South Africa reportedly descended into chaos a week ago. Adam Thomas was reportedly declared the winner of the ITV series. Speaking on their podcast, Ant and Dec described the conclusion as a 'weird night of TV', according to media reports.

The friction between Brook and the presenting duo is said to date back to 2009 when she briefly served as a BGT judge. Reports indicate Ant and Dec were unhappy that she was recruited without their approval. Over the years, subtle digs have reportedly been exchanged through interviews and memoirs.

Ant and Dec are the sweetest, and they were so excited that I was doing the show. I think they are really involved in the casting of it.

Last year, Brook reportedly appeared on I'm A Celebrity... and revisited the feud in an interview. The dispute is believed to have originated from the idea that Brook was unaware of what the pair did when she joined the panel.

It remains uncertain if the falling out was genuine or media speculation.

They were really fun and supportive. I was so excited when I saw them for the first time – I was in a helicopter looking down at them. I actually got star-struck, even though I worked with them all those years ago.
