Jimmy Bullard Comment that Sparked Huge Bust-up with Adam Thomas

Bullard’s refusal to continue forced campmates to forfeit stars and sparked a heated argument with Adam Thomas, with the pair reportedly still not speaking.

  • On Tuesday, former Fulham midfielder Jimmy Bullard sparked conflict after abruptly quitting a Bushtucker Trial while partnered with actor Adam Thomas, forcing an immediate halt to the challenge.
  • Frustrated by Bullard's refusal to perform, Thomas confronted his teammate, shouting, "I'm in there getting covered in f****** ants," to which Bullard responded by calling his reaction "pathetic."
  • Because Bullard halted the trial, the campmates forfeited their earned stars, though the other contestants voted unanimously to keep Thomas in the competition.
  • Reports indicate the pair remain on poor terms following the incident, with Bullard reportedly boycotting Friday's live final, potentially facing a 20 per cent fee penalty from ITV bosses.
  • The incident occurred during the final week of the ITV series, which features 12 returning campmates competing to be crowned the "ultimate legend 2026" on ITV and ITVX.
