"Natasha Exelby has spoken about the "dark place" she faced after her unceremonious sacking from a now defunct Channel Ten breakfast show after just 16 days in the job.
The news journalist, who was also involved in a viral on-air TV gaffe while presenting ABC News 24 in 2017, told her camp mates Angie Kent, Richard Reid and Justine Schofield on I'm A Celebrity ... Get Me Out Of Here! on Thursday's episode that she was told of her axing from Wake Up in a carpark by the show's executive producer, Adam Boland, 45 minutes before it was publicly announced.
"The ratings were terrible, I don’t think I was particularly glowing, so 16 days into it something had to give and that was me," Exelby said."
Speaking at time, Boland said Exelby didn't gel with her co-presenters Natarsha Belling and James Mathison.
"Chemistry is everything at breakfast and, right now, I don't think the balance is correct. It's up to producers to fix those things," he said."
