The curse of The Jump has struck yet again, as Heather Mills becomes the latest celebrity to have to abandon the show due to injury.
The entrepreneur has damaged a ligament in her knee and gained a thumb injury during a fall in ski cross training.
She has therefore decided to withdraw from the show, which is airing live on Channel 4 tonight.
Mills joined the show as an emergency replacement after a number of stars were forced to quit due to injury, including Beth Tweddle and Rebecca Adlington.
This year has marked her second stint on the show, after she also competed last year.
"I am overjoyed to be asked back by Channel 4 to join the competitors on The Jump, as I always felt it was unfinished business," she said at the time. "I know I can do much better.
