Jimmy Bullard has broken his silence on his huge I’m A Celebrity South Africa row with Adam Thomas and confirmed he will attend the live final reunion on Friday.
During the pre-recorded show, the former footballer, 47, made the decision to yell: ‘I’m A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here’ during the Bushtucker Trial, Rancid Run on Tuesday night.
This prompted an explosive row from his partner Adam, 37, as the losing pair would have to go home.
However, Jimmy has now confirmed he will reunite with his campmate this Friday as he took to Instagram to comment on Sinitta’s latest post.
Sinitta claimed the C-word was shouted a lot during the row as Jimmy shared: ‘Wow thanks @thesinittaofficial shame that wasn’t shown! My version will be told Friday! Can’t wait to see you all….well some of yous!!’

During the pre-recorded show, the former footballer, 47, forfeited the trial so he could leave the camp, but it meant Adam (pictured), who was his partner, would also be evicted
Sinitta explained: ‘There was a big argument, I can hear c-word, c-word, shouting c-word, you c-word. What on earth is going on? And I’m also thinking – can we get on with the race because I’m winning? I’m literally frozen in position like ready to carry on from where we’ve left off, but no.
‘It’s this massive fight and, of course, it was one of these things that if whoever lost the game, the team were off the show so Adam and Jimmy are going and I suddenly think, wait a minute this isn’t fair.’
In what’s been dubbed the biggest row in the show’s history, Jimmy decided to forfeit the trial so he could leave the camp, but it meant Adam, who was his partner, would also be evicted.
The sudden decision sparked a mass fall-out between the pair, with Adam launching into an expletive-laden rant at Jimmy for sending him home too.
The pair, who filmed the show six months ago, are still not on speaking terms, with sources sharing with Daily Mail more details on the explosive clash. You can read the full story here.
Due to the nature of Jimmy’s exit, the remaining celebrities were given the chance to decide whether Adam should stay on the show, and the actor was allowed to return to the camp.
The feud saw Adam shout after Jimmy’s decision to quit: ‘If you f*****g wanted to go. Don’t take me with you. What is up with you?
‘All you have to do is run through some mud and you said “I’m A Celebrity, Get Me Out Of Here.”
Jimmy replied: ‘It ain’t about that. I wanted to go home.’
Adam said: ‘Well, go home then in camp. Don’t do it on my f****g watch. A quitter bro, I don’t quit’.

The actor later broke down in tears as he admitted he regretted losing his temper and had wanted to do his children proud.
Meanwhile, Jimmy said: ‘Letting Adam down is a killer. He is on a different journey for me, he wants to do well. I get it.
‘I got my mum and dad at home, the old man ain’t too well. I struggled so much. It’s got harder and harder. Unfortunately my time was up in the game.’
Watching the scenes unfold, viewers wrote on X their thoughts, believing Jimmy’s actions were the final straw for Adam.
The actor had already faced scrutiny from David Haye in camp for days on end, which sparked viewers to say he was being bullied by the boxer.
Fans wrote of Jimmy’s decision to sabotage the trial: ‘That was calculated. Like Adam said, why didn’t he call it in camp that he wanted to go’;
‘What an utter joke! So out of order! And I’m not surprised that poor Adam flipped. He’s had David and Jimmy with their “banter” from day one and that was just the last straw. I’d have snapped too, poor guy’;
‘His reaction was not over the top! Jimmy sabotaged’;
‘Why are the campmates not getting the situation with Adam. Of course Adam’s at breaking point after David’s relentless bullying. Then never in the shows history has a campmate screwed someone over like Jimmy just done. Thank god for Scarlet and Ashley having his back’;
‘I don’t care what Jimmy’s reasons are for wanting to leave, he should’ve walked. But he didn’t because he’s nasty and wanted to take someone with him clearly. That someone being Adam.’
