21 Apr
Summary
- A campmate has withdrawn from the competition due to medical advice.
- The unexpected exit caused significant emotional distress among other contestants.
- Eight contestants now remain in the running for the final prize.

In a surprising turn of events, one contestant has been compelled to withdraw from the ongoing competition due to medical advice. The announcement visibly upset the remaining campmates, who gathered as the individual shared the news of their forced exit.
Visibly emotional, the departing star explained, "I didn't feel very well this morning... and the medics have advised I can't return to camp. I've got to go home." They expressed deep disappointment, stating, "I don't want to go. I'm absolutely gutted. I wanted to finish."
The contestant received heartfelt goodbyes before leaving the camp. This withdrawal reduces the number of competitors to eight, all vying for the title of 'legend' in the upcoming live final. Previous seasons have also seen contestants depart for similar medical reasons.
Meanwhile, recent eliminations have seen David Haye and Gemma Collins voted out. Comedian Seann Walsh was the first to be eliminated from this South African series. Haye himself faced criticism for past comments regarding fellow contestant Adam Thomas and his girlfriend.
