Adam Thomas’s dramatic victory on I’m A Celebrity… South Africa may have secured him the crown, but it came at a cost — and his twin brother Scott Thomas has now stepped forward to defend him in the wake of one of the most chaotic finales in the show’s history.
The Adam Thomas was officially crowned Jungle Legend during Friday night’s explosive live final. Yet instead of celebrating, he appeared visibly shaken, his joy overshadowed by the intense confrontations that unfolded on stage.
The tension erupted when Jimmy Bullard and David Haye reignited their feud with Adam, accusing him once again over alleged off-camera incidents during filming in South Africa. The situation escalated so quickly that several campmates reportedly walked off stage, leaving the atmosphere fractured and deeply uncomfortable.
Despite the chaos, Adam managed to hold himself together long enough to accept his title. However, fans quickly noticed his absence from the spin-off show Unpacked, where winners usually appear to reflect on their journey — further fueling concern over what had really happened behind the scenes.
Now, his twin brother Scott Thomas has broken his silence with an emotional Instagram post, sharing a family photo featuring Adam, his wife Caroline, and their brother Ryan.
Scott didn’t hold back as he addressed the situation directly, keeping his words raw and unfiltered: “That wasn’t an easy watch last night but our brother handled it with dignity and courage.
“I’m not sure how @adamthomas21 the most pure hearted man I know ended up amongst all this but what I do know is that he’s a worthy winner.
“Not just in the jungle but in life as all he wants is the best for other people.
“Don’t EVER let anyone take your shine away from you my brother, you deserve nothing but the best and there is a whole army of people behind you who love you so much!
“So glad we were there to be with you last night and you will always have us by your side. If they come for you, they come for us.”
His message struck a powerful chord — not only defending Adam’s character but drawing a clear line in the sand as the fallout from the final continues to spiral.
