TV star Cora Schumacher is leaving the RTL show “I’m a Star – Get Me Out of Here!”.

The 47-year-old is leaving at her own request, the station announced in the evening.

The ex-wife of Ralf Schumacher (48), the former Formula 1 driver, was also there in the program broadcast that evening.

Because of a sports broadcast, the jungle camp program only lasted 40 minutes on Sunday.

The candidate's exit was therefore no longer announced later.

According to the RTL announcement, viewers should find out more on Monday.

Twelve candidates are fighting for the jungle crown this year.

With Cora Schumacher out, there are now eleven.
