Sinitta says Adam Thomas’ explosive meltdown on I’m A Celebrity was ‘uncomfortable and disturbing’ to watch and reveals letting him stay in the competition felt like ‘rewarding a child for throwing a massive tantrum’

Sinitta opened up about Adam Thomas’ huge meltdown on I’m A Celebrity and insisted ITV bosses should have intervened sooner.

Adam allegedly called Jimmy Bullard the “C-word” in an explosive confrontation when he pulled the plug on the show mid-trial.early last year.

Sinitta claimed that the whole ordeal took almost an hour in front of other shocked stars.

He said: ‘I found this very disturbing and disturbing. He was very explosive, very aggressive. I was very visibly upset and shaken by this. I was telling anyone who would listen: “Why isn’t anyone stopping this? Please stop it. This isn’t right.”

‘I wish it had disbanded sooner. I look at everyone around me like: “Someone do something!”

Sinitta, 62, revealed Jimmy and Adam were ‘left to their own devices’ as the show’s producers tried to prevent other celebrities from witnessing the incident.

He added: ‘I was thinking: “If one of them throws a punch and someone gets hurt we’re all going to really regret it. Like please stop this.”

Sinitta also said Sun She said she supported Adam by voting for him to stay despite the outburst because she felt ‘feeling sorry for him’.

Although he agreed to keep her inside, the shooter added that it felt like ‘rewarding a kid for throwing a huge tantrum.’

Sinitta made a long statement on Instagram after the final, writing: ‘Most of the videos about my campmates were pre-recorded as a souvenir of my memories of them. I made them so that I wouldn’t forget what I felt and thought at that moment.

‘Some of these thoughts even came from journal entries I wrote in South Africa. I didn’t want to change these videos based on what I saw later in the show because edits can sometimes change the look of situations and people.

‘I wish everyone had been given a proper chance to talk last night so there wouldn’t have been a rush as people tried to talk to each other.

‘All I wanted to say before I left was this: I hate being called bullies and having bad blood between us. Despite a difficult event, I had a great time with everyone and I truly hope we can hold on to the life lessons and incredible experiences we shared together. ‘I love them all.’

He added: ‘I also think the word ‘bully’ is a very serious accusation. It’s something that I don’t believe should be used lightly. There are already too many truly bad people in the world, and it’s dangerous to label good people that way.

‘The man apologized and I thought that was very adult behavior. I also believe that friendships and banter can sometimes be misunderstood from the outside. I just ask people to try to see both sides.

‘I also want to say this clearly: I am not a bully either.

‘I have been subjected to a lot of verbal abuse on social media over the last two weeks. I understand that people are passionate about the show and support their favorites, and I respect that, but I don’t deserve to be cursed at or called names. I would never treat anyone like this.

‘You call me ‘Grandma’, but would you talk to your grandmother that way? What about kindness? What about respect? Social media shouldn’t be about finding someone to hate and then everyone joining in.

‘I had an amazing, life-changing time on this programme. When I first started this business, there was no social media as such, so this aspect of it was unexpected for me.

‘You can call me talentless, ugly, helpless, exaggerated, uninterested… but these are not true and ironically, this behavior is also bullying.

‘So please watch my videos knowing that these are my initial ideas at the time. Some thoughts may naturally develop after watching the series, but nothing has changed.

‘I still love everyone. I truly appreciate your passion and loyalty. Now the experience is over. We have all survived the African jungles and trials and we have a new King, Adam Thomas, I wish him good luck. I always was.

‘I’m just learning how to deal with this side of things. Sx’

Sinitta took to Instagram on Saturday to share a lengthy statement about her time on the show following the chaotic live finale.

The live finale descended into chaos last night before a tearful-looking Adam was crowned the Legend of the Jungle.

During the finale, Jimmy angrily shouted live on air, accusing the show of ‘editing the clips’ in a showdown that will go down in TV history.

ITV veterans Ant and Dec failed to follow proceedings after Jimmy accused Adam of being ‘abusive, aggressive and intimidating’ during an abusive argument on the pre-recorded show last year.

Ant and Dec gave Jimmy the opportunity to speak out after Jimmy allegedly said “I’m a celebrity” during one of the trials and Adam called him the “C-word” in an explosive confrontation that left Adam in danger of going home.

The conflict became so heated that Gemma Collins and Sinitta stormed off the stage and Jimmy walked around each campmate and asked if Adam’s behavior was ‘aggressive and abusive’.

The confrontation that led to the explosion ended with Ant telling Jimmy: ‘Okay, let’s leave it at that. After a lot of back and forth, we will agree to disagree.

While great TV is being produced, clashes between celebrities and presenters will likely call the show’s future into question.

Jimmy admitted he ‘threw Adam under the bus’ as he walked out of a hearing sparking the explosive confrontation that left viewers at home in shock.

The former football player admitted that he had to leave due to personal reasons and that he would not receive his full salary if he did not say ‘I’m a Celebrity’ in the fight.

‘Listen, Adam and you all may be mad at me and I totally threw him under the bus, I understand and I’m going to wear this,’ Jimmy said.

‘But I don’t stand for someone being abusive and aggressive and scary, I don’t stand for that.’

Inviting Ant and Dec to share their views on the matter, Jimmy said: ‘You [pointing to the hosts] We were there and you showed none of it [footage].

“You didn’t show any of your C-bombs, that’s a freedom,” Jimmy fumed.

Ant argued: ‘The reason we haven’t released the C-bomb is because it’s unbroadcast.

The live finale descended into chaos last night before a teary-eyed Adam was crowned the Legend of the Jungle.

‘I was there and I didn’t think it was scary. ‘I was there, Jim.’

David, who was accused of ‘bullying’ Adam during the show, disagreed with Ant and backed the former footballer as he demanded answers as to why Adam made obscene remarks to Jimmy.

The man fired back at David and told him to “let the finalists talk,” which drew applause from the crowd in the live audience.

When the man got the chance to speak he said: ‘I take full responsibility for my actions and yes, emotions were definitely running high at that moment.

‘I have nothing but love for Jimmy at that moment. I have apologized to Jimmy many times and I take everything he has said into consideration and all I can do is apologize.

‘I don’t want to show myself this way and I have never shown myself this way before or after. ‘I’m sorry Jimmy.’

“That’s a funny way of showing it,” David interjected before Ant and Dec angrily told him to cut it off.

David continued: ‘I like to say it how I see it, I like to keep it real and what I see is a lot of editing to make this poor guy look pretty. [pointing to Adam] He should be the victim so that the people will support him.

‘We all joked back and forth, most of it stopped on their end. But I think it’s time for the truth.’

Sinitta jumped off the stage and shouted at the audience: ‘Guys, you weren’t there, I was there and it was aggressive and abusive, we were shaking.’

Later, Gemma, Adem’s close friend, followed him off the stage.

Jimmy shouted in the background: ‘You can’t be aggressive, abusive and scary, it doesn’t matter if Adam apologizes.

‘I won’t take you [Ant] You can’t say that by saying it isn’t offensive, abusive, or scary. Show it, let everyone watch, let’s play now!’

This year’s All Stars series has been plagued by bullying arguments and controversial arguments between feuding cast-mates Adam, Jimmy Bullard and David Haye.

Ant and Dec concluded: ‘Okay, let’s leave it at that. ‘We’ll agree to disagree with Jim.’

After airing Adam’s latest eating attempt on Friday night’s show, which fans branded ‘terrible’, Gemma Collins said: ‘He will forever be my hero, Adam. He so deserves to win!’

David, who looked clearly unhappy with the praise Adam was receiving, interrupted hosts Ant and Dec to ask: ‘After calling Jimmy the C-word a few times, do you think he deserves to win this?’

“Yes, after this fight, I think I deserve to win,” the man replied proudly.

‘Don’t you think you should ask Jimmy if he thinks he deserves to win?’ David added. ‘Because there were a lot of things cut out of those things.’

As Ant and Dec tried to get the situation under control, Dec insisted: ‘We’ll get to this point, we’ll ask Jimmy later and we’ll talk to you too.’

‘There were a lot of things that were said could not be published’ [sic]Ant approved.

In scenes that gave the air of a heated confrontation, Adam could be seen shouting at his co-star: ‘Jimmy, are you fucking? ‘I’m covered in fucking ants in there.’

Jimmy replied: ‘Wow, calm down. This is so pathetic.”

However, Craig and several other co-stars have since claimed that Adam dropped the C-bomb multiple times in unaired scenes.

Craig Charles finished fourth, while Harry Redknapp and Mo Farah finished second and third.

Earlier in the episode, Adam clumsily brushed off an aggressive argument he had with Jimmy when addressing ‘drama’ for the first time.

“There was definitely no shortage of drama this year,” joked Declan as he kicked off the live finale.

Addressing the drama at camp for the first time, Adam said: ‘I know there’s a lot of drama at a lot of camps, but we honestly had the best time and I’m grateful to be able to share so many memories with these guys.’

Former footballer Jimmy listened closely to what Adam had to say in the audience after a series of ‘bullying arguments’ plagued this year’s show.

“It won’t start, what a shame,” laughed Ant, unaware of what was about to happen.
