She’s not had the easiest of times in the I’m A Celeb jungle.

And it now it seems that former Corrie star Helen Flanagan has fallen out with Eric Bristow yet again.

The blonde actress, who became upset after Eric mocked her bad skin on Thursday, had another showdown with the darts player, after admitting that she can’t blow dry her own hair.

The 22-year-old had to face more personal jibes on Friday after she had a fake tan mishap, leaving her face much browner than her body, and got into another war of words with Eric.

As the others got stuck into a clearing up session, Helen opted to work on her look, applying another layer of fake tan.

‘I always go for spray tans every two nights, I pay for it, it’s my money, not my boyfriend’s,’ she told the camp.

Obviously annoying Eric, she continued, saying:

‘I’ve never learned to blow dry my own hair. When I used to work on Coronation Street I used to go into make up in the morning and have my hair blow dried and so now I prefer other people to do it.’

The 55-year-old then told the actress that he didn’t think that she was very independent, clearly riling her.

‘I’m really independent, I just prefer other people to do it, it is independent and if you can afford to pay for it then that’s fine,’ she retorted.

Well I hope you carry on earning money then girl,’ Eric said.

‘You are saying that I’m not independent when I’m really independent, I
just like having my hair blow dried. It doesn’t mean I’m a spoilt cow,’ an upset Helen replied.

‘Ooh don’t put words into my mouth’ said Eric, ‘You aren’t independent if you can’t dry your own hair.’

Letting Eric get to her again, the blonde star added:

‘Honestly mind your own business, you are such a strange creature, you are such a strange specimen, honestly such a strange cretin, honesty bore off.’

Clearly not wanting to fall out, Helen approached Eric a little later on, saying:

We’re
friends really aren’t we Eric?’

‘We’re just companions in the jungle, we’re not friends,’ he responded.

Asking Ashley Roberts whether she looked brown, the former Pussycat Doll responded;

‘Your face is browner than your body.’

Charlie Brooks also waded into the discussion:

‘It does look a little bit ridiculous she looks like an oompa loompa, she looks ridiculous,’ she said.
