Ant McPartlin brands co-star Declan Donnelly ‘deceitful’ after discovering Instagram clip

Ant McPartlin, 44, and Declan Donnelly, 44, regularly banter with one another on the ITV reality series I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! 2019. But it seemingly appeared Dec may have taken it too far after his co-host called him out for being a “liar” in an Instagram story yesterday.

In view of their 3.4 million Instagram followers, the I’m A Celebrity host approached a stationary car where Ant was seated in the front.

“Somebody’s got here early and it’s my turn in the front,” Dec mused as he walked towards his co-star. “I thought we came to an agreement?”

The presenting duo had previously agreed on who gets to take the front seat and who gets demoted to the back seat each day as they head into the jungle.

Ant hit back: “You made two mistakes yesterday. The first was cheating with the coin.”

A stunned Dec interjected: “What?” as he jokingly appeared shocked by his sidekick’s claims that he had “cheated”.

“Your second mistake was not realising that I look back at these Instagram stories,” Ant explained.

Unable to form a rebuttal, the Britain’s Got Talent host said to the camera phone: “I hadn’t thought this one through,” before Ant shouted: “Get in the back you little twerp!”

He added: “I’m not happy,” as he slammed the car door closed.

Ant’s frustrations come after Dec had previously insisted they play a coin game where the former had to pick which hand his co-star held the money.

If he guessed correctly, Dec would have to give up his claim to the front seat of their chauffeured vehicle.

Unbeknownst to Ant, his co-star had tricked him because he didn’t actually have a coin in either of his hands.

As the BGT host took his seat in the back of the car, Dec cheekily said in a separate video clip that he had indeed lied to Ant in the coin game and he ultimately would have ended up in the back seat which ever hand he chose.

However, Ant had taken to their joint Instagram account and saw the footage which revealed his co-presenter had tricked him.

As they rode into the I’m A Celebrity jungle together, Dec sighed: “Show 18 of 22.”

Ant replied: “That’s right Mr Deceitful. It is.”

Dec could not contain his amusement, as he chuckled: “Your not quite over this are you? Who brought it to your attention that I may have tricked you?”

His co-presenter replied: “I’m not over it. You lied to me. I saw it on Instagram stories because we share an account. You didn’t think it through did you?”

Dec mused: “No, I didn’t.”

Meanwhile, campmates bid farewell to Arsenal legend Ian Wright after he was booted from the jungle in last night’s episode.
