TULISA has broken her silence after deleting her I’m Famous posts and dissing the spin-off series.
The star appeared to hint that some of her campmates were “fakes” during an appearance on Lorraine earlier this week.

She also raised a few eyebrows after deleting all the content from her time in the jungle.
But N-Dubz singer Tulisa has now broken her silence in a bid to clear up the mystery.
Posting on Instagram this morning, Tulisa said: “Just doing a little video to clarify a few things.
“Just so you know, when I came out of the jungle, first of all I felt good, and then that night my friends went to bed.
“But since it’s been a long time for me, I can easily get overwhelmed.
“I just started feeling overwhelmed. I thought, you know what, I really just need to take some time for myself and just relax.”
She added: “You know, it’s okay to feel a little overwhelmed. I’ve been out of the spotlight for a long time.
“I’m still trying to overcome those things. I still have my little demons.
“This does not mean that I will hide under a rock for the next 10 years.
“It means I just need some time to process and get my thoughts straight.”
Tulisa rejects spin-off series I’m Famous after deleting the series from her social networks
Tulisa added: “Also, I just want to make it clear that I don’t think any of my comrades are fake.
“I spoke to Lorraine and what I was trying to say was typical of me thinking out loud.
“Everyone there will have one or two people with whom they are much closer than others.
“When we get out, that’s when you really see those friendships nurtured and they really become lifelong friends.
“I’m friends with everybody. I love my jungle friends, I love my jungle fam.
“But there are friendships that people have that really, really nurture and become lifelong friends.”
The mystery surrounding Tulisa Contostavlos’ I’m A Celeb exit deepened today after she failed to greet pal Melvin Odoom.
Fellow evicts Jane Moore and Dean McCullough, along with friends and family of other celebrities, cheered when Melvin arrived at their hotel after being evicted.
Jane and Dean hugged Melvin as he entered the lobby of the JW Marriott Hotel in Surfers Paradise, Australia.
But Tulisa, 36, was nowhere to be seen – a day after she deleted all traces of her time at the camp from her social media accounts.
Her pals Michelle McKenna and Daniel Johnson were also absent – despite saying hello to the other celebs.
Following her departure, Tulisa did not appear on ITV2 spin-off show Unpacked – which ITV said was for “personal reasons”.
But a source insisted there was “no bad blood” between Tulisa and ITV.
They told The Sun: “The situation will soon become clear.”
Tulisa’s Insta post in full
Just making a little video to clarify a few things. Just so you know, when I came out of the jungle, I felt good at first.
Then that night my friends went to bed and I was on my Instagram trying to make a nice little shift to some funny stuff.
I was getting a lot of attention, a lot of bombardment in the most positive sense.
But since it’s been a while for me, I can get overwhelmed easily.
And I just started feeling overwhelmed. I thought you know what, I really just need to take some time to myself and just relax.
All of this seems a bit much right now. I’m just going to archive all my jungle related stuff.
Then when the time is right and I have some time to process, I’ll make my own reels of all my best bits that I really love.
Because remember if I didn’t do my Instagram, the way everything is posted is not how I would do my Insta.
I would have one or two really good movies that would relate to the jungle and combine my time there.
I just wanted to clarify the reasons why I did it and just be honest.
You know, it’s okay to feel a little overwhelmed. I’ve been out of the limelight for a long time and I’m still trying to overcome those things.
I still have my little demons. That doesn’t mean I’m going to hide under a rock for the next 10 years.
This means I just need some time to process and get my thoughts straight.
Thanks to ITV and I’m a Celeb for being so patient with me and, you know, mental health is important.
Thanks for all the love and support I’ve had. I’m just a little overwhelmed – I’m a bit of an introvert.
I was in the jungle for two and a half weeks with people I had just met.
Then I came out and I saw loads and loads of attention and I was like wow, this is a lot.
And I just needed a little vent. I also just want to make it clear that I don’t think any of my comrades are fake.
I was having a conversation about Lorraine and what I was trying to say is that everyone will have one or two people in there that they are much closer to than others.
When we get out, we will see that these friendships are nurtured and we will be friends for life.
I love my jungle friends, but there will be friendships that people become like, ‘This is going to be my friend for life.’
That’s all I was trying to say.
The N-Dubz singer seems to have taken the result well and spoke highly of her camp mates in her exit interview with hosts Ant and Dec.
But after regaining control of her phone, Tulisa wasted little time in removing the jungle-themed posts her team had shared during her time in the jungle.
Eagle-eyed fans also noticed that she’s unfollowing Barry McGuigan on Instagram – the only friend from the camp she’s not digital friends with.
A source said: “Tulisa was in good spirits when she left the set, but it seems something happened to throw her off.
“She wasn’t in the mood for her post-show interviews and seems to have distanced herself from the program already. It’s all a bit of a mystery at the moment.”
‘FRIENDS FOR LIFE’
Tulisa chose not to appear on Unpacked and showrunner Joel Dommett announced the line-up change at the top of the show.
Former inmate Jill Scott acted along with family members of the remaining inmates.
An ITV spokesman said Tulisa had missed the show for “personal reasons” and there were rumors she was about to fly home early.
She has not been seen since her appearance on Lorraine in which she spoke about her time in the jungle.
Tulisa said that she had “friends for life”, but that not all her friends from the camp were sincere.
The former X Factor judge said: “I feel like I’m with some of them. I think they’ll be friends for life.
“But a lot of people on camera were very friendly, but the real test will be when they all come out.
“Are they going to bother texting in a group chat? Are they going to drive four hours to see each other? We’ll see.”
Tulisa formed a strong friendship with professional dancer Oti Mabuse.
She also revealed that she would love to see Alan Halsall, Maura Higgins and Melvin Odoom join Oti in the final four.
