After an overnight visit to hospital due to sustaining a cracked rib in a bushtucker trial Kimberley Davies bravely returned to the jungle.

She told the Daily Mirror: “I want to show people I can tough it out and I’m not a quitter. Of course I can go on to become Queen of the Jungle. I’ve broken my rib. It hurts a bit but tell everyone I’m OK and thanks for their concern.”".

But six hours later Kimberley was forced to eat her words and as the pain became more severe she asked if she could leave the jungle camp and return home.

In a statement TV bosses said: “She was planning to spend another night in camp but decided to leave at 6.20pm. This was a decision which we entirely understood and fully supported. We wish Kimberley well.”

ITV have said that Kimberely will not be replaced at this late stage. One eviction night will be cancelled to ensure three celebrities remain for the show finale.
