EXCLUSIVE I’m A Celeb’s Nella leaves ITV staff ‘baffled’ after pulling out of first TV interview with Lorraine Kelly as she ‘puts family first’

ITV viewers were left perplexed on Tuesday morning after Nella Rose pulled out of her first interview since leaving I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here!

The influencer, 26, who became the second star to be voted off, left staff at ITV’s Lorraine baffled when she cancelled at the last minute.

After claiming that she wanted to put her family first, Nella is now set to appear on Lorraine’s stablemate show, This Morning.

Sources at ITV say that the move is somewhat ‘mysterious’ as it is unprecedented that a guest would pull out of one of the channel’s daytime programmes to go to another.

Yesterday morning Lorraine Kelly, host of Lorraine, said: ‘She was going to join us this morning but decided not to give any interviews today, but we may catch up later.’

Meanwhile, an ITV source told MailOnline: ‘Nobody can work out what is going on. You just don’t say you’re doing Lorraine and then do This Morning.’

Typically, contestants will be interviewed remotely by the Scottish presenter after leaving the jungle camp, with first evictee Frankie Dettori featuring on Monday’s show.

But Nella opted out of the pre-arranged live appearance to give herself time to ‘rest and recover’, leaving producers in an eleventh hour scramble to fill her slot.

While celebrities are normally greeted by their loved ones when they cross the bridge out of the jungle, Nella was not met by anyone on Monday evening.

She has since reunited with her brother, who jetted to Australia to be beside her after she became the second campmate voted out the jungle.

Older sibling Albert, 27, landed at Brisbane airport hours after she was given the boot from hosts Ant McPartlin and Declan Donnelly, with the star not met by anyone as she crossed the show’s famous bridge.

Friends of Nella told MailOnline that she needs a day to ‘process’ her time on the ITV series, which saw the presenter challenge politician Nigel Farage and fallout with Fred Sirieix.

It is understood that Nella’s priority is to catch up with her brother, who she was emotional seeing again following weeks in the Aussie camp.

A source close to Nella told MailOnline: ‘All Nella needs right now is a day to relax and process all the happenings from her time on I’m A Celeb.

‘While she absolutely loved her experience, there has also been a lot to digest and discuss with ITV plus her team, she didn’t feel ready to be interviewed on live television by Lorraine just yet.

‘Her brother Albert arrived in Australia shortly after she was evicted from the show, and it means the world to her having him by her side.

‘It may have looked like she wasn’t met by anyone close to her as she crossed the I’m A Celeb bridge, but her brother wasn’t far away.’

UK based family members have watched her on the show and were convinced that her ‘Congolese spirit’ would see her win – but it was not to be.

A relative said she is from a close-knit family and told of their sadness that she didn’t reach out and ask them for help when her mother died suddenly in her arms – and she was evicted from the family home.

The social media influencer was the second campmate to be voted out of the jungle after winning the least amount of public votes

Speaking exclusively to MailOnline, the relative recently said: ‘All of Nella’s siblings and other members of her family, wherever they are in the world, are watching her in the jungle – and praying that she wins.

‘We are very proud of her achievements, it’s amazing what she’s done. She is showing the fighting spirit of the Congolese people and we are all with her.

‘There is a lot of love for her as we are a caring Congolese family even though we live in different countries. She also has an aunt, her mother’s sister, who lives in London. And her father came from a very large, well to do family.

‘There are lots of them in the Congo and others spread across Europe. She could have turned to anyone of us for help.’
