Jamie Lynn Spears has broken her silence after quitting I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here!
In an emotional statement posted to her Instagram, Jamie Lynn reflected on how she felt about her fellow campmates. She penned: “I can’t wait to share with y’all everything about this once in a lifetime experience, but I don’t even know where to start when trying to describe what an incredibly special time and place I had with some of the absolute best humans I have ever met and consider family now.
“Thank y’all for welcoming me into your living rooms night after night, and for supporting me through all the highs and lows. I am so grateful for this show, and all of the wonderful people apart of it!

A spokesperson for ITV confirmed Jamie Lynn would leave the show yesterday, explaining: “Jamie Lynn Spears has left I’m A Celebrity…Get Me Out Of Here! on medical grounds. She’s been a fantastic campmate who has triumphed at trials and bonded well with her fellow celebrities.”
Fans have been speculating Jamie Lynn has been struggling with her mental health and missing her family. One source claimed: “She has been struggling physically and mentally for some time. If you look back even last week this is not a complete surprise by any means.”
Others suggested Jamie Lynn didn’t want to be the first celebrity to leave the show and so followed Grace Dent’s example when she quit the ITV jungle. Grace quit earlier in the week, also on medical grounds.

Meanwhile, body language expert Inbaal Honigman exclusively told Daily Star that she spotted signs Jamie Lynn would leave before she did. She explained that Jamie Lynn also “rarely made eye contact” with her fellow campmates, and spoke with “detached eyes” when telling stories.
Inbaal says: “When Jamie Lynn speaks about her sister, she rarely makes eye contact with the people she’s talking to. Her detached eyes may suggest that she’s not telling a story for her companions, but she’s telling the story for herself.
“Her faraway look says that her mind is elsewhere,” she added – another sign that “submissive” Jamie Lynn would quit the show.

Grace, meanwhile, said she was “overwhelmingly sad” to have to leave the show. She wrote on social media: “Thank you for the outpouring of love I’ve received since I was removed on Monday. I am overwhelmingly sad right now, but determined to keep alive in my heart the huge personal breakthroughs I made over the weeks.
“I spent 15 days without a phone or any contact with loved ones, living much of the time outdoors in a rain forest in very wet weather. It gave me a short, sharp glimpse into the pain some folk worldwide endure. Normal life, forever, will always feel beautiful.”
She went on: “I didn’t go out as I planned or I wanted, but I did what I could, and I did it in a siren red gel manicure without chipping a nail. I didn’t cry when I took off my bra to find a family of mealworms living in the right cup. At some level, this *must* be an achievement.”
