I'm A Celebrity All Stars future is revealed after controversial series and explosive live final

By LILY JOBSON, SHOWBUSINESS REPORTER and CODIE BULLEN, SENIOR SHOWBUSINESS REPORTER Published: 01:43, 28 April 2026 | Updated: 02:03, 28 April 2026 I'm A Celebrity South Africa has no current plans for a third series following last week's explosive live final. This year's All Stars series has been plagued with bullying rows and controversial spats between feuding cast mates - Adam Thomas, Jimmy Bullard and David Haye. Adam's victory was overshadowed by a chaotic live final last Friday as Jimmy accused him of being 'abusive, aggressive and intimidating' during an expletive row in the pre-recorded show last year. Boxer David also chimed in, after taking fresh swipes at Adam earlier this week, reigniting their feud.  And despite millions of viewers at home tuning in to watch the chaotic showdown, a third series has not been planned.  A source on the show told the Daily Mail: 'I'm A Celebrity... South Africa is not an annual series. The first series aired in 2023, and series two aired in 2026.  'There were never any plans for a series to air in 2027. It's a special series that the broadcaster looks to do from time to time, and a third series has not yet been planned.'

During the live finale hosts Ant McPartlin and Declan Donnelly struggled to control the situation as Gemma Collins and Sinitta stormed off stage in fury. The Geordie duo gave Jimmy the opportunity to speak after Adam allegedly called him the 'C-word' in an explosive clash when he pulled the plug on the show early last year. Jimmy admitted he had to leave for personal reasons and that if he didn't say 'I'm A Celebrity' in the challenge, he would not have received his full pay.  'Listen, Adam and all of you can be upset with me and I absolutely threw him under the bus, I get it and I'll wear that', Jimmy said. 'But what I don't stand on, is someone being abusive, aggressive and intimidating, I don't stand on that.' Welcoming Ant and Dec to share their opinion on the matter, Jimmy said: 'You [pointing to the hosts] were there and you didn't show any of that [footage].' 'You didn't show any of the C-bombs, it's a liberty', Jimmy fumed. Ant argued: 'The reason we didn't air the C-bomb is because that is unbroadcastable. I was there and I didn't think it was intimidating. I was there Jim.' During Adam's opportunity to speak, he said: 'I take full responsibility for my actions and yes emotions were definitely running high in that moment. 'I have nothing but love for Jimmy in that moment. I have apologised to Jimmy on numerous occasions and I do take everything that he is saying into account and the only thing I can do is apologise. 'That is not how I want to show myself off and I have never shown myself off like that before or after that. I do apologise Jimmy.'  Last 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 'f***ed' with him. Has reality TV gone too far with feuding and bullying, or is drama just part of the entertainment? What's your view? And despite millions of viewers at home tuning in to watch the chaotic showdown, a third series has not been planned 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.  '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 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. No comments have so far been submitted.
