Sinitta has recently shared her perspective on the controversy surrounding the tension between David Haye and Adam Thomas on Iâm A Celebrity⊠Get Me Out Of Here! All Stars, specifically addressing accusations of bullying. The row between the two celebrities unfolded during the latest series of the popular reality TV show, where David was accused by fans of bullying Adam. This drama came to light after a heated exchange during a challenge when Adam ruled himself out of participating due to not feeling well, and Davidâs remarks made things worse.

The moment that sparked the backlash occurred when Adam, who has psoriatic arthritis, chose to sit out the Termite Terror trial, citing his illness. In response, David, the former boxer, referred to Adam as âuseless,â which immediately drew public condemnation. Fans were quick to take to social media, voicing their displeasure over Davidâs comment and accusing him of bullying Adam. The controversy only intensified when David, instead of apologizing or backing down, doubled down on his statement and rejected the notion that he had bullied Adam.
In a segment on Good Morning Britain, Sinitta weighed in on the drama, and her comments seemed to align more with Davidâs perspective than the one taken by many fans. The singer, who was part of the Iâm A Celeb camp, revealed that she did not witness any bullying during the filming of the show. She explained that, while the heated exchanges between the two men made for compelling television, they were not rooted in malice or bullying. Sinitta noted, âIt made for great telly, but I have to say, I was there, and we all got on so well. Itâs a shame for all of us.â She emphasized that no one in the camp ever witnessed bullying and that she personally didnât see any evidence of it.
Sinitta further elaborated by stating that, in her opinion, Adam had âgoadedâ David, leading to the latterâs reaction. She clarified, âThere was no bullying. And if you remember, when there were the two separate camps, it was actually Adam goading David saying, âweâve got this, weâve got that.ââ Sinitta seemed to believe that Adamâs behavior might have contributed to the altercation. However, she acknowledged that while Davidâs banter may have gone too far and unintentionally upset Adam, the comments were not meant to be malicious. âItâs this thing where it can go too far with teasing and someone gets upset. But there were no feelings of anyone being bullied. Because I wouldnât have been able to tolerate that,â she added.
The drama reached its peak when, during an episode, David became increasingly frustrated with Adam for repeatedly claiming that he wasnât feeling well. As the show progressed, viewers saw Davidâs irritation spill over, leading to uncomfortable scenes where he called Adam âuselessâ and mocked his repeated absence from the trials. This frustrated David even further, particularly because Adam seemed to sit out whenever there was a trial or challenge to participate in. âNot well? Whatâs wrong with him? Heâs a grown arse man,â David was seen saying. âWhy arenât we forcing this dude to go and do it? Coincidentally, every time thereâs something to do, heâs not feeling well!â
This moment was met with immediate backlash from both viewers and Adamâs campmates, who rushed to defend him. Among those defending Adam were popular campmates such as Gemma Collins, Scarlett Moffatt, and even the showâs hosts, Ant and Dec. Despite the support from others in the camp, Adam later revealed that he had sought therapy after the show to deal with the emotional aftermath of the incident. He admitted that he struggled with not standing up for himself during the altercation, which added another layer of complexity to the situation.
The situation was further complicated by allegations surrounding the showâs WhatsApp group, where rumors of âstory sellingâ started circulating. Craig Charles, another celebrity participant on the show, commented on the issue, stating that he had distanced himself from the group after learning that someone had allegedly been selling stories from the WhatsApp group to the media. Sinitta was accused of being the person leaking stories about fellow campmate Gemma, with whom she had clashed during the show. However, Sinitta vehemently denied these allegations, laughing them off during an interview. âIâm supposed to have sold stories about Gemma, but I havenât done that,â she said. âI donât know enough about her to sell anything. If I was going to do that, I might have chosen someone I know better.â

This claim of âselling storiesâ arose after Sinitta and Gemma had a brief row on the show. Sinitta had commented on Gemmaâs role in the West End production of Chicago, calling it a âjoke announcement.â She compared Gemmaâs fame to that of Zsa Zsa Gabor, suggesting that, like Gabor, Gemma was famous without âdoing anything.â Gemma, naturally, took offense to the comment, and later confided in Adam about how hurt she was by Sinittaâs remark.
As if the tension between David and Adam wasnât enough, Adam found himself embroiled in yet another conflict during the series. He was recently seen having a heated argument with Jimmy Bullard after the footballer quit mid-challenge. Jimmyâs sudden exit put Adam at risk of being eliminated, as the trial was a pair-based challenge. When Jimmy quit, Adam was left without a partner, and it seemed likely that he would be sent home as a result. In a fit of frustration, Adam kicked a door and yelled at Jimmy, calling him âpathetic.â Jimmy, in turn, expressed his displeasure with Adamâs behavior.
Following the altercation, Sinitta took to social media to claim that ITV had edited out one of the insults that Adam had directed at Jimmy during their argument. She revealed that the argument had been much more intense, with Adam using strong language, including calling Jimmy a âc-word.â However, ITV stood by its edit, asserting that the version shown on television was an âaccurate and fair representation of events.â

In the aftermath of the drama, Sinittaâs comments about the bullying row and her defense of David Haye have sparked debate. While some fans agree with her, others feel that the boxerâs comments were out of line and unnecessary. The entire saga, from the alleged bullying to the stories being leaked from the WhatsApp group, highlights the complexity of life in the Iâm A Celebrity jungle, where emotions run high, relationships can become strained, and everything is magnified for the viewing public. The situation is far from resolved, and it remains to be seen how the fallout will affect the relationships between the celebrities involved.
