I’m A Celeb fans say ‘something doesn’t seem right’ as they accuse camp mate of ‘playing up to the cameras’ after ‘clue’
I'M A Celeb fans have accused one camp mate of ‘playing up to the cameras’ after spotting a ‘clue’.
Some have said that the reality star is acting up for the show, because even though he has ADHD, he wasn’t like this on the other programmes he has appeared on.
Sam was on Made In Chelsea between 2013 and 2021, and also placed on Celebrity Big Brother in 2017.
The star was diagnosed with ADHD (attention deficit hyperactivity disorder) and autism last year.
One said on Instagram: "Sam is playing up to the camera, I understand he has ADHD but he wasn't like this in Big Brother."
Meanwhile another wrote on Digital Spy: "Sam - comes across phoney. He was nothing like this on CBB."

However Sam has a huge fan base and many rushed to the comments section on Instagram to share their love.
One said: "He's brilliant. I get in mum mode when I hear the campmates mock him. I'm a mum of 3 adhd kids and they're perfect and wonderful just like Sam. Sam to win!!
Another chimed in: "Never in the history of this show has there been a super super fan like Sam his energy and enthusiasm at anything thrown at him is just great entertainment I really hope he wins."
A third added: "I bloody love him. He's just so grateful to be there and always smiling. What a beautiful human xx."
"SAM FOR KING OF THE JUNGLE 2023," a fourth said.
Sam battled ADHD for many years as it was undiagnosed.
The TV star then chronicled his journey to get answers in a Channel 4 documentary, Sam Thompson: Is This ADHD?.
Opening up, he said: “I’ve always known there was something slightly different about me, but it’s only since I’ve started to ‘adult’ a bit more that I’ve wanted to figure it out, because a lot of symptoms were getting worse."
Last night's instalment of the ITV show saw Sam, Tony Bellew, 40, and Marvin Humes volunteer to spend the night in the Misery Motel.
Some claimed the boxer's patience with the Made in Chelsea star was wearing thin.
Sam's girlfriend Zara McDermott took to Instagram to praise her man for his new title.
She wrote: "CAMP LEADER how do you think this is going to go? Ps he will be so so grateful for your votes thank you on behalf #teamSam."
