The Voice UK: Are Ricky Wilson And Will.i.am Feuding Behind-The-Scenes?
The Voice UK judges are not one big happy family behind-the-scenes, if reports are to be believed.
After Boy George and Paloma Faith rowed on-camera during Saturday night’s show, new reports are claiming that tensions have been building between Ricky Wilson and will.i.am off-camera.
In fact, it’s believed that the pair no longer talk unless the cameras are rolling, with their feud being described as ‘toxic’.
A source told The Sun: “Ricky and Will just don’t like each other.
“Will doesn’t respect Ricky at all as a judge because he thinks he goes for people like him. Will on the other hand, tries to go for different people.
“He has made it clear that he doesn’t understand why he is on the panel with him. And Ricky has definitely got the message.
“For Ricky’s part, he dislikes Will too, and it drives him mad that he is always late for filming the shows. He thinks it is disrespectful.”
The source went on to claim that there is a ‘nasty atmosphere’ backstage now, adding: “You can feel the dislike between them simmering away on set.”
Yikes.
A spokesperson for the show declined to comment, while Ricky’s spokesman denied the claims.
