Janice Dickinson ahead of her stint on I'm A Celebrity: South Africa An ITV spokesperson has spoken out following reports that former supermodel Janice Dickinson is taking legal action over her appearance on the all-star season of I’m A Celebrity, Get Me Out Of Here! . Janice filmed her appearance on I’m A Celebrity: South Africa in the autumn of 2022, and according to The Mirror , has alleged that she suffered a late-night fall in the dark that left her with “permanent facial deformities and nerve damage”. Per The Mirror’s report, the former America’s Next Top Model judge is claiming she was under the influence of sleeping medication given to her by an ITV medic when she tripped in the dark and fell, injuring her face. She is said to be seeking £700,000 in compensation. A spokesperson for ITV Studios told the tabloid : “Janice Dickinson’s letter of claim has been received and reviewed. I’m A Celebrity operates a high level of safety protocols and the health, safety and welfare of all of our contributors are our number one priority. “We don’t recognise this version of events. However, we looked after Janice at the time, paid her medical expenses, flew her home to LA, and the I’m A Celebrity team were in regular contact with Janice and her representatives on an ongoing basis after she returned home to America until after the programme aired seven months later.” Janice pictured with her I'm A Celebrity: South Africa campmates in 2022 Janice Dickinson first competed on I’m A Celebrity in 2007, finishing in second place behind pantomime star Christopher Biggins , and later returned for the American version of the show. Some 15 years after her first jungle stint, she returned to the franchise for the inaugural all-stars season, but withdrew around halfway through following her accident.
