OLIVIA Attwood has fuelled mystery surrounding her dramatic exit from I’m A Celebrity.
The Love Island star has kept a low profile since leaving the jungle just 24 hours in.
The model and TV host, 31, suffered a medical issue overnight.
A rep for I’m A Celebrity said at the time she needed to leave the jungle to undergo some medical checks as a precautionary measure.
The continued: “Unfortunately the medical team has advised it is not safe for Olivia to return to camp as there needs to be a further investigation.
“She has been absolutely brilliant and she’ll be very much missed on the show.”
Olivia wanted to go back to camp, but Ant and Dec confirmed she would not be returning to the show.
The reality star’s rep posted on Instagram tonight: “For clarity, Olivia did not leave the jungle due to covid reasons.”
It’s believed Olivia broke the show’s strict Covid bubble by leaving camp.
ITV bosses feared she could potentially infect the other contestants with the virus.
A source said: “She could see it was an impossible situation.”
For Olivia to be allowed back, she would have to endure another week’s isolation, which was deemed “impossible”.
Hosts Ant and Dec announced Olivia’s departure on Monday night’s show but revealed no further details.
Dec said: “You may have seen that unfortunately Olivia Attwood has left the jungle for medical reasons and sadly won’t be returning.”
Ant continued: “She does feature in tonight’s show, which was filmed before she had to leave.”
Olivia, who is in a relationship with Blackburn Rovers midfielder Bradley Dack, 28, has kept silent since her dramatic exit.
Her best friend Georgia Harrison claims she has no idea what has happened to her.
She said: “To not know . . . it’s a bit scary. She just disappeared — one minute she was there and one minute she was gone. It is one of the strangest situations I have ever seen unfold on television.
“I haven’t heard from her, which I thought was quite surprising as we are close. But I don’t know what she is going through, she might just need a bit of time to take in what has happened.
“Maybe she just doesn’t want to speak to anyone. Sometimes when you are down, you just want to shut everyone out for a bit.
“I have sent her loads of messages and her messages are delivering to her phone. Some of the other girls in our group have messaged her too.
“None of us know anything. Her boyfriend Bradley told one of the other girls she was fine, and that is the only thing we know.”
After she left, Olivia’s reps posted on Instagram: “To say Olivia is heartbroken would be an understatement. She dreamed of doing IAC for years.”
They added: “You will hear the truth from Olivia in due course.”
An ITV spokesman declined to comment.
