I’m A Celebrity winner Adam Thomas says victory left him feeling ‘dead inside’

Adam Thomas has recalled the moment that he won I’m A Celebrity as he described “the colour draining from his face” during the finale.

The live episode, which took place seven months after the main reality competition was filmed, descended into chaos when Jimmy Bullard accused Adam Thomas of being “abusive” and “intimidating”.

David Haye, who also clashed with Thomas throughout the series, waded in on the drama.

Speaking on his podcast At Home With The Thomas Bro’s on Wednesday (29 April), the actor said he still feels numb and “dead inside” following his victory.

“You could pay me £10million to do that experience all over again. And I would say no in a heartbeat because nothing is worth what I went through in there,” he shared as he became emotional.
