David Haye Hits Out At ‘Victim’ Adam Thomas In New Interview
Emmerdale actor Adam Thomas has revealed that he’s literally in therapy after David Haye left him ‘broken’ during their time on I’m A Celebrity’ , and this has prompted the British boxer to do another interview where he has another dig at Thomas.
Haye reckons Thomas will go on to win the show’s live final this Friday because he’s a ‘victim’ and the audience will feel sorry for him.
He told The Sun: “I think he’s actually going to win the show, off the kind of the victim, because he’s the victim in there.
“I gave him some banter, so he’s crying about it. You got all the old biddies watching it. ‘Oh, isn’t he isn’t he kind’. They see him as like a ‘put your arm around him and comfort him’. He’s a very unthreatening personality.”
Haye also revealed that things are OK between them now as the boxer ‘arranged to sit next to him’ on the 10 hour flight home after filming the show.
He said: “So I then wound him up for a little while, gave him some more banter on the plane.
“But, we actually talked and I explained to him this is just who I am and where I’ve been. I did [apologise], I said ‘if I’ve genuinely hurt your feelings…’, but I hadn’t known he was crying.
“The last thing he wanted on that overnight flight was me sitting next to him leaning over the lad chatting to him. But we had a laugh, we had a laugh at the end of it. I think at the end of the flight he was like, ‘OK, I’m glad.’
“He was glad I actually rearranged the seats to sit next to him.”
During their time on the show, Haye, 45, had told Thomas, 37, to “stop whining” after the actor, who suffers from psoriatic arthritis, sat out a trial due to feeling unwell and dehydrated.
Haye told him: “Stop whining about dehydration. You ain’t done sh** since you’ve been here.
On Adam’s illness: “Coincidentally whenever there is something to do he is feeling unwell. I don’t like guys who are useless. He is.”
To campmates who defended Adam: “He’s a grown ass man… Who gives a s***.”
He also mocked Thomas for saying the jungle was “the hardest thing he’s ever been through”, stating: “I’ve been immersed in tough boxing gyms since I was ten years old. Literally fighting daily, much bigger men than myself, pushing myself to the limits, physically and mentally. I won the world heavyweight championship against a seven-foot Russian giant.
‘When a grown man tells me that a fun TV show – where we’re being paid handsomely every single day – is the hardest thing he’s ever been through, it’s just not a frequency I recognise.“
So it sounds like they’ve squashed the beef, even if Haye is still taking shots and Thomas has been left working through the trauma in therapy. In the end, he’ll probably come out this a stronger personality who will stand up for himself in similar situations in the future, so that’s good. Onwards and upwards!
