Jockey Frankie and ex-boxer Tony’s arrival was confirmed by Ant and Dec in Wednesday night’s episode as the late arrivals make up this year’s 12 famous faces and viewers are already excited. Taking to X, formally Twitter, fans all had the same reaction to the pair, with one writing: “Frankie and Tony Bellew are badly needed in that camp.”
A second agreed: “Frankie and Tony…. The celebs we didn’t know we needed,” as a third said: “Genius twist. Can’t wait to see Frankie & Tony mix things up tomorrow.” A fourth viewer commented: “Thank god Tony and Frankie are going to bring some life to this series.”
It comes as one campmate teased an early exit was on the way just days into the new series. Jamie Lynn Spears sobbed once more on the show as she became increasingly homesick and missed her kids – leading to her threatening to quit.
But when a chance came for some of the campmates to win the luxury items of those taking part, Jamie Lynn hoped she would receive a picture of her two youngsters. But things did not go to plan and despite being hopeful to win Jamie Lynn her snaps, the group were unsuccessful. As they broke the news to her, Jamie headed to the Bush Telegraph and broke down in tears as she slammed bosses.
She soon threatened to quit too wanting to “go home”, before telling her co-stars: “I quit”. She told the crew in the Telegraph: “I feel guilty this is not okay. I want go home… why did you put them through that?” As she stormed out, she told her co-stars: “I went to tell them this is not fair. I quit. I don’t wanna do it, I don’t wanna be here, that’s so unfair that was torture. F**k this.” As her co-stars comforted her she said: “I just wanna see my kids that’s it, I am struggling.”
But as the episode went on she changed her mind, telling her pals she was staying and wasn’t leaving. But viewers were convinced she would leave, taking to X to share their thoughts One viewer said: “Jamie’s going home tomorrow I’m calling it,” as another agreed: “Jamie Lynn will stay just long enough to earn her fee then she’ll quit!” A third added: “Jamie Lynn is about to quit,” as a fourth said: “Jamie Lynn wanting to go home already.”
