Olivia Attwood fired a “shot” at Matt Hancock as she exited the jungle for medical reasons.

She had to leave the set for a precautionary medical check less than 24 hours after joining the program, and the medical team informed her that it was not safe for her to return.

As Attwood walked away, she posted on her Instagram account that she was “heartbroken.”
The post teased: “Who’s going to roast Matt Hancock now?” in reference to the former health secretary, who is due in camp.
The statement, which was apparently shared on Attwood’s behalf on Instagram, read: “To say Olivia is heartbroken would be an understatement, she dreamed of doing ‘I’m a Celeb’ 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.”
It added: “P.S Who’s going to roast Matt Hancock now?? :((.”
Viewers were also disappointed that Attwood would not be present to question the politician, who had been widely chastised for agreeing to appear on the show.
“Honestly gutted we won’t get to see Olivia Attwood and Matt Hancock share the same living space,” said one.
“I was very much looking forward to the Olivia Atwood vs Matt Hancock showdown.”
“Can’t believe Olivia has had to leave, been robbed of her having to live with Matt Hancock,” said someone else.
“That’s a big miss, she’s brilliant television.” tweeted another.
