Julia Morris is ill and blames a fellow Gold Logie nominee.
The I’m A Celebrity presenter attended the Logie nominations last week (where she was nominated for the top award) and fell ill shortly afterwards.
The 56-year-old was quick to point the finger at fellow gold medalist Larry Emdur, with whom she posed at the event.
“Larry, I think you gave me man flu. All that air kissing on Gold Logie day got to us both,” she wrote on Instagram.
“How’s your cough? Hoik-ter! I hope you get better (the sick photo is from last Thursday. I went to bed). I’m getting much better).”
Larry was quick to respond in the comments, joking: ‘My dear Julia, you can’t live in the jungle for three months eating rhino scrotum, snake anuses and llama snot and then blame me for making you feel bad.
‘I hope you get better soon, I hope you don’t have to withdraw from the Gold Logie race, although I would give you $200 (in cash) to do so.’
Julia also posed alongside Robert Irwin that day, but he appears to have avoided the virus.

In March, Morris revealed the “creepy” question she often gets asked about her new IAC co-host Robert.
The veteran host of the jungle-themed reality show expressed her frustration at being regularly questioned about whether she was flirting with Robert, 20.
“That would be creepy. It’s a question I’ve been asked for the last four months,” he said. news.com.au.
Julia also said the dynamic would be different to the cheeky relationship she had with Dr Chris Brown, who left the reality show to work for Channel Seven last year.
“I tell everyone not to put the icing on the cake while it’s still in the oven, because he’s still growing… I don’t feel like I’m taking care of Robert like a mother. I feel like we’re on equal terms,” she said.

This comes after Julia recently gushed about Robert and had nothing but good things to say about her young co-host.
Speaking to Triple M WA’s Robbie Von, Julia opened up about her “special bond” with the young wildlife warrior.
“Everything I thought I knew about Robert Irwin, well, I can quadruple that with absolute brilliance,” he said.
‘I mean, we’ve actually been friends for a long time, but we’ve spent a lot of time together, especially over the last few months preparing to go into the jungle.’
