Downcast Adam Thomas has been seen after he refused to appear on This Morning, where his campmate Craig Charles said he feared the star would 'attack' Jimmy Bullard during their row The Waterloo Road star, 37, was pictured in Covent Garden in London on Friday morning, after telling ITV bosses he wouldn't appear on the daytime showOpening up about the incident, Craig said: 'They watered down the Jimmy Bullard incident, it was unbroadcastable as it was.'It was deeply traumatic and really upsetting, it was between the two of them, Adam was so wound up, he was so aggressive, like a coiled up spring, it looked like he was going to attack Jimmy.'He was dropping f-bombs and c-bombs... It really was traumatic and they couldn't broadcast it, and I'm not blaming ITV, they couldn't [put it out].'In scenes that did air, Adam could be seen shouting at his co-star: 'Jimmy, are you f***ing taking the p***? I am in there getting covered in f***ing ants.'Jimmy replied: 'Woah, calm down. That's pathetic.' Craig added of the incident: 'They had to water down what [viewers saw] but they didn't water down our responses, so people were thinking, "Oh, it wasn't that bad, why are they picking on Adam?"'We weren't picking on Adam at all, it was just what he did.' Hosts Ant McPartlin and Declan Donnelly confirmed last night that Jimmy Bullard would be in attendance, following speculation he would forfeit 20% of his fee as a result of not showing up. This week, Adam revealed he was receiving therapy on his At Home With The Thomas Bros podcast, as he emotionally said his 'feud' with boxer David Haye 'f***ed' with him.Breaking down in tears, Adam said: 'It was like being back in school again and although it wasn't physical bullying or anything like that, and I'm not saying it's bullying, but he was just mind f***ing me. 'And I just never stuck up for myself whilst I was in there and I was like "s**t bro, I wish I stuck up for myself". That was beating me up more than anything.'He continued: 'I'm not the same person, like I know for a fact I am not the same person as I was when I went into the jungle to when I came out. It's changed me and that's no over exaggeration. Skipping the studio, Adam appeared tense, with his wife Caroline walking by his side supporting him Craig Charles broke down as he hit out at ITV for 'watering down' the aggressive and traumatic row between Adam Thomas and Jimmy Bullard on I'm A Celebrity The actor, who revealed this week he was receiving therapy as a result of his stint in the jungle, wore blue denim trousers and a cream printed jacket, with sunglasses shielding his eyes'I'm in therapy now because, like it's f***ed with me mentally because I just thought, "How is this happening? I'm a 37-year-old man". I'm like, "How am I letting some other person do this to me in here?"'David, xx, has continued to take swipes at Adam, including a vile social media jibe as well as claiming the dad-of-two was paid between '£20-25k per day' for his appearance on the ITV show.The boxer had sparked bullying complaints from viewers over his comments to Adam when he excused himself from the Termite Terror trial over his health.Adam, who suffers from autoimmune condition psoriatic arthritis, had told his campmates he did not feel well enough to compete.Meanwhile, Jimmy is reportedly 'seeking revenge' on Adam after their fiery clash aired, as it's claimed he will use his time during the finale to give his version of events.A source told The Sun: 'He is also not afraid to say exactly what he thinks – and that means he won't be toeing ITV's line.'Jimmy knows the truth about what happened. He's ready to tell his story.'During his appearance on This Morning, Craig was asked about the 'bullying' claims in camp and revealed that the campmates had been unaware that Adam was being affected by such behaviour and suggested ITV 'didn't think he was getting bullied enough to step in'. Launching into his explanation, Craig hit out against ITV for 'watering down' the moment Adam and Jimmy clashed in a trial that would decide who got sent home Craig was joined by Sir Mo Farah and Harry Redknapp on This Morning, but Adam was noticeably missing. As his voice wavered, Alison stepped up and hugged CraigThe Red Dwarf star said: 'Since we've got back, the last few weeks, it's all been over social media that Harry, Mo and I were not there for Adam when he was getting bullied.'Let me tell you a little story, it all started when they were the Rhinos, and me and Adam were Lions, and we were the underdogs - [they had] David Haye the boxer, Harry the gaffer, Ashley Roberts who was fit as a fiddle.'You had me, a broken down TV star, Gemma Collins... but we won every challenge and we gave them dogs abuse, me and Adam, over the fence, ribbing them, jest and banter, we wrecked them.'We were relentless, we poked the bear, and then David Haye came back at us - now, Adam gave as good as he got, he really did give as good as he got, he was laughing and we didn't realise he was being emotionally affected by it.'He never told us, I asked him yesterday, "Well why didn't you tell us?" and he said, "I didn't want to appear weak". We didn't know. David and Adam had a fractious relationship during their time together in the South African jungle, which was filmed in September last year'ITV have got a duty of care, they have got 24/7 people on high definition close ups picking it all out, but they didn't think he was getting bullied enough to step in - they have a duty of care, they would have stepped in if they thought he was being bullied.'We didn't see it until that final morning when I thought David got a bit nasty, I thought, "This is turning into bullying, this, now" and on that final morning, I found myself in the perfect position, voting people out, I saved Adam knowing that the other two were not going to pick David, thereby ensuring David went home.'We were there for him, we didn't know the extent of his troubles.'I'M A CELEBRITY ALL-STARS 2026: MEET THE CAMPMATES GEMMA COLLINS The GC took part in the 14th series of I'm A Celebrity back in 2014AGE: 45SERIES: 2014 (14th series) quit after 72 hours OCCUPATION: Reality star FAMOUS FOR: Gemma, popularly known as The GC, rose to fame on the reality series The Only Way Is Essex (TOWIE).
