I'm A Celebrity star Sinitta turns on 'bullies' David Haye and Jimmy Bullard as she reveals real reason she stormed off set
'It actually felt like bullying to me!'I’m A Celebrity star Sinitta has performed a U-turn on campmates David Haye and Jimmy Bullard after initially siding with them during the show’s drama.
On Friday (April 24), the I’m A Celebrity South Africa final saw Adam Thomas win the crown.
However, before his victory, the Waterloo Road actor was in the firing line when Jimmy Bullard accused the show of not airing abusive behaviour he allegedly faced during their row.

During the final, host Ant McPartlin hit back. He insisted Adam wasn’t intimidating after using the C-word in unaired scenes.
Jimmy labelled the incident “a liberty,” while his pal David Haye, who had already been accused of bullying Adam earlier in the series, supported him and challenged Adam to explain why he had been shouting obscenities.
Sinitta was the first to rise and walk away, later telling the audience she felt the behaviour was “aggressive and abusive.”
Gemma, who was on Adam’s side, also stormed off straight after.
However, following an appearance on Good Morning Britain today (April 27), Sinitta has since turned on David and Jimmy.

Sinitta said Jimmy Bullard and David Haye’s behaviour ‘felt like bullying to me’
Sinitta was asked by entertainment reporter Richard Arnold why she walked off set. In response, she said: “I just thought, guys, I felt like they had just blown it.”
After initially supporting Jimmy and David, she has now called out their behaviour.
“It’s like you had a point, yes, Jimmy didn’t deserve to be treated that way, yes, there was banter. But it actually felt like bullying to me. You know what, we have all lost why we are here now,” she said.
Sinitta continued: “Because you are all shouting and you’re all trying to get your things in. Now it does look like you’re bullies because you’re goading and saying stuff.”
Discussing Adam’s dynamic with David in the jungle, she said there were moments when she intervened and “told him to stop”. However, she claimed Adam was also “goading” the boxer “behind her back”.
“He’s getting him in trouble by acting sad,” she suggested, adding that she eventually stepped back once she realised she wasn’t “needed.”
Sinitta said the row with Jimmy on the show was “over the top” and still mentioned that Adam had been “aggressive”.
