I'm A Celebrity's David Haye Under Fire over Adam Thomas Comments
Earlier this week, former boxer David Haye sparked backlash for "sexist" comments about women, claiming "most ugly girls" need personality because they are not "aesthetically amazing."
The 45-year-old athlete made the remarks while filming the All Stars spin-off in South Africa, returning to the ITV reality program after first appearing in Australia in 2012.
While interacting with Adam Thomas, who has arthritis, Haye dismissed the contestant's physical pain, exclaiming, "Not well? He's a grown arse man," as Harry Redknapp observed.
Social media users have called for Haye to be removed from the camp, with one posting, "Get David out, for his sake and ours watching it." The post received over 1,200 likes.
Haye has a history of heated confrontations. In 2016, he forced Sky Sports to apologize after delivering an X-rated message to Tony Bellew during a press conference before their "Grudge Match" fight.
