Laurina Fleure's boyfriend defends the reality star over her bug-eating breakdown: 'She's not a princess'

Laurina Fleure was trolled on social media after refusing to eat a bull's eye and blood-soaked maggots on I'm A Celebrity…Get Me Out of Here! overnight.

And now, her boyfriend Lewis Romano has come to the defence of the reality star, telling the world that she's "not a princess".

Listen to the snippet above from KIIS 1065's Kyle & Jackie O show to hear the Melbourne-based businessman explaining to the hosts that his girlfriend shunned the challenge due to medical reasons.

The SpotJobs.com founder also spoke about how different Laurina is from how she was portrayed on The Bachelor's second season. The 31-year-old was branded as the villain of the series.

Her most famous moment on the show was when she complained about having to eat a "dirty street pie" instead of a lavish meal. Watch below…

Yep, you're never living that one down, Laurina.
