Olivia Attwood had planned ‘secret’ ways to communicate with her other half Bradley Dack, before her shock exit from I’m A Celebrity Get Me Out of Here on Monday.
Five years after she shot to overnight TV fame as a contestant on Love Island, going on to make the final of the ITV2 show, Olivia, 31, was on the line-up for the new series of I’m A Celebrity, with millions of viewers seeing her in action in Australia for the first time on Sunday night, as the show returned Down Under after a three year hiatus.
However, just over 12 hours after credits rolled on the series opener, it was announced that Olivia had been forced to quit I’m A Celebrity, after having ‘medical checks.’ While it was reported that a devastated Olivia was separate to go back into camp, she is now already back in the UK to be reunited with footballer fiancé Bradley, meaning the secret ‘signals’ she’d planned with the Blackburn Rovers star are now redundant.

She briefly hinted that they’d been planning something shortly after landing in Australia, when she told The Sun: “ I have got a really cute idea as well so I will save it for in the camp," she said.
"We have got a few little set ups."
With fans left wondering what happened to Olivia, I’m A Celeb hosts Ant and Dec briefly addressed her exit at the start of Monday’s show, with Dec citing ‘medical reasons’ as the catalyst for her departure, before Ant confirmed she’d okay no further part in the show and wished her well.
The presenters’ short explanation about Olivia came hours after a post appeared on her Instagram story. Made by the person who’s been looking after her social media accounts, It read: "To say Olivia is heartbroken would be an understatement, she's dreamed of doing I'm A Celeb for years, and was absolutely loving every second and throwing herself into jungle life feet first (just as we knew she would).
"However, for reasons before her control her journey has been cut short. Your support and kind words have meant the absolute world to her, now as much as always has. You will hear the truth from Olivia in due course and she will be back on your screens in the New Year."
