I’m a Celebrity’s Ant and Dec break silence on Jamie Lynn Spears’ shock exit after quitting show
I’M A Celebrity hosts Ant and Dec have told viewers Jamie Lynn Spears is “doing fine” after her shock exit from the jungle.
The Geordie duo addressed Jamie Lynn‘s sudden departure while opening the latest instalment of the ITV1 show.
It was previously confirmed that Jamie Lynn had quit I’m A Celebrity on medical grounds and it came after days of her crying.
But Ant and Dec reassured fans that the US actress, 32, is well after leaving camp to head home.
Ant told fans: “We’ve got some breaking news for you, Jamie Lynn Spears has left the camp on medical grounds.”
Dec added: “The good news is Jamie Lynn is doing fine and goes away with our best wishes.”
Just hours before Wednesday night’s I’m A Celebrity aired, it was announced that Jamie Lynn had left the jungle.
An ITV spokesperson said: “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.”
Jamie Lynn’s exit came after she made several threats to leave the jungle.
The star – who is the sister of Britney Spears – had cried about leaving her two daughters behind in the States.
Her departure has also come two days after Grace Dent walked out of I’m A Celebrity.
The food critic also left on medical grounds and has since flown home to the UK.
The Sun Online has confirmed that bosses will not be replacing Jamie Lynn with a stand-by celebrity.
Meanwhile, it has also been feared by fans that YouTuber Nella Rose could be next to leave the jungle after also appearing to struggle under pressure.
