The I’m a Celebrity South Africa Live Final results show descended into chaos, as an argument erupted live on air between Jimmy Bullard, David Haye, and hosts Ant and Dec, that caused Sinitta and Gemma Collins to walk off set.
The second part of the finale began airing at 10pm with Ant and Dec bringing all the campmates together for one more debrief. They began by asking the question everyone wanted to know which was why Jimmy Bullard chose to pick Adam Thomas for his final Bushtucker trial.
During the trial Jimmy chose to say “I’m a celebrity” and leave the series, which left Adam’s position on the show in jeopardy as the losers of the challenge would both be sent home. Adam then said: “You f***ing taking the piss? I am in there getting covered in f***ing ants.”
He then added: “What’s up with you, bro? If you wanted to go, go – don’t take me with you. Go home in camp, don’t do it on my f**ing watch.
“What is up with you? Tell me why? All you had to do was run through some f***ing mud and you said get me out of here.”
Then during tonight’s live show, Jimmy went onto clarify he didn’t pick Adam knowing his choice would end up with Adam being sent home. He then went onto apologise to Adam saying he didn’t want his decision to cost him his place on the show. However, he then added he didn’t “stand” for the behaviour he alleged Adam had shown towards him after Jimmy revealed his decision to leave the show.

He said: “I absolutely threw him under the bus, I get it. I’ll wear that. But what I don’t stand on is someone being abusive, aggressive and intimidating. I don’t stand on it…. You [ITV] didn’t show none of the C-bombs.”
For context following the episode of the trial airing earlier this week, Jimmy claimed a number of moments from the trial weren’t shown, which Ant revealed later on air was due to some scenes being “unbroadcastable”.
Ant then replied to Jimmy, saying he didn’t see that behaviour: “I was there and I didn’t think it was intimidating. I was there, Jim.”
Adam then added he has since apologised to Jimmy since filming took place in the autumn, adding during the live finale: “I take full responsibility for my actions, yes, emotions were definitely running high in that moment. I’ve got nothing but love for Jimmy.”
However, David Haye then interjected: “Lovely way of showing it.”
Dec then joined in and said to David (who had already left the show at the point of the trial): “David, you weren’t even there! Keep out of this!”

Ant then went onto ask David how he felt his own comments throughout the show had been received, following some public backlash to his words throughout the series.
David then replied, claiming: “I like to say it as I see it, and when I’m in a situation I keep it real. And what I’ve seen is a lot of editing to make this poor guy [he gestures to Adam] look like a victim. We all had banter back and forth, a lot of it was cut out from their side.”
Jimmy then joined the conversation again and tried to rally his fellow campmates into giving their support.
It was at this point that the interview descended into the cast shouting, and Sinitta removing herself from the situation and walking off the set. She was shortly followed by Gemma who also walked off camera.
The episode ended with Adam being crowned the winner of I’m a Celebrity South Africa.
