'Caitlin walked over the bridge, exclaimed to James ‘"it’s you!". They embraced, both were welling up.

But much to the shock of viewers at home she did not attend the bridge reunion where so many stars are greeted by their loved ones upon their exit from the jungle.
The double elimination on Friday saw Caitlyn and Nadine Coyle, 34, as the seventh and eights stars to leave.
After Ant and Dec announced the news Caitlyn broke down in tears and declared she 'missed my family terribly' following almost three weeks in the jungle -making it all the more devastating that not one member of the famous brood came to greet her.

Joining the Geordie duo in the studio, Caitlyn broke down in tears as she was overcome with emotion, telling them that 'it was tough'.
Speaking to the pair, she said: 'It was tough. I came here to test myself, obviously I did this show 16 years ago, turned 70 and thought what a challenge. I knew it wasn't going to be easy.'
Ant and Dec passed her a tissue as she struggled to hold back the tears as things became too much for the star.
Explaining how difficult the beginning was, she choked: 'The first night, I didn't think I'd make it to next night.'

Gushing about her campmates, Caitlyn said: ‘over the last three weeks, I've met some of the greatest people.
'There wasn't one person who was causing any trouble... I can't believe I made it all the way to three weeks and so it was great. I hate to leave them behind but I'm ready to get out.’
Comparing her time to when she took part in the show, as Bruce, 16 years ago, Caitlyn revealed that this time round was tougher as she was in the jungle 'longer'.

She continued: 'I'm pulled every direction ... but it'll be great. I made sure after this I didn't schedule anything until January so I've got the rest of the month off and it was quite an experience to go through.
'Am I glad it's over? Yeah. I've had enough.'
Finally when asked by the presenters who she'd like to win, Caitlyn revealed that she'd like to see Roman Kemp crowned King of the Jungle.

'When i realised nobody came to greet Caitlyn Jenner on the other end of the bridge i started crying literally NO ONE TALK TO ME FOR 5 TO 7 DAYS,' wrote a fourth watcher.
So sad: While Nadine greeted by her sister, Caitlyn didn't have anyone to give her a welcoming hug after weeks away from home
'Can't stop thinking about Caitlyn Jenner crying and then none of her family being there to greet her. no one speak to me,' shared a fifth stunned fan.

And in a recent instalment of I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! Caitlyn Jenner was snubbed once again by Kendall and Kylie, as they failed to send a note to their father, while busy living it up on separate jaunts with friends.
While her fellow celebs received messages from their children and partners, Caitlyn received a letter from an unnamed person, believed to be Sophia Hutchins, which told the Olympian of her dogs pining after her.

As campmates gathered to hear their letters from home, Jacqueline Jossa read out the note for Caitlyn, which was presumably from her partner Sophia Hutchins.
'You are doing such an amazing job in the jungle. Show these Brits that American Olympian endurance - smiley face, winky face...
'The dogs and I miss you so much, we decorated the house but Baxter tore the lights off the trees already so it's waiting for you to fix it.'
Later on, while in the Bush Telegraph, Caitlyn tearfully admitted: 'I think in some ways, although it's really emotional, it does lift the morale and makes you appreciate them so much more when you get out.'
I'm A Celebrity continues Saturday at 9.20pm on ITV.
