Britney Spears is "disappointed" in sister Jamie Lynn for leaving ITV I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here!, it has been reported.

Jamie Lynn called time on her jungle journey on Wednesday when it was announced that she had left due to medical reasons. However, it's thought that Britney isn't too pleased with her little sister quitting the show.

It wasn't the first time that the 32-year-old threatened to leave the show as from day one she discussed wanting to go home. Throughout her time on the programme she broke down on multiple occasions saying she wanted to go home to see her children.

A source told MailOnline: "Britney is disappointed, but nothing surprises her anymore when it comes to her family's unprofessional behavior.

"Jamie Lynn knew damn well going into this that all she had to do was last 72 hours and she was going to get paid. So that is what she did. She never intended on staying any longer than this. This was just a quick paycheck for her – same as the Special Forces was."

The source added: "Unlike her sister, Jamie Lynn does not see anything through to the end." Jamie previously quit Fox's Special Forces: World's Toughest Test after just two days on the show, saying at the time that she left because she wanted to see her daughters Maddie, 15, and Ivey, five.

It has been suggested that Jamie Lynn left the show last minute before her daughters had to get on a 14 hour flight to meet her when she was voted out of the programme.

Friends and family of the stars have began to travel to Australia to meet them when they leave the camp. Wednesday night is said to have been the last chance for her to quit the series before it was too late and her daughters arrived in Brisbane to stay in Surfer's Paradise for two weeks before reuniting with their mum.

ITV said that she left I'm A Celebrity for "medical reasons", but the 32-year-old has had an hard time ever since she entered. On Wednesday, before she quit, she spoke to Sam Thompson and said: "I hate it here, this is where people go to have the worst days of their lives. Dear God, please help me to make it. I think I've got to leave, I think I've got to leave."

Celebrities who take part are said to only receive their pay cheque if they stay for more than 72 hours in the jungle. However, when she first said she wanted to leave, she hadn't been in the camp for long enough to be paid yet.

Addressing Jamie Lynn's exit from I'm A Celeb, the show's hosts Ant and Dec said: "She had such a turn around we thought she had come out the worst of it and she's gone. It's such a shame. But, hey, that's showbiz!"
