Former I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here star Charlene White has been locked in a feud with her neighbour after they have been dumping rubbish outside her home.

And in a desperate bid to identify the culprit, the 43 year old newsreader has been scrolling through footage of her doorbell camera. Sharing her frustration with her fans, Charlene took to Instagram to reveal her plight. The former I'm A Celebrity star, who was in the ITV show along with Matt Hancock and Boy George, wrote: "The joys of grown up life is..." She added: "Spending hours trawling through our doorbell camera trying to figure out which neighbour keeps dumping stuff outside our house. But not being able to find the sneaky sod. Grrrrrrrr."

During her time in the jungle last year, Charlene earned a legion of fans after she quizzed her campmate and former Health Secretary for his failure to uphold his own restriction during the pandemic. Mr Hancock was exposed for breaching Covid rules after he was caught kissing his aid. Speaking about the reason why she put Mr Hancock under the spotlight, she told the panel on Loose Women last November via video link, Charlene said: "I had no idea how the announcement of him being in the camp is being perceived at home because we'd been in isolation up to two weeks before we got to camp. "

She added: "There was no access to any British TV channels, British news channels, nothing. But I felt my role as a journalist in day to day life, I felt I needed to ask the questions perhaps many people back home would want answers to because Matt is a sitting MP and parliament is still going." The TV presenter was concerned that if she came across too friendly towards the shamed politician it could potentially damage her professional life.

Charlene explained at the time: “It went from me having a laugh to constantly worrying about whether or not I could still do my job when I came out. I didn’t want anyone to feel like I was being too sympathetic to Matt because that would jeopardise the job that I love and it would jeopardise my journalistic integrity."

Charlene was the first celebrity to be eliminated from the show. Recently her sister Carina took to social media to voice her opinion of the row between Nella Rose and Fred Sirieix. Speaking about the comments Charlene used to receive while in the jungle she said: "I hope whoever is running Nella’s social accounts protect their mental health because last year when my cousin & I were running my sister’s, the comments were awful. I’m a strong person but seeing some of the vile & racist messages towards my sister were heartbreaking. "

She added: "And one point I broke down in tears but I was just grateful that Charlene didn’t see any of the hate as we blocked numerous accounts and deleted hate messages etc so she wouldn’t see it when she came out the jungle. The I’m a celebrity team control the public narrative & opinion by the way they edit the content and I hope this evening’s show shows a resolution to this Nella/Fred fiasco and they don’t allow this public hate train to gather even more speed."That being said, some people are actually insane. I remember someone DM’ing last year saying my sister needs to return to slavery with her ancestors. INSANE."
