Coleen Nolan has shared that she was left "fuming" with fellow ITV daytime star Josie Gibson's comments on I'm A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! as she discussed "real men" with campmate Nella Rose.
Josie and YouTuber Nella had a chat about the traditional roles men were playing in the camp, with Nella telling the This Morning presenter: "The men are supposed to go out, hunt, get the wood, make the fire whilst the women keep the vibes," causing both of them to burst into laughter.
"It's giving me faith in men again," Josie responded, to which Nella added: "Yeah! Imagine if it was a bunch of men my age – they'd be like, 'Why are they the only ones getting the water, bruv?' These are real men."
However, these comments left some of the Loose Women panellists less than impressed as they discussed the previous night's I'm A Celeb.
Back in the studio, host Charlene White asked co-star Coleen Nolan about her thoughts on the conversation, to which she replied: "Oh, I was fuming."
When asked why, she explained: "Because I feel sorry for men! They don't know where they stand anymore! One minute we're saying, 'We're all equal, everything should be equal, nobody should be opening doors for no one, no one should be standing up for anyone.
"And now you've got – who I love by the way – Josie and Nella… you've got them in there going, 'These are real men, I wish men were all like this.' I just thought, 'Give men a break! Let them know what you want them to do!'"
Coleen continued: "I am quite old fashioned and I always used to love it when I was on a train and it was full and a man would stand up and give me a seat and I'd think, 'Oh, that's so nice and lovely.'
"I know that my boys would do that. But I realise now that women wanted equal rights and everything, so I've joined that club now and I've tried not to moan about it.
"But then that happens and even I'm confused now and I'm not a man!"
Fans were not impressed with the conversation either, with one commenting: "Not a fan of the 'real men' comments from Josie and Nella in regards to the men doing all the work around camp – imagine if two guys watched the girls cook dinner and said 'yeah these are real women' #Imaceleb."
While another remarked: "Sigh.. Nella and Josie setting women back #ImaCeleb."
A third wrote: "Nella and Josie. Men collecting logs doesn't make them gentlemen. How you leave others after an experience with you is how you get your trademark #ImACeleb #moderngentleman."
