Wow, as a huge fan of I’m A Celeb, I have to say Friday night’s All Stars final was absolutely insane! Everyone’s saying it’s the most dramatic night reality TV has ever seen, and honestly, I completely agree. It aired on ITV and I was on the edge of my seat the entire time!
Things quickly escalated between Jimmy Bullard, 47, and Adam Thomas, 37, after they argued in the jungle. Bullard criticized Thomas’s behavior as “aggressive and threatening” and claimed ITV manipulated the footage to portray Thomas in a more favorable light.
Adam did apologize for what happened, but Jimmy was furious and demanded that ITV broadcast the complete recording. This led to an argument and caused the show’s hosts, Ant and Dec, to lose their grip on the situation.
Viewers took to social media to express their discomfort while watching the first-ever live final, with many saying it was more dramatic than any stage production they’d seen all year.
Those last five minutes on ‘I’m a Celebrity’ were the most chaotic in 25 years! I enjoy the excitement of live television, but David and Jimmy are really making fools of themselves. It’s pretty bad when even Ant and Dec, who are supposed to be neutral, have to call them out on their behavior. David is acting like a typical schoolyard bully.
I haven’t been posting much lately because I’ve been hooked on the aftermath of the ‘I’m a Celebrity’ finale – it’s been really dramatic!
Seriously, things escalated so quickly – can someone explain what happened? It feels like every season just spirals into complete chaos for no apparent reason.
The finale of ‘I’m a Celebrity’ was truly unforgettable! Gemma Collins is a total star, and Ant and Dec are beloved national figures. It was great to see them support Adam. The whole thing was wonderfully chaotic, and Ant and Dec had to intervene to manage it all.
So what happened in full?
Jimmy and Adam argued during a challenge on ‘I’m a Celebrity…’ when Jimmy jokingly said he wanted to leave the show, hoping to still get paid. He essentially wanted to quit without losing his salary.
He has been teamed up with Adam, and saying the words meant both men would be going home.
This made Adam very angry, and he was shown on camera using offensive language towards Jimmy, including a derogatory slur and repeated use of the F-word.
Jimmy later stated the conversation was even more unpleasant than initially reported, alleging that Adam also used a highly offensive slur and behaved in an aggressive, abusive, and intimidating manner.
Ant McPartlin, 50, explained that the show accurately reflected what occurred, though certain parts were cut because they weren’t suitable for television.
During the live finale, Jimmy explained that he said what he did because he had personal matters to attend to, but he also wanted to be fully compensated for his work.
Initially, the trial focused on eliminating contestants based on star ratings, which is why I selected Adam. But then you pointed out that the two lowest-ranked contestants would actually be going home, and that completely changed my thinking.
After that, I decided not to pick Adam. I was surprised to learn someone would be eliminated, as I’d assumed it was just about awarding stars.
He said someone from the production team contacted him to discuss his contract. They told him he’d only receive a portion of his pay if he left while at camp, but would get the full amount if he left during a trial period.
Jimmy was angry about how the show was edited and confronted Ant and Dec. He explained that he wouldn’t tolerate abusive, aggressive, or intimidating behavior, pointing out they witnessed it firsthand but didn’t show it on the broadcast.
‘You didn’t show any of the C-bombs, it’s a liberty.’
Ant explained they didn’t broadcast the offensive language because it’s not allowed on air. He also clarified that, having been present, he didn’t find it threatening, repeating to Jim that he was there to witness it firsthand.
As a longtime supporter, I was really struck by what Adam said. He clearly took complete ownership of what happened, and he admitted things were incredibly intense for him at the time. It felt really honest and genuine.
I genuinely care about Jimmy and feel for him. I’ve apologized to him many times, and I’m listening to his concerns. All I can do now is offer another apology.
I didn’t like how I came across, and I’ve never presented myself that way before or since. I’m sorry, Jimmy.
David made a joking comment, but Ant and Dec quickly told him to stop talking over them.
David explained that he prefers to be honest and straightforward. He believes there’s been a lot of manipulation to portray Adam as a victim in order to gain public sympathy.
There was a lot of playful teasing between us, though much of it wasn’t shown. Now, I think it’s time to share what really happened.
Sinitta angrily left the stage and confronted the audience, telling them, “You didn’t experience what I did. It was aggressive and frightening – we were all shaken up.”
Jimmy called out, saying that even if Adam apologized, it wasn’t okay to be aggressive, abusive, or intimidating.
I strongly disagree with your claim that wasn’t aggressive, abusive, or intimidating. You can’t honestly say that. Let’s show everyone the footage and play it right now so they can judge for themselves!
When Jimmy asked Harry Redknapp, the former Tottenham Hotspur manager and winner of ‘I’m A Celebrity,’ for a comment, Redknapp, 79, hesitated and didn’t say anything.
The argument ended with Ant telling Jimmy, ‘Okay, let’s just stop here. We’re not going to see eye to eye on this.’
The presenters, normally very composed, seemed genuinely frustrated at moments – with Ant pointing out to both Bullard and Haye that they hadn’t been present.
David challenged Adam about his use of a derogatory slur against Jimmy in South Africa, asking if he still thought he deserved to win. Gemma intervened, telling David to be quiet and placing a comforting arm around him.
‘Yeah after that challenge I do think I deserve to win’, Adam proudly replied.
David suggested, “Maybe you should ask Jimmy if he feels he earned the win? A lot of relevant footage was left out. I really like Jimmy, but it seems like Adam is portraying himself as the victim.”
Dec hit back: ‘David, you were gone. You weren’t even there!’
“Can we just let the finalists speak?” Adam asked, as Gemma reached out to restrain David while the studio descended into complete chaos.
Despite Jimmy’s denials, many viewers believe he unfairly targeted Adam. They point to an earlier video where Dec explained the challenges would be done in pairs, suggesting Jimmy had pre-selected his partners.
‘And your fate going forward will depend on how well you perform during each trial in that pair.’
People who watched the finale have revealed surprising details, alleging that Adam destroyed his winning crown and tossed the show’s mascot after David apparently provoked him, according to footage not previously shown.
New video footage reportedly shows Adam taking off his crown and throwing it on the ground.
According to The Sun, David apparently provoked Adam, leading to the incident. The boxer is said to have told the Emmerdale actor he didn’t deserve to win.
Reports suggest Jimmy is preparing to sue ITV and may have been gathering evidence during the show’s finale to support his case.
According to The Sun, Gemma Collins – a friend of Adam’s – reportedly called David a very unpleasant person and described both the boxer and footballer Jimmy as a disgrace to reality television.
David and Jimmy both say they were unfairly removed from the final round by the show’s producers. David claims it was because he was attempting to be honest about what happened.
As Jimmy and David left the ITV studios with security nearby, fans overheard them talking about being asked to leave.
‘We’ve been kicked out the show. What’s that about? Genuinely,’ David said.
Speaking to someone on the phone, David said: ‘Jimmy tell them what happened?’
Jimmy replied: ‘We got kicked out.’
Asked by a fan: ‘Why have you been kicked out?’, David responded: ‘For trying to tell the truth.’
After the historic match, they waited for their rides home, completely absorbed in their phones.
Gemma called Jimmy and David’s actions ‘disgusting’ and explained that their behavior, which led to their removal from the final, made the rest of the cast feel very uncomfortable.
During the show’s finale, a disagreement escalated when Jimmy claimed Adam was behaving in a way that was harmful and frightening. This caused both Sinitta and the former TOWIE star, age 45, to leave the stage, and David reacted with an angry outburst.
Gemma publicly expressed her support for a decision, sharing a video and adding that she felt the behavior of others on set had been unacceptable and made the entire cast uncomfortable. She believed the right choice had been made.
Someone who attended the show’s finale says there was even more excitement and conflict happening behind the scenes on Friday, away from the cameras.
On Instagram, a fan reported seeing former boxer David, who had previously been accused of bullying Adam, attempt to reconcile by offering a handshake.
She described the on-stage argument as chaotic, like something you’d see on the Jerry Springer show, and it upset Ashley Roberts and Scarlett Moffatt so much that they were crying during the break in filming.
A fan reported that after David initially heckled Adam, David tried to be friendly with all the finalists during a commercial break. He went to shake their hands, but Adam completely refused, making it clear he didn’t want anything to do with it.
Jimmy explained why he was leaving camp and discussed his contract, but David kept interrupting, causing the audience to boo him.
Let me tell you, the atmosphere was intense. A fan told me that Sinitta actually left the stage, visibly upset, saying the energy was really aggressive and intimidating. Then Gemma Collins followed suit, walking off as well. It didn’t stop there – Ashley and Scarlett both started to cry. Honestly, it was total chaos! A real emotional rollercoaster for everyone involved.
Okay, so apparently something definitely happened backstage during one of the breaks! When they came back out, you could just tell things were tense – they looked totally furious with each other. I mean, seriously, the energy was completely different, and it was obvious something went down. I’m dying to know what it was!
Sources say Jimmy is considering a lawsuit against ITV and may have intentionally created drama during Friday’s show finale to build his case.
During the final match, Jimmy was seen looking at his phone. According to a source, he may have been checking notes and even recording the event as evidence to support his arguments.
For Jimmy’s lawsuit against ITV to succeed, he needs to demonstrate that Adam’s actions were abusive, aggressive, and intimidating, as this would violate their contract.
Jimmy repeatedly called Adam ‘abusive, aggressive, and intimidating’ – a phrase reportedly included in the celebrity’s contracts to define unacceptable conduct. He used this exact wording nine times.
Jimmy didn’t just repeat the comment; he also showed clips of other campmates admitting Adam had gone too far.
According to a source, he pulled out his phone to look at notes during a conversation, and people wondered if he was secretly recording what the cast was saying. Those familiar with the situation believe he was gathering evidence, and the network is preparing for potential consequences due to his dominant behavior during the exchange.
Sinitta has publicly supported Jimmy and David, releasing a statement on Sunday about her experiences with them.
Sinitta has released a new statement acknowledging that calling someone a ‘bully’ is a serious claim. However, she also expressed her happiness that Adam was ultimately the winner.
In a recent post, she expressed her disappointment that everyone didn’t have a chance to share their thoughts last night, explaining that the discussion felt rushed and chaotic with people interrupting each other. She said that before leaving, she simply wanted to say:
It upsets me that people are calling each other names and that we’re all feeling hurt. I really enjoyed my time with everyone, even though one thing was tough, and I hope we can all remember the good times and what we learned. I care about them all very much.
I think calling someone a ‘bully’ is a really serious claim, and shouldn’t be said casually. There are enough genuinely harmful people out there already, and it’s unfair—and potentially damaging—to label someone as a bully when they aren’t.
I appreciated Adam’s apology – it showed a lot of maturity. It’s easy to misinterpret friendships and playful teasing when you’re not part of them, so I just ask people to consider all perspectives.
I want to be clear: I don’t bully anyone either. I’ve been getting a lot of harsh and abusive messages online lately. I get that people are enthusiastic about the show and want to support who they like, and I respect that, but that doesn’t give them the right to use foul language or call me names. I would never treat anyone that way.
Just because you call me ‘Grandma’ doesn’t mean it’s okay to be disrespectful. Would you talk to your actual grandmother like that? Where’s the kindness and respect? Social media shouldn’t be a place to find people to attack and encourage others to join in.
She shared that being on the show was an incredible, life-changing experience. She also mentioned that when she began her career, social media didn’t exist, so navigating this aspect of fame has been new for her.
People have called me names – said I lack talent, am unattractive, desperate, or no longer relevant – but I don’t believe those things are true, and honestly, saying such things is a form of bullying. I just ask that when you watch my videos, you remember they reflect my views from that time. My opinions have naturally changed as I’ve grown, but one core belief remains the same.
I care about everyone involved, and I’m grateful for all the dedication and support. That chapter is now closed. We made it through the challenges of the jungle, and Adam Thomas is our new leader. I genuinely wish him the best, as I always have.
‘I’m just learning how to cope with this side of things. S x.’
Shortly after the show ended, Ant McPartlin had an uncomfortable encounter with Jimmy Carr while leaving with his wife, Anne-Marie Corbett.
Oh my gosh, you won’t BELIEVE this! Ant totally acted like it was nothing when Jimmy was trying so hard to talk to him – he just laughed! It was awful! Thankfully, before things could get really awkward, a security guard had to intervene. I was dying! Seriously, the way Ant just brushed it off… I can’t even.
According to Katie Hind of the Daily Mail, while viewers saw Ant clash with Jimmy Bullard on TV, it was actually Dec who had a heated argument with the footballer when the cameras were off.
An argument broke out between Dec and Ant, which prompted security guards to intervene. Ant became upset and left to vape, commenting on how chaotic things had become. The audience was shocked by the scene.
Scarlett Moffatt, who is pregnant, became emotional and criticized her fellow campmates for spoiling Adam’s chance to fully enjoy his victory.
She discussed her feelings on the ITV after-show ‘Unpacked,’ publicly supporting Adam after he was named the winner of the show.
Adam didn’t show up at the Unpacked event. After this surprise, Scarlett was asked by the Unpacked hosts, Kemi Rodgers and Sam Thompson, how she was feeling about it.
Gemma, Sinitta, and Ashley were also there, and expressed their hopes for Adam’s happiness. Ashley said, ‘I really hope Adam enjoys this. He’s been through a lot, and I just want him to take a moment to appreciate it, because I don’t think he believes he deserves it.’
Scarlett, clearly moved, said he truly earned his success. She explained that the experience was challenging, but he performed brilliantly and was a supportive friend to everyone.
It’s a shame he couldn’t celebrate a victory, but congratulations to Mo, Harry, and Craig!
Adam’s wife Caroline later called David and Jimmy a ‘pack of vultures’.
After the events unfolded, Adam’s wife, Caroline, expressed her shock and stated that genuinely good people are ultimately rewarded, not overlooked.
What should have been a happy celebration quickly devolved into something shocking – it felt like witnessing a group of vultures tearing into something, a truly disturbing sight.
I was shocked by the awful behavior I witnessed on national television last night. It was completely inappropriate for a family-friendly show that’s meant to be lighthearted and enjoyable.
That was incredibly painful to watch, and absolutely not amusing. As a wife, I’m heartbroken and will never forget the ordeal my husband went through.
Despite feeling deeply hurt, Adam managed to remain calm and found the strength to defend himself, yet again.
Congratulations, my dear! I’m so proud of you for staying true to who you are. You didn’t just win the competition, you won the hearts of people all over the country!
You were a wonderful role model, demonstrating the qualities everyone admires in a good person. You lived with grace, kindness, and honesty – values all parents hope to instill in their children.
The day after the show aired, Adam revealed it had been incredibly difficult for him, almost overwhelming. He also expressed frustration with those who had tried to undermine his confidence, while celebrating his wife’s birthday.
He wrote about facing life’s challenges by following his heart, no matter how difficult things became. He admitted it wasn’t easy, and there were times he almost gave up, but he remained true to who he was, and that’s something he’ll always cherish.
He continued, explaining that he’d learned a valuable lesson: when someone tries to bring you down, it reveals more about their own character than about you. This experience surprisingly revealed his inner strength – not through achievements or praise, but simply by remaining kind, humble, and authentic.
Family is the most important thing in my life, and my wife has always been my greatest support. Happy birthday to my amazing wife! You’ve helped me through difficult times and always reminded me of how strong I am. I truly wouldn’t be the person I am today without you.
Okay, seriously, hearing Adam speak just… gets me. He was saying thank you to all of us who stuck by him, who believed in him, and honestly, it was so emotional. He said it meant more than words could ever say, and I totally get that! But the best part? He said he doesn’t hold any bad feelings towards the people who doubted him or tried to tear him down. Like, can you believe that? He’s just… amazing. It just proves what I’ve always known – he’s a genuinely good person, and I’m so proud to be a fan!
I’ve already achieved what truly matters: I have love, I’m happy, and I’ve remained true to who I am. These are things no one can ever take from me, and I hope you can find the same fulfillment.
On Monday, Sinitta appeared on Good Morning Britain and doubled down in her support of David.
She apologized to her fans and acknowledged the issues surrounding social media and accusations of bullying that have been circulating.
David definitely raised his voice and was trying to get his message across, but it ended up seeming like he was bullying someone. Throughout the camp experience, there were several instances where David himself asked others to stop and calm down, especially during disagreements with Adam.
I did talk to David about it. Adam was stirring up trouble, acting like a couple of eight-year-olds. I felt stuck in the middle, like I was being asked to get one of them in trouble while the other one caused problems. As soon as I realized what was happening, I stepped back and told them to handle it themselves; I wasn’t needed anymore.
Harry discussed the show on talkSPORT Monday, comparing the experience to appearing on an episode of Jeremy Kyle.
Honestly, when I first walked in, I was completely thrown! I swear, I thought I’d accidentally wandered onto the set of The Jeremy Kyle Show! The energy was just…intense. So much drama, so much arguing! I kept looking around, thinking, ‘Wait a minute, this isn’t right. I must be in the wrong studio!’ It was wild.
The crowd was incredibly loud and chaotic. It was a really frightening experience – I felt completely out of place and just wanted to escape. That’s all I could think about saying.
David Haye was performing well, but Andy, both of us are used to the atmosphere of dressing rooms – we’ve grown up around it.
Both of you have spent your lives involved in football, and you’re used to tough talk. What happened wasn’t particularly harsh compared to the things you’ve likely heard in locker rooms over the years.
Honestly, it just… escalated, you know? It started as harmless fun, just a bit of back-and-forth, but people are so sensitive these days! They couldn’t handle a little playful teasing, and suddenly it blew up into this massive thing. It’s crazy, really. I just wish everyone could take a joke!
Ashley discussed the show’s finale on Heart FM, explaining that the playful joking between the contestants went too far. She mentioned Adam’s reaction was unusual for him, but he felt bad about it and apologized.
She also denied reports that David attempted to reconcile with Adam at the live finale of ‘I’m a Celebrity,’ and clarified that he wasn’t hoping to win based on pity.
It was complete chaos, honestly. It’s a shame Adam became so well-known for that moment, because all the surrounding drama probably stopped him from really enjoying it.
He went through a difficult experience, and it’s a shame their conversation didn’t go well. They had a chance to talk things through calmly and resolve their issues, but it unfortunately turned into an argument with unacceptable behavior.
I was upset and hurt by how things unfolded, especially considering everything happening in the world. We all shared a difficult experience, and I wish we could have talked it through like mature adults. It’s a TV show meant to be enjoyable, and their actions just left me a little disappointed.
