Domenica Calarco has publicly apologised to Kerri-Anne Kennerley for calling her the C-word on national television during a fiery exchange.
In an interview with news.com.au, the former Married At First Sight confirmed that she used unacceptable language and conceded that she was struggling mentally due to sleep and food deprivation.
The confrontation occurred on Ten’s I’m A Celebrity … Get Me Out Of Here! two weeks ago but was not broadcast by the network, Kerri-Anne Kennerley made the decision to exit the program hours after the outburst occured.
Calarco has now revealed she privately asked the producers to pass on an apology to Kennerley, who left the jungle abruptly after the clash.
“I haven’t spoken to her personally because I was in the jungle, but I had passed on a message to her,” Calarco said. “I have apologised for my language; it was unbecoming. I wouldn’t use that language again, now that I’m fed.”
Calarco revealed that Kennerley’s refusal to attempt any of the difficult challenges to help “get her campmates fed” had been the source of her frustrations and had led to the outburst. Fellow celebrity Ian ‘Dicko’ Dickson also revealed after his exit last week that Calarco had called Kennerley a “c**t” in scenes that didn’t make it to air.
Despite the explosive scenes, Calarco was surprised by Kennerley’s decision to leave the jungle after just three days. “I kind of thought KAK had a little bit more in her. I didn’t think she’d throw in the towel,” she said before adding, “But she did have to get back to Port Douglas on April 22 for a golf tournament, so…”
Calarco, who emerged as a red-hot favourite on this season of I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! before her shock elimination on Monday night, admitted that she was not proud of the language she used but stood by how she felt.
