Nigel Havers admits wanting to kill I'm A Celeb co-star Lembit Öpik

News summary

Actor Nigel Havers described his appearance on the 2010 series of 'I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here!' as a significant mistake, citing the show's boredom and a particularly contentious relationship with fellow contestant and former politician Lembit Öpik. Havers admitted he found Öpik so irritating that he felt compelled to leave the show to avoid a serious confrontation, joking that had he stayed, he might have 'killed' him and ended up in prison. Öpik responded to Havers' comments by calling him 'two-faced' and noting that they have not been on good terms since their time together in the camp, with Öpik claiming he outlasted Havers on the show. The feud between the two has persisted for over a decade, with both men publicly criticizing each other in interviews and on social media. Other celebrities from the series, such as Stacey Solomon, Alison Hammond, and Linford Christie, were also mentioned, but the focus remains on the long-standing animosity between Havers and Öpik.
