NOTTS golden girl Rebecca Adlington has become the target of widespread speculation.

Mansfield’s Olympic swimming champion has been ruled out of a number of trials on the popular reality TV show I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here based on medical grounds.

The Daily Mail and Daily Mirror have both now reported that Adlington's family want the producers of the ITV show to tell the public why she has been ruled out to stop the speculation.

The athlete's aunt Sonia Adlington revealed that all the family are aware of what is wrong with Rebecca, but her uncle Tony added: "'We have been sworn to secrecy.

"Becky wants the public to know why she is being excused.

“We wish the producers would say the reason."

Sonia also revealed that despite 24-year-old Rebecca's medical issue having ruled her out of three Bushtucker Trials so far, and the athlete is desperate to pull her weight and take part in the challenges.

She said: "It's not Becky's choice.

“She wants to do the challenges - even eating grubs - but she is not allowed to do some of them on doctor's orders."

The nature of Rebecca's medical issue is still shrouded in secrecy, but Sonia added that it is a condition that she has suffered from through years of swimming.

Rebecca's fiancé Harry Needs has also ruled out pregnancy.

He said: “I can say hand on heart, she’s not.
