The live final of I'm a Celebrity... South Africa, broadcast from London on Friday, April 24, 2026, saw Adam Thomas crowned the champion. The 37-year-old triumphed over strong competition from Craig Charles, Mo Farah, and Harry Redknapp in a tense finale. However, the celebration was somewhat overshadowed by a significant dispute that occurred minutes before the announcement.
Earlier in the broadcast, a disagreement involving Adam, David Haye, and Jimmy Bullard escalated. David Haye had confronted Adam about a prior spat with Jimmy Bullard, which originated during a trial where Jimmy's withdrawal impacted Adam's progress. This led to a charged exchange during the live show, causing Sinitta and Gemma Collins to leave the stage in frustration, while hosts questioned the narrative presented.
Following Adam's victory, conversations on I'm A Celebrity... Unpacked Live revealed mixed emotions. Ashley Roberts remarked that Adam seemed to feel he didn't deserve the win due to the preceding events. Scarlett Moffatt and Gemma Collins, however, defended Adam's win, emphasizing his deserving nature and the enjoyable experience they had, questioning the emergence of negativity.
