Controversial I'm a Celebrity contestant Lady Colin Campbell has left the jungle on medical grounds. However, her son Dima Ziadie has reassured fans that the colourful 66-year-old aristocrat is fine. He tweeted: "I'm very sad to announce that, yes my mum @LadyColinCampb is out. She is fine. Dima xx."

Producers ITV said that as a result of her departure the latest viewer vote has been cancelled and anyone who had voted in it could get a refund.

The colourful aristocrat clashed with some of her jungle companions

A statement from ITV said: "During her time in the jungle, Lady C locked horns with many of her fellow campmates.

"It's fair to say she'll be missed by Kieron Dyer in particular though, whom she struck up a strong bond with. Only yesterday the pair were laughing and chatting about sport, and how Lady C was a big fan of Cristiano Ronaldo. And, in particular, his body!

"She's certainly delivered some jungle drama over the last few weeks. For now though, farewell Lady C."

She will be most missed by footballer Kieron Dyer

Quizzed by Kieron, a former footballer, on which sportsmen she found attractive, Lady C replied: "I know who Cristiano Ronaldo is and he is a gorgeous looking guy".

When he wanted to know more about her crush, she cut him off by saying: "He’s a good looking guy. He's too young for me, or to put it another way, he's not too young for me, I'm too old for him."

Lady Colin takes her unusual name from her 1974 marriage to Lord Colin Ivar Campbell – before their union she was Georgia Arianna Ziadie. The couple divorced after 14 months and Lady C went on to adopt two boys by herself in 1993.

She is known as biographer of the royal family, whose 1992 book Diana in Private made the New York Times Bestseller List.
