Jimmy Bullard ‘Taking Legal Action’ Following Huge Bust-up with Adam Thomas
- Former Fulham and Hull City footballer Jimmy Bullard has reportedly hired a lawyer over an ITV pay dispute. The broadcaster claims he must appear at the I'm A Celebrity live final on Friday, April 24, or forfeit 20 per cent of his fee.
- Tensions stem from a heated Bushtucker Trial fallout with campmate Adam Thomas during Tuesday's episode. Bullard withdrew from the challenge, prompting him to say, "I'm a celebrity, get me out of here," eliminating both contestants.
- Bullard felt "completely baffled" that Thomas was permitted to remain after the incident. While fans slammed Bullard's actions as "malicious," sources claim ITV unfairly favored the Waterloo Road actor to secure his future with the network.
- ITV denied allegations that the broadcast was edited to exclude physical violence, stating the episode provided an "accurate and fair representation of events." Bullard's team is threatening legal action if the network docks his pay.
- Despite initial reports he would skip the event, Bullard has apparently confirmed he will attend the live finale in London this Friday. He previously insinuated on Instagram that his version of the confrontation would be revealed then.
