In what's been dubbed the biggest row in the show's history, Jimmy decided forfeit the trial so he could leave the camp, sparking a massive fall-out with Adam

Speaking on the I'm A Celebrity: Unpacked podcast, Carol said: 'I am angry, furious, crying, furious again.

'It was disgraceful, because everyone's tired, you know, you've been there, I've been there twice, you're knackered by the end. 

'And everyone's feeling a bit like ''oh God how many more days?'' but if he wanted to go, he should have said it in camp.

'He took Adam down and then he just stood there, Jimmy just stood there, and I'm not surprised Adam blew. It's when Jimmy said ''stop being pathetic'', what?'

Fellow guest Perrie Sian agreed, saying: 'Look, it's not the easiest thing to make that decision, but to decide to do it in such a way where it affects someone else. I do not think truly that he overreacted in that way. I would have been so upset.'

Carol added she 'would have been furious' and went on to note that it was Jimmy's lack of apology which upset her even more.

She added: 'But even more than that ''he didn't say, oh Adam you gentleman, you overreacted,'' he said ''you're being pathetic''. I couldn't get over that. Terrible.'

Jimmy and Adam had been paired up for the trial Rancid Run, but after the klaxon sounded, the footballer decided to forfeit the challenge and shout: 'I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here'.

The feud saw Adam shout after Jimmy's decision to quit: 'If you f*****g wanted to go. Don't take me with you. What is up with you?

'All you have to do is run through some mud and you said "I'm A Celebrity, Get Me Out Of Here."

Jimmy replied: 'It ain't about that. I wanted to go home.' 

Adam said: 'Well, go home then in camp. Don't do it on my f****g watch. A quitter bro, I don't quit'.

The actor later broke down in tears as he admitted he regretted losing his temper and had wanted to do his children proud. 

Meanwhile, Jimmy said: 'Letting Adam down is a killer. He is on a different journey for me, he wants to do well. I get it. 

'I got my mum and dad at home, the old man ain't too well. I struggled so much. It's got harder and harder. Unfortunately my time was up in the game.'

Watching the scenes unfold, viewers wrote on X their thoughts, believing Jimmy's actions were the final straw for Adam. 

The actor had already faced scrutiny from David Haye in camp for days on end, which sparked viewers to say he was being bullied by the boxer.  

Fans wrote of Jimmy's decision to sabotage the trial: 'That was calculated. Like Adam said, why didn’t he call it in camp that he wanted to go'; 

'What an utter joke! So out of order! And I'm not surprised that poor Adam flipped. He's had David and Jimmy with their "banter" from day one and that was just the last straw. I'd have snapped too, poor guy';

'His reaction was not over the top! Jimmy sabotaged';

'Why are the campmates not getting the situation with Adam. Of course Adam’s at breaking point after David’s relentless bullying. Then never in the shows history has a campmate screwed someone over like Jimmy just done. Thank god for Scarlet and Ashley having his back';

'I don't care what Jimmy's reasons are for wanting to leave, he should've walked. But he didn't because he's nasty and wanted to take someone with him clearly. That someone being Adam.'

Adam and Jimmy are said to be still not on speaking terms, with the  final reportedly been thrown into chaos, as the sportsman faces losing 20% of his show fee if he refuses to appear.
