Vogue Williams has pulled out of ‘The Jump’.
The 31-year-old model had been one of the favourites to win the tough winter sports competition, but has had to exit the show after suffering a fall and severely injuring her knee while training for the ski cross on Wednesday (01.02.17).
A source told the Sun Online: "Vogue is absolutely devastated. She was so looking forward to taking part and has been training religiously.
"She’s one of the most competitive of the group and was in with a real chance of winning.
"But she fell very heavily during the ski cross training and really hurt her knee and on doctor’s orders she has had to pull out."
While Vogue is "really disappointed" not to be able to compete, she has already set her sights on appearing on the 2018 series of the show.
She tweeted: "Really disappointed to be out of The Jump. I’ve had the time of my life and if the show is back next year I’ll be in it to win it! @Channel4 (sic)"
And show host Davina McCall would definitely welcome her back to the next series.
She replied to Vogue’s tweet: "awwwww x big hugs x Vogue…. see u next year. Xxxxxx (sic)"
If Vogue does get to compete in 2018, Josie Gibson – one of this year’s contestants – has vowed to return to Austria to support her.
She tweeted: "Vogi!! We’re coming back next year with Our banners to egg you on!! not that you need it you compete machine!! (sic)"
Fellow contestant Spencer Matthews has been left "heartbroken" by his friend’s withdrawal from the show.
He tweeted: "Honestly heartbreaking… Amazing moments shared on this fun journey. A true friend.(sic)"
One of the stand-by contestants will now step up to replace Vogue when the competition begins on Sunday (05.02.17).
