David Haye brutally shut down by Adam Thomas as Jimmy Bullard reveals full extent of I'm A Celeb row

Jimmy Bullard has revealed his version of events surrounding his row with Adam Thomas - before Thomas hit back at David Haye over his attempted interruption.

Bullard and Thomas were involved in a blazing row in footage broadcast on Tuesday's edition of the I'm A Celebrity... South Africa series.

Thomas called Bullard a 'c**t' and a 'p***k' after he quit a team Bushtucker trial, causing both celebrities to be eliminated.

Thomas was later re-admitted to the camp after Ant and Dec gave campmates the opportunity to vote on whether he could stay.

Craig Charles, who reached the live final, said on ITV's This Morning that ITV 'watered down' the full footage of the row and that it was 'unbroadcastable'.

During the final, former heavyweight boxer Haye called on Ant and Dec to quiz Bullard over his side of the story, with all 12 celebrities present in London.

Ant and Dec therefore opened the final segment by asking Bullard exactly what happened - and the former Wigan, Fulham and Hull midfielder revealed all.

"Let me run through what happened," he began.

"When we went down to the trial, it was originally for stars. That's why I chose Adam, because it was for stars.

"Then you sprung a big lightbulb moment in my head when you said the bottom two get to go home. So I didn't choose Adam after that. I didn't know anyone was going - I thought it was for stars.

"Now, all of a sudden, there's a chance of going home. I spoke to Ollie from production, five minutes before I went on. I said, 'Ollie, I think I'm going to pull the plug here'. I told Adam before. I told Harry.

"There were a lot of heavy reasons, which I don't want to go into now. Also, [I told Ollie], can you talk me through my contract? Because my contract's pro-rata.

"Let me give you an example, if I go home and call Adam back with me, I get full pay. That money's big for me and my family.

"If I go home, stay in, and go back and pull the plug, I get a small percentage of that. I made my mind up in that lightbulb moment - I have to go home.

"Then all hell breaks loose. You can all be upset. I threw him under the bus. I absolutely get it. I'll wear that.

"But what I don't stand on is someone being abusive, aggressive or intimidating. I don't stand on it.

"You didn't show none of that. None of the C-words. You didn't."

Ant described the footage as 'unbroadcastable', to which Bullard replied: "Was it abusive, aggressive or intimidating, what happened? What do you think?"

"I was there. I didn't think it was intimidating," Ant said. "I was there."

After Thomas was prompted to give his response, the ex-Emmerdale actor said: "I take full responsibility for my actions. Yes, emotions were definitely running high in that moment.

"Listen, I've got nothing but love for Jimmy, I think it was just..."

That was when Haye interrupted, describing Thomas as the 'victim'.

"David, you were gone. You weren't even there," Dec hit back.

And Ant asked: "Why didn't you say I'm a Celebrity, Get Me Out of Here?"

"I had too much fun with this little one here," Haye replied, before putting his hands on Thomas' shoulders.

"Will you just let the finalists talk?" Thomas hit back to loud cheers from the audience, causing Haye's expression to quickly change.

Haye would go on to claim, to heavy booing: "What I've seen is a lot of editing to make this poor guy [Thomas] look like the victim."

Bullard then repeated his question over whether Thomas was 'abusive, aggressive or intimidating' to the campmates, leading Sinitta to walk off the stage.
