Ant backs Olivia Attwood's return to I'm A Celebrity

Olivia Attwood could return to I'm A Celebrity. . . Get Me Out Of Here! after Ant McPartlin said he would suggest to producers that they bring her back to the hit ITV reality show.

The former Love Island star, 31, left the jungle last week after just 48 hours inside the camp when she was discovered to be dangerously anaemic. She has since spoken about her dismay at leaving the show, and last night Ant and co-presenter Dec Donnelly agreed that it would be a good idea to give her another opportunity in next year's show.

The Sun says that during their daily live stream for fans after the main show finishes, the presenting duo enjoy encouraged fans to send in their ideas for the show. One viewer suggested that Olivia should make a return to give the show "a feisty female", and Ant responded: "That's not a bad idea! I'm going to put that to the powers that be at the end of this show and hopefully I'll have an answer sometime tomorrow."

Olivia was withdrawn from the jungle after blood tests showed that she was dangerously anaemic with low sodium and potassium levels. She was taken from the camp and moved to a nearby A&E unit. She is now back in the UK at the home she shares with her footballer fiancé, Bradley Dack, 28.

Olivia said on ITV's This Morning, where she talked about her experience on the show, that she was desperate to get back to the camp. She said: "I felt well, I didn't feel unwell — there was nothing. I felt healthy. I was loving it. I was even more confused. It was all really strange."
