Sinitta has said the explosive row that dominated the I\u2019m A Celebrity\u2026 South Africa final made Jimmy Bullard and David Haye \u201clook like bullies\u201d.<\/p>\n

Adam Thomas was crowned winner of the ITV reality show in its dramatic live final on Friday, which saw the actor accused of being \u201cabusive, aggressive and intimidating\u201d by co-stars Bullard and Haye.<\/p>\n

Sinitta, 62, walked off the set along with reality star Gemma Collins as the show descended into chaos while former footballer Bullard discussed his explosive row with Thomas during the all-star series.<\/p>\n

Reflecting on the tense finale, the singer and actress told ITV\u2019s Good Morning Britain that she left the stage because she felt Bullard and Haye \u201cblew\u201d their moment to share their side of the argument.<\/p>\n

Sinitta said: \u201cIt\u2019s like, you had a point. Yes, Jimmy didn\u2019t deserve to be treated that way. Yes, there was banter, but it actually felt like bullying to me. So, it\u2019s like, now what? You\u2019ve lost, we\u2019ve all lost why we are here now.<\/p>\n

\u201cBecause you\u2019re all shouting and you\u2019re trying to get your things in, and now it does look like you\u2019re bullies, because you\u2019re kind of goading and you\u2019re saying stuff.\u201d<\/p>\n

Bullard said Thomas \u201cdropped c-bombs\u201d which were not aired during the pair\u2019s row on the reality show and accused him of acting in an \u201cabusive, aggressive and intimidating\u201d manner while calling for his fellow contestants to offer their opinion.<\/p>\n

The former footballer also asked hosts Anthony McPartlin and Declan Donnelly to weigh in, and McPartlin disagreed the exchange was aggressive, saying: \u201cNo it wasn\u2019t, I was there.\u201d<\/p>\n

Offering her perspective on the situation, Sinitta said: \u201cYes, it was over the top. Adam was angry and aggressive. They couldn\u2019t show the whole thing.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m quite a sensitive person. If someone is shouting and swearing in an angry way, I find that disturbing because it feels like it\u2019s going to go to a fight.<\/p>\n

\u201cLots of people pepper their language with swearing. It just to illustrate things. I can handle that. I don\u2019t do that either, though.<\/p>\n

\u201cBut when you\u2019re angry and you\u2019re using what I call the really bad swear words, aggressively and angrily, to me, that feels like there\u2019s going to be a fight.\u201d<\/p>\n

The singer, known for hits including So Macho, Toy Boy and GTO, also said there was \u201cno bullying\u201d between Thomas, Haye and Bullard in the jungle, just \u201ca lot of boisterous testosterone\u201d.<\/p>\n

She added: \u201cIt was actually an incredible experience and all the drama has sort of happened afterwards. What\u2019s gone wrong?\u201d<\/p>\n

Haye has hit headlines for his feud with Thomas on the all-star show, with the actor saying the boxer \u201cbroke\u201d him and pushed him to his limits.<\/p>\n

Sinitta described their behaviour as \u201clike two eight-year-olds\u201d winding each other up, and said: \u201cThere were a few times when I was like \u2018David, stop\u2019, like I would be with my kids. \u2018That\u2019s enough guys, stop now\u2019.\u201d<\/p>\n

Speaking about the live finale, which also saw Haye accuse the show of editing footage to make Thomas look like a \u201cvictim\u201d, the singer added: \u201cI know that David got loud Friday night, he wanted to make his point.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe was trying to defend himself and actually, ironically, it came across as bullying because he was trying to get his words in.\u201d<\/p>\n

The star also told The Sun she found the live finale \u201cvery uncomfortable and disturbing\u201d over the weekend, and said the chaos that ensued left her \u201cvisibly upset and shaken\u201d.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Sinitta has said the explosive row that dominated the I\u2019m A Celebrity\u2026 South Africa final made Jimmy Bullard…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":420175,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[29],"tags":[93,61,60,282],"class_list":["post-420174","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-tv","tag-entertainment","tag-ie","tag-ireland","tag-tv"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/420174","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=420174"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/420174\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/420175"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=420174"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=420174"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=420174"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
