Jamie Lynn Spears, sister of pop icon Britney Spears, has left the popular ITV show I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here. Despite her early exit, she will still receive her full payment from ITV.
The news of Jamie Lynn's departure was announced on Wednesday.
She had a tough week in the Australian jungle, missing her daughters Maddie, 15, and Ivey, 5. Reports suggest that she was the second-highest-paid star on the show, with a rumoured fee of £250,000. An ITV spokesperson confirmed: "Jamie Lynn Spears has left I'm A Celebrity...Get Me Out Of Here! on medical grounds.
She's been a fantastic campmate who has triumphed at trials and bonded well with her fellow celebrities." On Wednesday night's episode, her fellow campmates were been informed that she won't be returning to the camp. Jamie Lynn is the second celebrity to quit this season. Before Jamie's departure, she had hinted at wanting to leave.
On Tuesday night's episode, she got really upset when Sam Thompson compared her to the boy who cried wolf. Jamie told Sam: "I hate it here so much, I hate it here so much, I hate it here so much. I hate it, I hate it, I hate it here.
This place is where people go to have the worst days of their lives.
Dear God, please help me to make it." "I think I've got to leave, I think I've got to leave," she added. Last night, telly fans saw Jamie Lynn break down over a piece of chocolate.
The camp didn't win their luxury items but did get a bar of chocolate which they shared. Fred Sirieix gave them all their bit of chocolate in his apron.
