Tulisa Contostavlos has addressed the rumours of a spat with her bestie, slamming claims of any row.
The claims emerged after Tulisa explained why she had decided not appear on the spin-off show following her exit. In a strange turn, hosts Ant and Dec also pulled out of it.
The I’m A Celebrity star took to Instagram to set the record straight: “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 and my soul fam so special to me. Say what u want about me, but leave my Shelly and Dan alone pls x.”

This comes after whispers of a bust-up with Michelle McKenna over social media content while Tulisa was roughing it in the jungle, as reported by the Daily Mail.

Despite the alleged row, which supposedly centred on a post showing a lavish meal while Tulisa was an I’m a Celeb contestant, the singer denies any conflict. Meanwhile, there’s been a buzz about Tulisa’s absence from the JW Marriott Hotel, where the celebs’ entourages are holed up, since Monday.
A source told The Sun: “Tulisa and the two friends who came to Australia with her disappeared after she came out. No one saw her in the hotel and she wasn’t talking to anyone.
“Her mates were talking among themselves and were worried as no one could pin her down. They were chatting back and forth in their group chats and no one could raise her. It was total radio silence.”

Another added: “Not having Tulisa at the hotel with the other stars has been odd, and people don’t know whether or not she’ll be back to film the reunion. Naturally everyone just wants her to be all right and ITV and her campmates are being supportive.”
She also missed out on the I’m a Celeb extra show and catching up with fellow camper Melvin Odoom.
The N-Dubz icon and ex-X Factor judge confessed feeling “overwhelmed” post-jungle adventure.
She admitted: “I’ve been out of the spotlight for a long time and I’m still trying to overcome those things, I’ve got my demons. I need a little time to process it and get right with my thoughts. I’ve just felt overwhelmed,” reports the Mirror.

“I’m an introvert. I’ve been in the jungle with people I’d only just met for two-and-a-half weeks straight and then I’ve come out and I’ve received loads and loads of attention.”
She added a note of gratitude: “Thank you to ITV and I’m a Celeb for being understanding. Mental health is really important and I’m grateful for the love and support I’ve had.”

Meanwhile, Tulisa – the third star to bid goodbye to the jungle madness – wasn’t there as Melvin, aged 44, made his way back to the luxury JW Marriott Hotel on the Gold Coast. But celeb pals Jane Moore and Dean McCullough didn’t miss the chance to welcome him.
In a mysterious move, Tulisa has also wiped her social media clean of show references – leaving fans to wonder as she reshuffles her Instagram grid.
