An audience member has lifted the lid on the chaotic scenes that unfolded during the live final of I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here! last week, describing the atmosphere as 'carnage' and comparing it to the Jerry Springer show. The explosive rows overshadowed Adam Thomas' victory, with David Haye and Jimmy Bullard clashing with the Emmerdale actor, while Sinitta and Gemma Collins stormed off stage.
In a video shared on Instagram, the fan revealed that during an ad break, David Haye approached the final four to shake hands, but Adam Thomas refused. 'Adam just point blank refused and was like, 'No I'm not having this,'' she said. The tension escalated on the sofa, leading to heckling from the crowd and Sinitta shouting at the audience, claiming the behaviour was 'really aggressive' and 'really intimidating'. Gemma Collins then also stormed off.
Scarlett Moffatt was seen in tears, with host Declan Donnelly comforting her. Ashley also started crying during the ad break. The audience member described Adam as looking like 'a broken man' when he returned, and even after being announced as the winner, he 'just did a little smirk' before walking off, throwing down his sceptre and crown, and running to his brother in the audience.
Gemma Collins later took to Instagram to express her disgust at the behaviour of Jimmy and David, calling it 'the biggest show up in TV history' and an 'embarrassment'. She said the final was meant to be a celebration but was instead 'very upsetting'. Fans rallied around Adam on social media, with many expressing sympathy for the actor.
