While Heidi and Spencer Pratt made claims that they were tortured while participating in NBC’s new show “I’m a Celebrity.Get Me Outta Here,” an on-set source says the allegations are bogus.

The “Hills” stars were kept in the Costa Rican jungle’s “Lost Chamber” for 14 hours, but the insider reported that during that time they were given rations.  “Any accusations that Spencer and Heidi were harmed are untrue.”

Spencer’s sister Stephanie Pratt, on the other hand, took to her blog to condemn the treatment.  “I’m really saddened to hear that nbc felt it was ok to punish speidi so harshly-and torture them as if they were criminals-that Heidi was…rushed to the hospital and has an IV in her arm after being locked in a dark room for 3 days w no food or water. Pls pray she will be ok.”

But the insider refutes Stephanie’s statements, saying, “There was no danger, no life-threatening situations-in fact, they were actually protected from the elements, unlike the other contestants.  When they came out, they were happy and in good spirits.”
