’t agree with some of the comments said about AJ tonight , I’m not actually that bothered, he seems sound but just not my cup of tea and I’m sure he wud feel the same. Now move on folks (sic).”
