MARNIE Simpson has come under fire from Celebrity SAS viewers after quitting the show.
The Geordie Shore star, 32, was branded a ‘brat’ by those watching at home as she threw a tantrum and ditched her partner during a testing challenge.

Marnie was paired with Anthony Agogo and they were asked to pull 130 pounds of kit in a race across three kilometres of icy terrain.
But it wasn’t long until the reality star decided it wasn’t for her as she struggled to put on her snow boots and stormed off.
Speaking to the camera before the task she insisted: “I don’t think I’m a diva. I can only do what’s physically possible. So if I’m doing something that I don’t believe is physically possible, I can’t do it.
“I just feel like a lot of people are just each man for themselves, kind of world. I mean, I’m not like that.
“I wouldn’t leave a man behind. But ultimately, not many people are like that.”
But when it came down to it, a frustrated Marnie moaned: “I just wanna go. I just wanna go home. I’ve accepted it. I’m just not cut out for it. It is what it is.”
Fans of the show were not impressed with her antics and took to social media to slam her.
One person wrote: “That Marnie…. Pathetic! Has the attitude of a 14 year old. Must be about 40 … shocking.”
A second wrote: “Spoilt brat.”
“Yep, still can’t stand Marnie! Spoilt brat who’s never worked a day in her life,” commented a third.
And a fourth said: “#saswhodareswins not sure who the young woman was who quit to leave, shes a social media personality ? But quitting because she can’t get some snow spikes to go on your boots is just showing how spoilt some people are.”
The reality star previously admitted she “wasn’t ready” to do the series so soon after giving birth.
Despite the show kicking off next week (September 26), it was actually shot over a year ago.
In fact, filming took place less than a year after Marnie gave birth to her second child.

Speaking to The Mirror she said: “I don’t think I realised just how tough it was going to be I think I was being a bit delusional.
“Mentally and physically I just wasn’t ready for it.”
Reflecting on whether she would sign up to Celeb SAS again, she said: “But I do think I’d tackle things differently if I ever did a show like this again.
“I’d make sure I was in better shape, both physically and mentally. “
