Roxy Jacenko has called former friend and SAS Australia co-star Candice Warner “delusional” if she thinks they could ever be friends again.

The PR queen, 40, told the Daily Mailon Wednesday that she could never be friends with Warner, 35, ever again, after their physical fight tore their friendship apart in the first episode.

“Someone who carries on punching you when your back is turned, and then sacks you some two weeks later as management after four years of hard work and support would need to be delusional to think I would want to be friends,” exclaimed Roxy.

“She might be hard up for friends and accept people doing that to her, but that’s not a friend I’m interested in keeping,” she added.

It comes after Warner said she was “disappointed” by their feud earlier in the day, claiming she was ready to mend things with Jacenko on the Kyle and Jackie O Show.

“Now that time has passed … it was never an intention, and I’d never want to lose a friend over something like this. I’m sorry she feels like this,” she said.

When asked by Kyle Sandilands if she wanted to make friends, she said: “Of course I do. From my end there’s no dramas whatsoever.

“It was more a business friendship … She’s a good person, she’s got a family.”

Roxy’s good friend Jackie ‘O’ Henderson said she thinks that the pair can “sort things out”, and Candice replied: “Absolutely. We can deal with it.”

Jackie said: “I haven’t spoken to Roxy about it so I don’t know, I’m just an observer.”

Last month, Jacenko called quits on her friendship with Warner after they fought in a brutal boxing match on SA S Australia.

Roxy explained on The Kyle and Jackie O Show that s he no longer considered her a friend when she decided to throw multiple blows to her face.

“You know what? Is [Candice] really my friend anymore? No,” Roxy said at the time.

“You know why I never hit back? She’s my mate and I’m not going to smack [her] in the face for other people’s entertainment,” she added.

“You wouldn’t continue punching when the person – me – turns their back and continue punching them in the back of the head. In boxing, that’s totally not allowed. The reality is, I can’t punch my then-friend in the face for people’s entertainment.”

“You look back and go, ‘F**k, I should have whacked her one,’ but you know what? I’m bigger than that and I’ve got respect for other people,” she continued.

Jacenko even claimed to have reached out to Warner after filming, in which she said she was “sacked” as her manager instead.

“No, she sacked me instead,” Roxy laughed. “People will always let you down. I believe after what I did for Candice that it was a real smack in the face, pardon the pun.”

Warner initially dismissed Jacenko’s claim that she didn’t fight back, telling Nova’s Fitzy and Wippa that “there was an opportunity before the fight to pull out, (but) we both chose to glove up, put the helmet on”.

Warner added: “She tried to (fight) but she couldn’t land a punch. That’s the honest truth. Ask anyone.”
