I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! star Fred Sirieix’s daughter has been inundated with support following her dad’s tough time on the show so far.

19-year-old Olympic diver Andrea Spendolini-Sirieix, whom Fred shares with his ex-partner Alex Spendolini, has received messages from fans saying she should be proud of the way her dad has carried himself on the ITV series.

The First Dates star became embroiled in another awkward row in camp earlier this week, just one day after he had exchanged heated words about Brexit with ex-UKIP leader Nigel Farage.

ITV viewers were shocked to see YouTube star Nella Rose slam Fred for a seemingly innocent comment, which he later apologised for.

Nella was left feeling “disrespected” and “offended” on Tuesday after Fred told her he was old enough to be her father, as she had recently opened up about her own father’s sad death in 2020.

It came as a huge blow to the social media star at the time, as she had already lost her mother when she was aged just 19.

Claiming Fred had been aware of her family tragedy, she blamed him for upsetting her with comments he made about their age difference.

In a conversation about their ages, the 51-year-old French star told the 26-year-old that he was old enough to be her dad, which left her feeling furious.

She told the Bush Telegraph afterwards: “I took offence to that because one of the first conversations we had together was me opening up about the fact that my dad’s passed away. I didn’t say anything about it last night because I was kind of just annoyed about it.”

She also later confronted Fred, calling him “disrespectful” and saying: “I don’t want to eat no food that you’re cooking, don’t talk to me, you stay over there, I stay over here and we can live.”

Fred apologised to her, explaining: “I am unaware that you felt offended. I am unaware that what I said would lead to this conversation, I only said that in a way because I am older than you, I am 51 and you’re 26.”

Following the dramatic exchange, fans took to Fred’s daughter Andrea’s Instagram page boasting 34,000 followers to send messages of support in the comments section of her latest post.

“Just came to say that your dad is lovely (I have been a fan for years) and I’m rooting for him to win,” wrote Ell. “You should be so proud of him, as he is with you.” (sic)

“So proud of your dad on I’m A Celeb,” Verity added. “He’s gonna be amazing.” (sic)

“#TEAMFRED,” wrote Demi added under the picture of Andrea enjoying the Christmas lights at Covent Garden.

I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! continues tonight at 9pm on ITV.
