Declan Donnelly comforted Scarlett Moffatt, who was left in tears after the chaotic live final of I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! on Friday night. An insider told the Mirror that Scarlett, who recently announced she is pregnant with her second child, was visibly upset by the scenes.
The source, who was in the audience, said: “Scarlett and Ashley kept saying it was ‘disgusting’ that things had come to this and were shaking their heads. Scarlett was crying and was consoled by Dec.” The drama unfolded when former footballer Jimmy Bullard repeatedly accused winner Adam Thomas of being ‘abusive, aggressive and intimidating’.
Ant McPartlin questioned Bullard’s version of events, stating: “I was there and I didn’t think it was intimidating.” When Bullard persisted, Ant’s voice rose and he said, “No, I was there, Jim.” Sinitta, who also appeared on the show, spoke out about the “bad blood” following the finale. She shared a statement on Instagram urging people “to try and see both sides”.
Sinitta addressed online criticism directed at her, revealing trolls have called her “talentless, ugly, desperate, past it, irrelevant”. She said: “I really wish everyone had been given a proper chance to speak last night... I hate that people are being called bullies and that there’s bad blood between us.” She added that Adam apologised, which she felt was “a very grown-up thing to do”.
Sinitta also spoke about experiencing online abuse herself, saying: “Over the last two weeks, I’ve received a lot of verbal abuse on social media... You call me grandma, but would you speak to your grandmother that way? What about kindness? What about respect?” She concluded: “The experience is finished now. We all survived... and we have a new king, Adam Thomas. I wish him well; I always have.”
