Adam Thomas Opens Up About Therapy Journey Following Controversial Clash with David Haye

0

Adam Thomas has opened up about his emotional struggles following his experience on “I’m A Celebrity” and a contentious relationship with fellow contestant David Haye. The actor, known for his role in “Waterloo Road,” shared that he has started therapy as a result of the turmoil he faced after the show.

During their time in the South African jungle, Thomas, 37, and Haye, 45, clashed frequently, leading to a strained relationship. The filming took place in September of last year, and since then, tensions have continued to simmer between the two.

Haye has been criticized for his behavior towards Thomas, with accusations of bullying surfacing after several comments made by the boxer were aired. In one particular incident, Haye labeled Thomas ‘useless’ after the actor opted out of a trial due to health concerns.

The animosity didn’t stop there. On Tuesday night, Haye took another jab at Thomas via social media, further exacerbating the situation. In the aftermath of these events, Thomas has sought therapy to cope with the impact of their jungle encounter.

In a candid conversation on the podcast “At Home With The Thomas Bros,” which he hosts with his brothers Scott and Ryan, Adam admitted that the ongoing feud has significantly affected him. He described the conflict as something that deeply troubled him, underscoring the emotional toll it has taken.

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.

The Waterloo Road star, 37, had a fractious relationship with boxer David, 45, during their time together in the South African jungle, which was filmed in September last year

‘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.’

Adam also said: ‘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?”‘

He continued: ‘I think, in a different environment, on the outside if this happened to you, you’d go, “Oh alright, he doesn’t like me, I’m going to leave the situation”, but because you’re in an environment like that, there’s nowhere to hide. You just have to grin and bear it.’ 

Adam went on to explain that he asked his therapist why he was unable to ‘stick up for myself’, and was told he has been constantly putting everyone else ahead of himself, not wanting to draw ‘attention’ to his own struggles.

Reflecting on David’s swipes, Adam said: ‘I just took it, and took it, and took it, until eventually it got to a point where I was like, “I’m literally at breaking point here”.

‘I remember saying to him, “I can’t talk to you anymore bro, if you’re not going to apologise for what you did”, and I reeled off all the things that he did, and he knew exactly why he did it.

‘I was like, “Are you not going to apologise?” and he was like, “I was trying to teach you a lesson” and I was like, “I don’t need a lesson off you bro”.’

Adam said once David was eliminated it felt like a ‘huge weight had lifted’ and he ‘could breathe’.  

He added that David has since apologised to him as he told his brothers the boxer has ‘a heart of gold’.

‘I know he gives off this bravado but deep down, I know he’s a good guy. He really opened up to me, explained why he is the way he is.’ 

Before Adam’s new comments on the ‘bullying’ row were released, David took another vile swipe at him online. 

Taking to his social media on Tuesday evening, David posted an AI-created image of himself in his boxing shorts sternly flashing his middle finger.

Alongside the picture, audio of Adam also plays, where he told David during an exchange in camp: ‘I’ve got no issues David, you’re my only issue right now.’ 

David sparked bullying complaints from viewers when Adam, who suffers from autoimmune condition psoriatic arthritis, told his campmates during last Friday’s episode that he wasn’t feeling well enough to participate in the Termite Terror trial.

The boxer took aim at him, and said: ‘Who gives a s**t if he doesn’t feel well. He’s a grown-ass man. I don’t like guys who are a bit useless.

‘I hate them useless guys. He is useless.’

As Adam suggested he wouldn’t eat that night as a result of backing out, his campmates refused to let that happen.

However, David chimed in suggesting ‘his portion should be a little bit smaller than everyone else’s’.

Adam confronted David over his reaction to his dinner portion, calling him over and saying: ‘Right, me and you outside now.’

Irritated David responded: ‘We got a lot less than we would have had,’ as the dessert was served up, to which Scarlett Moffatt ended the row, saying: ‘Leave him alone.’

I’m A Celebrity hosts Ant McPartlin and Declan Donnelly said they were left ‘uncomfortable’ by the exchanges in rare comments on spin-off series Unpacked.

Ant said: ‘It’s not a nice watch. He just kind of picks and picks at them.

‘Adam has had a bit of a tough time and he’s not coping well. Clearly the banter has got too much. But David won’t stop.’

Dec agreed: ‘It’s kind of crossed the line from banter. I don’t find it comfortable to watch.’ 

After leaving camp, David told the hosts on his relationship with Adam: ‘No bad blood from my side. Look, 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.

‘I was actually on my best behaviour there, honestly.’

In a new post to fans on Wednesday ahead of the I’m A Celebrity final, Adam shared a group shot with his female campamtes Scarlett Moffattt, Ashley Roberts, Sinitta, Gemma Collins and Beverley Callard.

Alongside the shot, he penned: ‘I just want to say thank you to all these incredible women…

‘You’ve supported me in ways I don’t even think you fully understand, through the doubt, the unknown, and all the moments in between. I’ve always had a soft heart but a strong soul, and this whole experience really tested that.

‘For months, I didn’t know how any of this would be perceived. Even though I stood by every decision I made, there was always that little voice wondering how it would be shown, how it would be edited, how people would see me. And that uncertainty wasn’t easy to carry.

‘But now, reading your messages, seeing your comments, feeling your support, it’s given me something I can’t even put into words. It’s brought me peace. It’s reminded me that staying true to myself was always enough.

‘I was never in it to win. I just refused to let them win by breaking me…’

Terrifying Bear Encounter: Hiker’s Close Call in Angeles National Forest Captured on Viral Video

0

A chilling encounter in the Angeles National Forest has surfaced on video, depicting a hiker’s unnerving face-off with a large brown bear. The footage reveals a man, clad in hiking attire and a hat, making the unusual choice to approach the bear rather than retreat from it.

In a surprising twist, the man attempts to deter the bear by shaking bells, a common method intended to spook wildlife. However, the tactic seems to backfire as the visibly agitated bear charges at him. The video, which abruptly ends as tension peaks, was captured by a fellow hiker in the vicinity.

“I thought this guy must be out of his mind, and I just hoped he wouldn’t get hurt,” said Erin Chiu, who filmed the encounter, in an interview with NBCLA.

Chiu voiced her bewilderment at the man’s decision, noting, “Honestly, I’m not sure what he was thinking, because the last thing you’d expect is someone to actually move toward a bear. I was pretty worried for his safety at that moment.”

“I’m not sure what was going through his mind, to be honest, because the last thing you would expect is for someone to actually walk toward a bear. At that point, I was a little concerned for his safety.”

Chiu told the network he hikes the same trail at least three times a week for about 10 miles each time and had never seen a bear there until now.

He said he and his friends hiked up the trail and hid behind bushes to let the animal pass, avoiding any confrontation.

The hiker was eventually able to slowly back away as the bear moved toward him. Experts say the most important thing to remember if you encounter a bear is simple: do not run.

According to the National Park Service, running can trigger a chase response, as bears can easily outrun humans.

Instead, people should remain calm, stand their ground, and speak in a low voice so the animal recognizes them as human, as most encounters end without injury when the bear does not feel threatened.

Bear sightings have become increasingly common in Los Angeles County, particularly in foothill communities like Monrovia, Sierra Madre, Castaic, and Arcadia.

This encounter occurred in Arcadia, in Los Angeles County.

Deliberate Car Crash at Philadelphia Police Station Leaves Five Injured, Commissioner Reports | Watch the Video

0

PHILADELPHIA — In a shocking incident, a man intentionally plowed his SUV into the 2nd District headquarters of the Philadelphia Police Department on Tuesday afternoon, as confirmed by Police Commissioner Kevin Bethel.

The alarming event unfolded around 1:40 p.m.

“This was undoubtedly a purposeful act,” Bethel stated during a press briefing.

Commissioner provides update on crash into 2nd District police building on April 21, 2026.

Police reported that five individuals, who were in the lobby awaiting police assistance at the time of the crash, sustained injuries. Fortunately, none of the injuries were deemed serious.

Earlier that day, at approximately 11:45 a.m., officers had been called to address a disturbance involving the suspect and his father, according to Bethel.

At some point later, police say the suspect was seen driving south before making a hard right turn and crashing into the district headquarters.

Video obtained by ABC Philadelphia affiliate WPVI shows the driver plowing into the police station after people were standing nearby.

A witness said the driver tried to run from the scene, but he was tackled and arrested.

WPVI’s helicopter was overhead as crews worked to assess the situation.

Crews later boarded up the damaged building and reopened the road. Despite the damage, Bethel said the district continues to serve the community.

Witnesses described a chaotic scene.

Clarence Armstrong Jr. said he was in the bathroom when the SUV hit the building.

“I feel pretty lucky,” he said. “I hear the loudest boom. And shattering is one of the most startling sounds I think I ever heard in my life. Metal and glass everywhere, and still some moans and screams from people.”

Chopper 6 was over the scene after a car crashed into the Philadelphia Police Department’s 2nd District building in Rhawnhurst.

Another witness, Tiffany Ilconich, said she saw officers take the suspect into custody.

“They tackled him to the ground, and put him in cuffs and took him,” she said. “I was scared.”

Police said the bomb squad inspected the vehicle before it was towed for further investigation. Bethel said officers executed search warrants after the crash and are working with the FBI.

Armstrong said the incident left him shaken.

“For somebody to just run into a police station with no regard for who can be there, kids, men, women or police officers, is pretty sad, and these people really do need some kind of help.”

Businesses along the street closed early Tuesday but were expected to reopen on Wednesday.

Prosecutors Seek Death Penalty for Woman Convicted of Killing Two Ex-Partners

0

Background: Susan Avalon in court (Hillsborough County State”s Attorney’s Office, 13th Judicial Circuit). Inset: Timothy Flecher (Legacy.com).

A woman from Florida is facing the possibility of the death sentence after allegedly shooting her two ex-husbands on the same day. The incidents have resulted in murder charges being filed against her in two separate counties.

Susan Avalon, aged 51, is accused of fatally shooting her former spouses, 55-year-old Timothy Flecher and 54-year-old David Scott, on December 17, 2025. Flecher was discovered with a fatal gunshot wound at his residence in Tampa. Recently, the Hillsborough County State’s Attorney’s Office announced in a press release that they intend to pursue the death penalty in Avalon’s case against Flecher’s murder. More details can be found in their official statement.

Avalon has entered a plea of not guilty for both incidents.

According to reports from Law&Crime, Avalon first drew the attention of the Manatee County Sheriff’s Office as they investigated Scott’s death. He was found shot in the chest at his Bradenton, Florida home. Before succumbing to his injuries, Scott managed to inform responding deputies, via a 911 call from the couple’s teenage daughter, that his ex-wife might be responsible for the shooting.

At the scene, investigators noted a spilled cup of soup from Panera Bread near Scott. Surveillance footage from a nearby Panera Bread location allegedly showed a person resembling Avalon taking a bag of food from a shelf meant for Uber Eats and DoorDash drivers. Manatee County Sheriff Rick Wells remarked during a press briefing, “She doesn’t pay for it, it’s not hers. She just decides this is gonna be her way to the front door.”

When the police arrived at Avalon’s home to question her about the shooting, they saw her come out of the house with “bleach and cleaning rags,” then got inside the silver Honda Odyssey parked in her driveway and began to “wipe down the car.” Detectives told Avalon they were there to talk about her ex-husband, and she reportedly responded, “Which one?”

According to Manatee County authorities, Avalon was under the impression that they were from Hillsborough County, where Flecher, her other ex-husband, was found dead at his home by the Tampa Police Department.

The Tampa Bay Times reported that someone called 911 using Flecher’s phone, but the caller never said anything. While the line was open, the phone picked up sounds “consistent with possible gunshots” before the call was disconnected. A dispatcher called the number back and a woman picked up, reportedly saying that she was exercising before saying, “just hit the button” and hanging up again.

According to the Tampa Bay Times’ reporting, Flecher’s neighbors saw a woman wearing a gray hoodie and jeans leave his home in a silver Honda Odyssey. The woman seen on camera allegedly taking food from Panera Bread was wearing the same clothes, as well as the woman seen leaving Scott’s home after that alleged shooting.

Avalon’s current boyfriend reportedly identified the female voice from the 911 call made from Flecher’s phone as Avalon.

Avalon was charged with first-degree murder in connection with Flecher’s case in Hillsborough County and second-degree murder in Scott’s case in Manatee County. She is in custody in Hillsborough County, where she is being held without bond. Her next court date in Hillsborough County is July 9; she is scheduled to appear in Manatee County court on July 30.

Ipswich Town’s Premier League Ambitions: £100M Investment, Strategic Signings, and Lessons from the Past

0

Mark Ashton, the chairman and chief executive of Ipswich Town, once likened managing the club to the daunting task of constructing an airplane mid-flight.

Back in the summer of 2022, the Tractor Boys were preparing for their fourth consecutive season in League One. Newly appointed manager Kieran McKenna was still finding his footing, yet the club harbored aspirations far beyond the third tier of English football.

Yet, even their most optimistic supporters couldn’t have predicted the rapid ascent that awaited. Just two years later, they found themselves soaring into the Premier League.

Although their initial stint in the top flight ended in relegation, they are now on the brink of promotion once more. With just a month remaining in the season, Ipswich sits second in the table. However, their journey has been anything but smooth, as evidenced by a recent win over Norwich followed by a surprising loss to Portsmouth, a team battling relegation. This sets the stage for a crucial encounter this weekend against fifth-placed Middlesbrough.

Amidst this backdrop lies the recurring question: will McKenna still be at the helm should Ipswich achieve promotion again?

Kieran McKenna's future will have a huge bearing on whether Ipswich can make it stick if they go up again this season

The run-in has not been smooth, with victory at rivals Norwich followed by a shock defeat away to relegation-threatened Portsmouth this week

The run-in has not been smooth, with victory at rivals Norwich followed by a shock defeat away to relegation-threatened Portsmouth this week 

When Daily Mail Sport spoke to Ipswich insiders about whether he the head coach will still be here next season, one source mentioned they thought he would likely ‘wait for something like a Bournemouth’ to come calling.

Not long after putting the phone down, the news broke that Andoni Iraola would be leaving the Cherries this summer. My phone pinged. ‘What did I just say about Bournemouth…’

McKenna was on their wanted list and was said to be open to the move. But as things stand, the Cherries are in talks to hire former Borussia Dortmund and RB Leipzig head coach Marco Rose, who’s out of work and would be cheaper to appoint than McKenna, whose buyout clause is understood to be around £5million.

Many thought McKenna would leave when he last took Ipswich up too. He has previously turned down Brighton and Crystal Palace, while approaches from Manchester United and Chelsea never quite panned out.

Irrespective of McKenna’s future, the key to Ipswich’s survival would rest on how much they have learned their lessons from the last time. When finishing up his post-mortem from their relegation last summer, Ashton admitted they had signed the wrong type of player as part of a £130m splurge.

‘One of the things we learnt was that gap in the physicality, the physical attributes of players that are required in the Premier League,’ said Ashton. ‘We have to look at recruiting a different type of player, a player with a different set of physical attributes. I think it’s recruitment, recruitment, recruitment.’

And it’s an area in which they struggled. You can’t just splash the cash and hope for the best. When they were in League One and the Championship, they hired Brighton’s Jamestown Analytics recruitment model but had to stop once they became Premier League rivals.

Without it, Ipswich struggled. Of the first 39 players signed under McKenna, only one – Jens Cajuste, on loan from Napoli – came from abroad and that was largely because he failed a medical at Brentford with a view that if he’s good enough for their model, he’s good enough for ours.

Ipswich's rapid rise to the Premier League came so quickly that they weren't equipped to deal with the top flight, and were immediately relegated

Ipswich have since gone about trying to put that right. In September, they hired former Manchester United chief scout Mick Court, who spent nearly two decades at Old Trafford, as the new director of recruitment and then Peter Braund, also from United and a former colleague of McKenna, as head of European scouting. The club are in the process of building their own data model, and hope the £30m development of the Playford Road training ground will entice new signings.

Azor Matusiwa, the rough-and-tumble defensive midfielder signed from Rennes, has quickly become Ipswich’s lynchpin and fits the profile they would need in the Premier League. Even he was spotted partly by chance, though, as the club were scouting one of his team-mates.

Sindre Walle Egeli, though, the teenage Norwegian striker who became the most expensive signing in Championship history when Ipswich beat Porto and Club Bruges to his £17.5m signature, is yet to prove he’s the next Erling Haaland with just four goals all season and falling down the pecking order.

It would be little surprise if Ipswich splash more than £100m following promotion. A striker is expected to be top of their list after failing to replace Liam Delap last summer, and some around club would not be surprised to see him return on loan next season if he continues to struggle at Chelsea.

The money is there, as it was last time. Back then, the club went in hot pursuit of Elliot Anderson and even considered his £100,000-a-week wage demands before a refusal to accept a relegation clause ended negotiations.

Similar reluctance amid various targets led Ipswich to sign, as one source put it, a ‘Championship super-squad’ – players good enough to dominate in the second tier but, as it proved, not equipped for the Premier League.

They could do with the kind of experienced head that Granit Xhaka has brought to Sunderland. Ipswich hoped Kalvin Phillips would play that role last time around but did anything but.

While they are learning off the pitch, McKenna seems to be doing so on it as well. Their rapid journey through the division was characterised by thrilling, attacking football – ‘you score three, we’ll score four’.

This season, they have been far more pragmatic. In their promotion campaign, they were the highest scorers in the league but shipped only one goal fewer than 18th-placed QPR.

This time, they’re scoring less but have the joint-best defensive record in the division. Ipswich are averaging fewer shots but facing fewer too and, in attack, are producing more than double the fast breaks per game they did last time in the Championship.

Even with promotion in their hands, there’s still often been a strange sense around the place. They are no longer the plucky underdogs but one of the pre-season favourites for the title.

The departure of many of the double-promotion heroes like captain Sam Morsy, Cameron Burgess, Conor Chaplin and Nathan Broadhead left an emotional hole yet to be filled.

It also doesn’t help when you get into divisive pickles off the pitch either. Last month, a Reform UK campaign video was published of leader Nigel Farage at Portman Road: on the pitch and in the dressing room surrounded by Ipswich shirts with ‘Farage 10’ on the back.

A backlash followed, not just because of the prominence of a controversial political figure using the club as a promotional tool but because of how messily the club tried to cover it up.

They claimed they didn’t know who booked on the stadium tour until it was too late, only for it later to emerge an associate of Ashton had reached out to Farage in the first place to go for lunch, believed to be over their shared dislike for the new football regulator. They also claimed that Reform had paid for the shirts only for it to be later revealed that six of them were gifted.

Members of staff made complaints to the club’s HR department and Ashton was later forced to apologise for any ‘hurt and pain’ caused. He talked of ‘mistruths’ and ‘mistakes’ but failed to elaborate on either.

He was lucky that Ipswich’s ownership model had not long shifted from the US pension fund for police officers and firefighters to one that included various investors like Ed Sheeran.

One source close to the pension fund, one strong on community whose motto is ‘running towards adversity’, suggested to Daily Mail Sport that had it still been them in charge, Ashton may not have come out of it quite so cleanly.

But, as always in football, results help shift narrative and victory over arch-rivals Norwich is a better way than any.

How they fare in their final five games, starting at home to Middlesbrough on Sunday and including a daunting trip to red-hot Southampton at the end of the month will, more than anything, define whether this aircraft can remain airborne while the next bits are built.

We’ll see.”

She continued, “I’ve already gotten some messages from my subscribers … saying that they’re gonna stick around no matter what and they don’t care what they look like.

Sami replied with a bikini selfie, “I got silicone, moderate profile, under the muscle, 350 cc.”

Chicago Alderman Criticizes Mayor Johnson’s Approach to Teen Takeovers, Claims Police Are ‘Handcuffed

0

A Chicago alderman is raising concerns over a surge in youth-led disruptions occurring under Democrat Mayor Brandon Johnson’s administration, claiming that law enforcement is hindered from effectively intervening.

Chicago Alderman Raymond Lopez, also a Democrat, expressed to Fox News Digital that unless the mayor addresses the issue, the city faces a potentially “long and harsh” summer plagued by these youth and street disruptions. Lopez pointed out that current Chicago policies limit police from adequately dealing with the recurring disturbances.

“Mayor Brandon Johnson seems to be falling short in curbing these activities,” Lopez remarked. “Chicago has transformed into a hotspot for unlawful street gatherings, attracting large numbers of young people who converge on specific areas. Whether it involves criminal group actions or unauthorized vehicle takeovers, individuals are drawn here with the understanding that such actions are tolerated.”

Lopez added, “They are aware that they can often escape consequences, and frustratingly, our police are frequently restricted in their ability to intervene effectively at these events.”

Lopez said that Chicago police officers are not allowed to “fully engage” with those participating in teen takeovers and do what’s needed to stop them.

“We’ve never done what it takes to authorize our officers to fully engage with these individuals, to box them in, to corral them so that they can’t escape, to arrest them, to impound their vehicles like the law requires us to do,” Lopez said. “And we have never really pursued who is behind the promotions of these events on social media. We know that they are spread online through Facebook, Snapchat, Instagram, and others, but yet we do almost nothing to find who is at the root of those posts of these gatherings.”

Lopez’s remarks come after no arrests were made at a South Side street takeover over the weekend, underscoring his complaints about a lack of accountability for organizers.

Video taken from Chicago’s Gresham neighborhood over the weekend shows a large group of people surrounding a totaled car on fire, according to ABC 7 News. One individual was seen throwing an object into the car, engulfed in flames, which exploded seconds later.

Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson last week avoided using the term “takeover” in a social media post, instead warning residents of a possible “teen trend” that was set to take place on the city’s South Side.

“Chicago, there are credible reports of a teen trend forming in Hyde Park later today,” Johnson wrote on X. “Parents, be aware of where your children are going this evening. DO NOT allow your children to attend one of these gatherings; they are dangerous and can often turn violent.”

“Together we can keep our youth and our communities safe,” Johnson added.

Video from a March 30 teen takeover showed a large crowd of people climbing on cars, crowding streets and sidewalks and dancing at intersections.

During that teen takeover, three curfew violations were issued and one 16-year-old girl was arrested on charges of unlawful possession of a weapon and disorderly conduct.

Jason Hale, a resident of Chicago’s Hyde Park, told Fox 32 that his car was one of 30 vehicles damaged during a teen takeover in his area.

“Yeah, it’s bad. The hood is messed up, terrible. A thousand worth of damage, dents everywhere, footprints everywhere,” he said.

Fox News Digital reached out to Johnson’s office for comment.

Southern Australia is set to experience an unexpected surge of warmth this week as temperatures climb ahead of the winter season.

Residents in Adelaide, Melbourne, and Hobart can look forward to a series of days with temperatures exceeding 20 degrees Celsius as the weekend approaches.

In Adelaide, the forecast predicts high temperatures reaching 27 to 28 degrees from today through Sunday, before cooling off once again.

Meanwhile, Melbourne will enjoy slightly cooler conditions, with highs anticipated to reach the mid-20s until the beginning of next week.

Similarly, Hobart is expected to bask in temperatures ranging from the low to mid-20s until Monday.

Weatherzone reported these temperatures were solidly above the monthly average for Adelaide (22.2 degrees), Melbourne (20.4 degrees), and Hobart (17.5 degrees).

“South Australia, Victoria and Tasmania are all being impacted by northerlies circulating anti-clockwise around the (high pressure system), dragging warm air southwards from the interior of the continent,” Weatherzone said.

“This pattern will remain in place for several days as the high drifts east.”

Dry conditions in those areas are also expected for the rest of the week.
