Hosts Ant McPartin and Declan Donnelly also popped into camp to let the stars know Britney Spears' little sister Jamie Lynn would be taking on the next Bushtucker Trial.

Jamie Lynn was voted to take on the Climb of Cruelty Bushtucker Trial during Tuesday's episode of I'm A Celebrity, amid fears the 32-year-old American could quit the ITV series and walk away from the star-studded camp due to missing her two young children back home in the States.

Earlier in the episode, Jamie Lynn confided in campmates Sam and former EastEnders actress Danielle Harold and admitted to feeling the pressure. She told her co-stars: "I don’t know how I’m so emotionally weak." Trying to perk her campmate up, Danielle told the mum-of-two: "You’re so strong. This is tough babe, tough. So tough. It’s not easy."

Jamie Lynn didn't seem to take an comfort from Danielle's words, replying: "Why am I crying so much? Josie [Gibson} has a baby at home…" Former Made In Chelsea star Sam then tried to console an upset Jamie Lynn, telling her: "It’s important to remember you’ve come from a whole different continent, you don’t know anyone here, it’s hard. It’s real hard."

Danielle added: "Look at the s*** you’ve been through in your life, right? This, a little bit of rain in the jungle, nothing." Jamie Lynn then argued: "But at least all that s*** I could go home to my babies every night, you know? That’s it, that’s all I need in life. It feels a little bit overwhelming. They’re not even close. I’ve got to just do it. I don’t know why I’m being such a baby."
