He said: &#8220;During the ad break, David kept grabbing Adam&#8217;s shoulders and Adam just wouldn&#8217;t react.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph-text\">And painting more of a picture of the scenes, he said: &#8220;You could hear screaming from Sinitta and Gemma off stage. Scarlett walked off and started crying, but was consoled by Dec [Donnelly]. <\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph-text\">&#8220;Dec went straight to Jimmy and confronted him and it looked very heated. Ant stormed off saying it was a &#8216;load of s&#8212;&#8216; and was clearly fuming at Jimmy. And Gemma was the one that was obviously like trying to keep the energy upbeat.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph-text\">He then addressed how Gemma was seated in between David and Jimmy, saying: &#8220;Gemma was also last out to take her seat at the start and they moved the boys from being next to each other to have her in the middle. <\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph-text\">&#8220;So they couldn&#8217;t gang up together I guess, they did the same with Ashley in the second show so it was definitely a conscious decision.&#8221;<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"heading-subtitle\">Listen live to Capital, and catch up on any shows you missed, on<a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/app.af.globalplayer.com\/Br0x\/CaptoGP\"><span class=\"underline\">Global Player<\/span><\/a>.<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"\/\/www.tiktok.com\/embed.js\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p><em> \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em> \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source www.capitalfm.com \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>27 April 2026, 14:19 I&#8217;m A Celebrity audience member reveals wild unaired moments explosive live final.
