Jimmy began to explain why he chose to leave the show mid trial while he was paired with Adam, a decision that would have meant Adam would be <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.capitalfm.com\/news\/tv-film\/im-a-celebrity\/south-africa-jimmy-bullard-lose-money-adam-thomas-row\/\">dumped from the jungle with him.<\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph-text\">The former Premiere League player admitted that he had chosen to use the trial as an excuse to leave because it meant he would get his full pay for the show. If he had chosen to quit at any other point he would have only received a percentage of his full fee. <\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph-text\">After admitting to throwing Adam under the bus for money, he then went on to say his problem was with how Adam responded and the fact that ITV cut some of it. This is when chaos ensued. <\/p>\n<figure>\n<img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"Adam Thomas and Sir Mo Farah at the live I'm A Celebrity South Africa final\" class=\"content-image\" data-image-catalogue-id=\"808813\" width=\"660\" height=\"370\" src=\"https:\/\/imgs.capitalfm.com\/images\/808813?crop=16_9&amp;width=660&amp;relax=1&amp;format=webp&amp;signature=y3hbzv_BrC4cbwRxZlmBN4XV52s=\" srcset=\"&#10;                https:\/\/imgs.capitalfm.com\/images\/808813?crop=16_9&amp;width=375&amp;relax=1&amp;format=webp&amp;signature=fNbS-z9FFWQjCRun2IELoB2esXg= 375w,&#10;                https:\/\/imgs.capitalfm.com\/images\/808813?crop=16_9&amp;width=420&amp;relax=1&amp;format=webp&amp;signature=zxenQIG0HUDfbhzwNNxo5i0afX4= 420w,&#10;                https:\/\/imgs.capitalfm.com\/images\/808813?crop=16_9&amp;width=660&amp;relax=1&amp;format=webp&amp;signature=y3hbzv_BrC4cbwRxZlmBN4XV52s= 660w\" sizes=\"auto, \n                (max-width: 375px) 375px,\n                (max-width: 420px) 420px,\n                660px\"\/><figcaption>\n    Adam Thomas and Sir Mo Farah at the live I&#8217;m A Celebrity South Africa final.<br \/>\n    <span class=\"attribution\"><\/p>\n<p>Picture:<br \/>\nITV<\/p>\n<p>    <\/span><br \/>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p class=\"paragraph-text\">Jimmy argued that Adam had been &#8220;aggressive&#8221; and &#8220;intimidating&#8221; towards him and that ITV were out of order for not show how Adam really behaved. <\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph-text\">Host Dec Donnelly argued that they&#8217;d shown most of it and Ant McPartlin defended Adam saying that he wasn&#8217;t that as bad as he was claiming.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph-text\">Among this, David was still heckling in the background and Jimmy started turning to Craig to get his view on it, and even asked Harry Redknapp to weigh in. <\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph-text\">As the cast all argued over Adam&#8217;s behaviour, Sintta got up and stormed off.
