Jimmy Bullard quits I’m A Celeb SA final, sparking huge row
Bullard explains his exit from the I’m A Celeb South Africa finale, triggering a heated clash with Adam Thomas as the finale unfolded.
Jimmy Bullard has explained the reason behind quitting this year’s I’m A Celeb South Africa, saying there were heavy reasons he didn’t want to go into and that he had spoken with producers and fellow campmates before announcing his decision. He noted that if he returned home and brought Adam back with him, he would receive full pay, money that would be big for his family.
The former footballer also raised concerns about Adam Thomas, claiming abusive, aggressive and intimidating behaviour that wasn’t aired on screen. The confrontation helped drive a chaotic tone for the live final and left viewers with a tense, shouted exchange between Bullard and Thomas. Presenters Ant and Dec, along with several other campmates, rejected the allegations, but the moment underscored the night’s dramatic atmosphere.
Emmerdale’s Adam Thomas was crowned South Africa champion, though his win came amid a performance of high drama and dispute that many described as the most chaotic live final in recent memory. The finale’s notoriety centered on the fiery row, overshadowing the status of the winner and prompting continued discussion about what truly happened behind the scenes.
