Olivia Attwood is "heartbroken" to leave I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! after just 24 hours on medical grounds.

Olivia Attwood is said to be "heartbroken" that she has been forced to leave I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! after just 24 hours.

Earlier today ITV confirmed that the former Love Island star had withdrawn from the show on the advice of doctors after she suffered a medical incident overnight last night.

Attwood is already said to be en route home to the UK following the shock news, with a picture on social media showing her at the airport waiting for a flight.

In a message posted on her social media, one of her representatives wrote: "To say Olivia is heartbroken would be an understatement.

"She dreamed of doing I'm A Celebrity for years, and was absolutely loving every second of the show and throwing herself into jungle life feet first (just as we knew she would).

"However, for reasons beyond her control her journey has been cut short.

"Your support and kind words have meant the absolute world to her, now as much as it always has.

"You will hear the truth from Olivia in due course and she will be back on your screens in the New Year.

"Ps. Who's going to roast Matt Hancock now??"

Attwood's departure is expected to feature in tonight's episode, which airs at 9pm on ITV.
