I’m A Celebrity’s Myles Stephenson accuses Ellie Goulding’s MUM of racism amid
Twitter spat as he says she should be 'ashamed of herself'

• Tracey started the feud when she tweeted to ask why Myles was 'trying to sound like a black dude'
• Myles, 28, whose father is Jamaican, hit back with: 'Please tell me what a "black dude" sounds like Trace?'
• It is not clear if Myles was aware that Tracey is Ellie's mother at first, but his followers soon alerted him to the fact
• Tracey has since apologised but asserted that she is not racist and claimed her words were taken out of context
• She has since deleted her Twitter account and her Instagram has been set to private

who's mum says "dude"?

[Ammi]

...ouch, it was a silly thing to say...she thought that she was being flippant, but there was nothing flippant about it...as silly as it was, I hope she doesn’t get hate from this...she’s apologised and deleted her Twitter...hopefully, social media and the public/media will let her be...

I think the main problem is that she has the idea that black people sound a certain way. Odd stuff.

Sorry...but we should all think milf, before racist.

She was ignorant in all senses of the word. Daft cow.

As soon as people get confronted online then they DELETE their post or account these days how original . I actually like Ellie Goulding's music , what ashame her mum said something stupid. I thought it was obvious Myles is mixed race is she that ignorant? .

[Kizzy]

What would it matter whose mother she was? .. not sure why she apologised if she was just going to say her words were 'taken out of context' ... That's like saying sorry not sorry :/

Ellie most likely advised her mum step away from Twitter
The award for cringiest mum goes from kris to tracey

I know lots of black kids whose parents are proper cockney, but the kids themselves talk like they're from the outskirts of Kingston, Jamaica. It sounds stupid. It sounds even more stupid when white kids do it. The parents are all "apples and pears guvnor" and their children, born and raised here are like "Wagwan?" "Nagwan…"

So?

It's like me wandering around with a French accent, because my great, great grandmother was French. It's stupid and affected.

Not sure what I ever did to you firewire, for you to be so aggressive every time you post. If you can't be civil, don't bother in future.

Talking with an accent as a kid/teen to make you sound 'ard and 'gangsta' is quite common, most grow out of it. It's stupid, but harmless.

I agree. There's nothing cultural in speaking with an accent that isn't your own.

Kids get their accent and vocabulary from peers, not parents ... And colloquialisms and slang come from all sorts of sources. It doesn't really matter what their parents sound like.

My kids don't sound half-English because their mum has an English accent... They sound like their friends.

I don’t think that’s fair, though. You don’t necessarily pick up the way you speak from your parents, especially as you mature.

[Jake.]

Anyway, she’s an idiot and she’s ignorant at best.

Sounds like my mate Barry's life... him and his wife adopts kids..none of them talk like him ..all appreciate him though. ..nobody would believe an old drunk scotman though....so I don't bother appreciating what a cracking couple do for others on tibb.
