I'm A Celebrity fans left reeling after Lucy Pargeter attacks Amy Willerton AGAIN

I’m A Celebrity’s Lucy Pargeter made headlines last week when she bullied Amy Willerton over her beauty pageant career, but it seems she's move on from judging Amy for her looks.

Now, instead, she's targeted Amy for her laziness, something which, to be fair, fellow campmates Annabel and Matthew have also picked up on.

But, while they talked to Amy directly about the issue, Lucy went for a different approach...

Wednesday night's show began with Amy waking to a bad vibe in camp. Or, as the 21-year-old put it herself, a lot of "tensity".

“There is a real ‘tensity’ around. I don’t feel relaxed, I don’t feel it’s a happy environment and I don’t think everybody is in the best of mood."

Hmm. We think maybe she's been picking up a few language lessons from Joey Essex.

She then got into a conversation with Steve Davis about Amy's love of sleeping, with the snooker champ playfully teasing Amy for her newfound Rip Van Winkle ways.

"Yes it's been a while since you've had a little sleep, about time you had another one. Do you remember those words you said on day one? You said to me you only need three hours sleep a night."

Amy readily admitted that she was shocked she'd been sleeping, but suggested maybe her body was catching up on its rest because, as Steve had said, she only gets around three or four hours sleep in the real world.

“When I’m at home it is all I sleep, it’s because I’ve been running around for so many months on just a few hours’ sleep, when my body was given the chance to sleep it just went boom. With all my running around I just get to do my e-mails at night and I end up staying up for hours and then getting up to go to the gym at 5am.”

Lucy - who had been listening intently as she puffed on a cigarette - snapped: "To who? Who are you sending emails to?"

The implication being, once again, that Amy Willerton's career is not one which requires a lot of work.

As Amy tried to explain, Lucy waved a hand dismissively and said, "oh, just go to sleep", before repeating the phrase, "Just go to sleep. Go to sleep," over and over again, until Amy retreated to the safety of her hammock.

Rebecca Adlington, who has also had an emotional time in camp, rushed to comfort Amy when she heard her sobs

It was unsurprising that, not too long later, Amy's muffled sobs were heard by her fellow campmates. And while Alfonso (better known as the Fresh Prince's Carlton) thought it might be best to leave her in peace for a good ol' cry, Rebecca Adlington and Joey Essex rushed to comfort her.

Later, in the Bush Telegraph, the beauty queen confessed: "I was lying in my hammock and was just thinking of everything, I am really sensitive but this was the first time I've felt really upset by the way someone's been towards me in camp."

"It all turned into a whirlwind of emotion and I felt really upset with myself because if I have upset someone in camp I really didn't mean to."

However Lucy, seeing the 21-year-old in tears, simply rolled her eyes. And, later in the Bush Telegraph, she cattily explained that she believes Amy only cried "to further her career".

Unfortunately for Lucy, it seems as if her behaviour has NOT won her any friends in the outside world.

Vewers appeared to get their own back when they voted the Emmerdale star to do the next bushtucker trial, Limo Scream.

Meanwhile the legend ‘That Lucy’ began trending on Twitter within minutes of the closing credits.

"Got to love the British public, start of the show Lucy is throwing digs at Amy, end of the show Lucy’s doing the trial haha!"

Another added: "I think we all know why that Lucy got picked to do the bushtucker trial!!"

However she did have her supporters, with one fan of hers adding: "I’m happy that Lucy is going to do a trial since we need to see more of her since she has a strong character."
