I’m A Celeb: Jamie Lynn kisses Sam Thompson after celebration

Jamie Lynn Spears has quit I’m A Celebrity…Get Me Out Of Here! after just one week in the Australian jungle, it has been confirmed.

A spokesperson from the show told Express.co.uk: “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.”

Her exit comes a day after the American, who is Britney Spears’ younger sister, threatened to quit the ITV reality series.

On Tuesday’s drama-filled instalment of the programme, Jamie was sobbing in camp once more.

During heavy rainfall, she removed herself from the main camp and was leaning against a tree saying how “miserable” she was.

Since entering camp, the mother has been telling the other celebrities how much she missed her children who live in the States.

After the campmates were treated to some chocolate by leader Sam Thompson, Jamie admitted she was “pi***d off” and homesick.

Sam later mocked Jamie over her tears and branded her the “the girl that cried wolf”.

Jamie, who was clearly annoyed at his comment, clapped back: “Guess what, I didn’t leave.”

However, Made In Chelsea star Sam said: “Jamie you are now the girl who cried wolf. That is the problem, you’re not leaving. You are gonna be here longer than we are.”
