Sections of the studio audience jeered during the I'm A Celebrity live final after David Haye demanded that presenters Ant and Dec ask Jimmy Bullard for his version of events surrounding his row with Adam Thomas.
Thomas and Bullard had a bust-up in scenes broadcast on Tuesday evening, after Bullard quit a pairs trial and caused them both to be eliminated from the show.
Thomas was left furious with Bullard and hurled a number of X-rated insults at the former Premier League midfielder.
Campmates later agreed to allow Thomas to remain after they were asked by Ant and Dec.

Thomas ultimately made the final alongside Sir Mo Farah, Harry Redknapp and Craig Charles.
Charles would claim on ITV's 'This Morning' that ITV 'watered down' footage of the row, adding: "It was unbroadcastable as it was. It was deeply traumatic and it was really upsetting.
"It was Adam, he was so wound up, he was so aggressive. He was like a coiled spring. It looked like he was going to attack Jimmy. He was dropping F bombs and C bombs."
After footage of his last trial was shown to the live audience in the final, which is being broadcast from London, Ant and Dec performed a studio interview with Thomas.
But when they referenced his row with Bullard, former British heavyweight boxer Haye chimed in with an immediate interruption, calling on both presenters to ask Bullard for his version of events.
"After calling Jimmy the C-word a few times, do you think he deserves to win? Let's be honest," Haye called out.
"Don't you think you should ask Jimmy whether he should win? Because a lot of that stuff was cut out of it. A lot of that stuff was cut out of it."
Fellow campmate Gemma Collins, who was sat next to Haye, attempted to diffuse the situation, while Dec replied: "We'll come to that later on. We are going to ask Jimmy later, and we are going to come to you as well."
"There was a lot of stuff that was said that was unbroadcastable, that's why," Ant added, after the audience had begun to jeer and Haye continued to argue.
"I knew things were going too smoothly!" Dec said.
All four finalists were then interviewed collectively by Ant and Dec before the broadcast ended, with Charles voted as the fourth-placed celebrity.
The second segment of the final, between Farah, Redknapp and Thomas, is set to air between 10pm and 10:30pm on ITV1.
