Monday’s episode of I’m A Celebrity will see another celebrity leave the camp, but not because of an elimination.

On Monday night, it will be revealed that Janice Dickinson has been removed from the show after she hurt herself during the night.

In the show, producers will inform the campmates that Janice tripped over during the night as she walked to the long drop. The American model was seen by the on-site medics. She was then taken to hospital for further tests as a precaution. Producers then decided that it was best she did not return to camp. Instead, Janice was told to “rest up”.

During the show, Helen Flanagan will read out a heartfelt message from Janice to her campmates.

In her exit interview, the 68-year-old spoke about her injury.

“I could have been the one to be second runner up or even win this series because I was just so steadfast and physiological with it,” Janice said when asked about her fall.

She then continued, saying: “I was just waiting and biding my time with it all. I did my fair share in standing up, falling down. Getting my face in the dirt.”

The star then continued, saying: “I felt like they could have possibly cleaned my wounds and set me back on my path in there. But Production made the right decision in the end to not send me back in.”

“I’m just sad it ended that way. I think I could have gone back in and gone on further.”

Janice then went on to say that one of her favourite moments from the series was just “watching” Fatima Whitbread. She also then said that the campmate she’d bonded with the most was Jordan Banjo.
