Ouch: According to New Idea , he left tennis pro Alicia Molik ‘trembling and crying’ after branding her a ‘dumb c**t’ during an expletive rant

In a recent episode, Ant was seen shouting centimetres from Alicia’s face after she failed to complete a challenge in the way he wanted. 

One recruit, who wished to remain anonymous, told the publication: ‘He was standing nose-to-nose with her, virtually spitting in her face saying “You are a dumb c**t.”

‘Alicia was trembling and crying, and he just kept going at her. I think it was the worst dressing down I have witnessed and obviously the most shocking incident on this season’s show.’

Despite being aware that Ant often scold contestants in a fiery manner as part of the experience, the source said they thought this incident was ‘totally unacceptable,” adding: ‘Ant needs to go.’

‘I enjoyed training like a demon for that period of time and it was a great experience. But it was brutal and it’s torture and that is not fun at all.’

When asked if she enjoyed the experience, she responded: ‘I can’t say I enjoyed the course but I did enjoy the camaraderie with people you have never met before.’
