Martin Kemp's furious family rage that Angry Ginge's ear 'is getting more airtime than him' on I'm A Celebrity
Martin's wife Shirlie fears he won't make it to the finalMartin Kemp‘s son Roman and his family have lashed out at the editing of I’m A Celebrity, complaining that Angry Ginge’s ear ‘is getting more airtime’ than him.
The Spandau Ballet star’s loved ones have vented on social media amid growing frustration that Martin is “missing” from the ITV show.
Their latest rant came as Jack Osbourne and Lisa Riley performed a puppet show in camp using Angry Ginge’s ears.
Messaging from Martin’s official X account, the Kemp family complained: “Not ginge’s talking ear having more screen time than martin. #ImACeleb.”
A second message read: “If we keep voting for Martin Kemp to stay in #ImACeleb, and he’s the only person left in the camp, they’ll HAVE TO INCLUDE HIM IN THE EPISODE?!??!”
They also hammered their point home by sharing a mock-up of a Where’s Wally book. Instead, it was titled Where’s Martin and, sharing a picture on X, they remarked: “Available in all-good bookstores: ‘Where’s Martin?’ The official tie-in for this series of #ImACeleb. Includes more sightings than the actual show.”
I’m A Celebrity: Martin Kemp’s ‘lack of airtime’
Martin’s family aren’t the only ones who are fed up at the singer’s lack of airtime in this year’s I’m A Celebrity. Fans have been furiously demanding they see more of him for days.
Last night, another viewer wrote: “Serious question, how is Martin Kemp still in there? I guess his fan base is massive because we’ve basically not seen him for a week and a half.”
Someone else added: “Ngl I keep forgetting Martin’s there. Whenever anyone mentions Martin I think, who ? Oh yea Martin Kemp I forgot he was there.”
Meanwhile, Martin’s wife Shirlie has appeared on ITV1’s Lorraine live from Australia. The 80s singer is currently Down Under waiting for her husband to leave the jungle.
Touching upon his lack of airtime, Shirlie hinted that she is frustrated with him for ‘not doing enough’ while in the jungle.
“I think Martin’s being quite quiet though, because that’s naturally who he is,” Shirlie said. “He’s quite quiet and likes to listen. Sometimes I want to say to him, ‘Martin, come on, do more!’ But I think it’s a good detox and a rest for him.”
Martin’s wife Shirlie demands more trials
Lorraine told Shirlie she believes Martin could make it all the way to the final. But Shirlie disagreed – due to his lack of Bushtucker Trials.
Shirley added: “He needs more trials, he’s not doing enough. I think he’s very comfortable. He’s not doing anything to annoy anyone, so no one is voting for him to do a horrible trial. He would be up for it.”
Martin is a risk from elimination alongside the other remaining campmates. They are Jack, Lisa, Tom Read Wilson, Ruby Wax, Angry Ginge, Aitch, Shona McGarty and Kelly Brook.
Last night, Vogue Williams was the third celebrity to be given the boot from I’m A Celebrity. Tonight’s show starts at 9pm on ITV1 and ITVX.
Will Martin cling on another night?
