I’m A Celeb: Grace Dent leaves the jungle on medical grounds
Former I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! star Kadeena Cox has admitted she is “glad” that Masterchef’s Grace Dent has quit the ITV show.
The ex-campmate revealed that she also “struggled” during her time in the jungle for medical reasons in a candid post on X, the social media platform formerly known as Twitter.
This morning, ITV confirmed Grace, 50, has quit the jungle on medical grounds after the food critic’s appearance sparked concern on Sunday night.
In view of her 14,600 followers, paralympic athlete Kadeena wrote: “Glad she left. Being ill while on that show is not for the faint-hearted.
“I struggled and spent days attached to an IV which was rough while then trying to smile while the cameras are on ya.
