Ant and Dec issue update on Jamie Lynn Spears
I’m A Celebrity…Get Me Out Of Here! fans are convinced that Josie Gibson was one of few in the know about Jamie Lynn Spears’ shock departure. Just before yesterday’s episode of the ITV show aired, it was revealed that Britney Spears’ younger sister had exited the show on medical grounds.
Speaking in the Bush Telegraph, This Morning presenter Josie said of a trial done by fellow campmate Nigel Farage: “It’s not the amount of stars we were hoping for, we would have liked 10.
“But Nigel has come back from that trial completely and utterly gutted. I can see it all over his face.” The mention of wanting 10 stars in the trial, despite there being 11 people in camp, sparked speculation that Josie knew Jamie Lynn was set to leave.
One viewer wrote on Twitter: “Soooo I just picked up on what josie said about the stars! She said we was hoping for the full 10? Urm so did she know that Jamie lynn was leaving? #ImaCeleb #ImACelebrity.”
Another wrote: “Also to previous post there was 10 stars across 2 tanks sooooo did they know yesterday that Jamie was leaving???” A third commented: “Josie said about 10 stars when Jamie Lynn was still there.

“So did they know she was leaving? I’m taking it?” While a fourth added: “Wait so when Jamie Lynn was still in camp, there were 11 of them but Josie said they would’ve liked 10 stars for camp when Nigel & Nick came back… Did they know she was gonna leave beforehand?”
On last night’s show, I’m A Celeb co-host Ant McPartlin told viewers: “We’ve got some breaking news for you, Jamie Lynn Spears has left the camp on medical grounds.”
As Declan Donnelly added: “The good news is, Jamie Lynn is doing fine and she goes away with our best wishes.” And on Thursday (November 30), Jamie Lynn broke her silence about leaving.
The Zoey 101 actress was among the first of 12 famous faces to leave their lavish lives behind to take on gruelling challenges in the Australian outback.
Although the 32-year-old impressed viewers with her ability to complete the tasks and win stars for the camp, Jamie-Lynn struggled to adjust to the jungle. Throughout the show, she has frequently been reduced to tears over the difficult conditions in camp while missing her family.
