Restaurant critic Grace Dent has left the I’m A Celebrity jungle “on medical grounds”, a spokesperson for the show has said.

A spokesperson for the ITV programme said: “Unfortunately Grace Dent has left the show on medical grounds.

“She has been a great campmate and will be missed by her fellow celebrities and viewers alike.”

MasterChef star Dent, 50, had said, before facing the Touchdown of Terror trial, she was struggling in the jungle.

She told campmate Josie Gibson last week: “I’ve had enough. I’ve completely had enough. I just want to go home.”

And she added in the Bush Telegraph – a room where campmates can air their thoughts: “I haven’t got a lot left in me at the moment. I’m just keeping on a face for everybody.”

Dent had been due to face the next trial, named Down The Tubes, with Gibson. EastEnders’ Danielle Harold is expected to take her place.
