You'll all have a right to reply.I knew it was going too smoothly! Mr Donnelly joked.The live clash added to an already turbulent series for Mr Thomas, who had previously accused Mr Haye of bullying, an allegation the boxer denied.Mr Haye later claimed on an ITV spin-off Mr Thomas played the victim card during their disputes.Mr Thomas addressed the earlier fallout on Instagram, writing: He broke me in there, he pushed me to my limits, and I've told David this, and he's apologised, and that's that! I've moved on now, am not one to hold a grudge.Following Tuesday's episode, Mr Bullard shared footage of Sinitta claiming the C-word had been used during the argument.Wow thanks @thesinittaofficial shame that wasn't shown! My version will be told Friday! Can't wait to see you all....well some of yous!! he wrote.Mr Thomas later said the row was really random and unexpected, adding emotions had got the better of him in camp.Our Standards: The GB News Editorial Charter
