David Haye has come under fire after making what fans have called “nasty” and “bullying” remarks towards Adam Thomas on Friday night’s I’m A Celebrity: All Stars. The former boxing champion’s sarcasm and sharp words left viewers and campmates cringing as tensions escalated between the two.
The drama unfolded when Adam, feeling unwell, chose not to participate in a trial, prompting David to call him “useless.” His harsh words left many fans wondering if there’s a fine line between “bantering” and “bullying.”
Fans flocked to social media to express their disappointment, with many urging David to show more sympathy. One fan tweeted, “David Haye saying he doesn’t like a useless guy when Adam didn’t want to do a trial. Hun, without Craig yesterday, you’d have won 0 stars. #imaceleb.”
Another fan wrote, “What the hell is wrong with David Haye? He wasn’t like this first time around. He’s really showing himself up,” while others called his behavior “nasty” and “unsympathetic.”
David’s remarks were deemed inappropriate by several fans, particularly when Adam—who was visibly unwell—laughed off the comment. However, many felt that David’s treatment of Adam crossed a line. One fan added, “David Haye is an absolute joke and a bully. He’s the worst.”
This clash comes amid a series of controversial comments from David, including an alleged sexist remark about his girlfriend Sian Osborne. In a conversation with fellow campmates, David referred to Sian as having “the personality of a proper ugly bird,” which shocked Scarlett Moffatt and Ashley Roberts. David later explained that he meant women who are less conventionally attractive tend to develop stronger personalities, but his comments were met with gasps and disbelief.
Despite the drama, David’s girlfriend Sian reportedly laughed off the comment, but many campmates were visibly uncomfortable with his behavior. Scarlett even said, “You can’t say that, David!” as she struggled to comprehend his words.
David’s actions on the show have left fans questioning his true character, with some feeling that he has become increasingly unpleasant since his first appearance on the show.
The growing tension between David and Adam has become a talking point for fans, with many suggesting that David should reconsider his approach to others in the camp. As the I’m A Celebrity season continues, it seems David’s controversial remarks are only adding fuel to the fire.
