An insider told the paper: \u201cAdam just completely lost it and went for Jimmy. He called him a c**t and Jimmy believes that he tried to kick him, too.<\/p>\n<p class=\"text_text__nEn66\">&#8220;Jimmy was done by this point and wanted to go home,&#8221; an insider told the outlet.<\/p>\n<p class=\"text_text__nEn66\">&#8220;He just couldn&#8217;t be bothered with the trial. But because they were paired together, it meant they would both be booted off the show if they failed, which is why Adam completely lost it.<\/p>\n<p><img alt=\"Bullard immediately said 'I'm a celebrity get me out of here' within seconds of the task beginning (ITV)\" data-chromatic=\"ignore\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-nimg=\"fill\" class=\"article-image_image__XvzgU\" style=\"position:absolute;height:100%;width:100%;left:0;top:0;right:0;bottom:0;color:transparent\"   src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/aHR0cHM6Ly9ldS1pbWFnZXMuY29udGVudHN0YWNrLmNvbS92My9hc3NldHMvYmx0Y2Q3NGFjYzFkMGE5OWYzYS9ibHQyODk5ZGFk.webp\"\/>Bullard immediately said &#8216;I&#8217;m a celebrity get me out of here&#8217; within seconds of the task beginning (ITV)<\/p>\n<p class=\"text_text__nEn66\">&#8220;It was shocking. Jimmy&#8217;s view is that Adam was vile, vicious and violent, but most of it has been cut out by ITV so the viewers will not see the full extent of his behaviour.<\/p>\n<p class=\"text_text__nEn66\">&#8220;Jimmy is devastated by it all, it was supposed to be a celebration of I&#8217;m A Celeb, but Adam appeared to have let his temper get the better of him. It spoilt what should have been a wonderful experience for the whole line-up.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"text_text__nEn66\">An ITV spokesperson has insisted that Adam kicked a door, not Jimmy, adding that the claim he kicked him was \u2018categorically not true\u2019. The spokesperson also said: \u201cWe show an accurate and fair representation of events.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"text_text__nEn66\">In posting the video of Sinita, however, the footballer appeared to confirm he was coming back for the live finale in his caption: &#8220;My version will be told Friday!
