Gemma Collins has shared new footage from the I'm A Celebrity final, giving fans a behind-the-scenes look at the tense atmosphere backstage. In her latest vlog, the reality star is seen preparing for the final, which was overshadowed by a fallout involving Jimmy Bullard and David Haye.
In the vlog, Gemma expresses her concerns ahead of the show, saying: 'I'm a bit concerned - and that's why I've brought him. I don't wanna be across anything but I've heard that Jimmy's gonna kick off tonight. I'm being honest - but what they've all got to remember is we had a brilliant time. Where has all this beef come from? Someone's going to be a winner and tomorrow. Lives move on. I just feel like it's ruining it all.'
Later in the footage, David Haye visits Gemma in her dressing room. She jokingly calls him the villain and says 'it's all pantomime', but David quickly insists 'it's the real thing'. In another moment, Gemma is in the corridor with her stepson Tristan, where she warmly greets Sir Mo Farah, Ashley Roberts and Scarlett Moffatt. However, when Jimmy Bullard walks past her, neither acknowledges the other.
Following the final, Gemma reflected on the behaviour of David and Jimmy, calling them both 'divas'. In a social media post, she paid tribute to winner Adam Thomas, writing: 'THE WINNER @adamthomas21. What a show up !!! Absolutely disgusted with jimmy and David’s behaviour the biggest show up in tv history !!! What an EMBARRASSMENT ! To all the took part in the show it was a discredit to the production crew cast Ant and Dec biggest disrespect ever !!!'
She added: 'Last night was meant to be a celebration instead it was very upsetting !! X Let’s hope Adam will find some energy to absorb his victory ! X' Gemma also later paid tribute to Craig Charles, describing him as a 'cultural chameleon' and a 'national treasure'.
