In a shocking turn of events, the 32-year-old star was rushed for emergency medical treatment, with close friends describing her being in 'absolute agony'. The BBC has officially confirmed her departure from the show, leaving fans and fellow contestants reeling.
A close friend of the reality TV personality disclosed the severity of the situation to The Mirror, stating, "She has been in absolute agony. It's been a really tough time for her and she's been so poorly." The exact nature of her condition remains undisclosed, shrouding her exit in mystery and concern.
Production Thrown Into Chaos
The illness is understood to have unfolded during the high-pressure filming of the show's upcoming series at a remote castle in the Scottish Highlands. The sudden medical emergency undoubtedly sent production into chaos, requiring immediate medical intervention and altering the course of the game.
Charlotte's exit marks one of the most unexpected and worrying departures in the show's history, moving the drama from a battle of wits around the roundtable to a real-life health crisis.
