It's alleged by The Sun that he will most likely still receive payment for his stint on the show.

Due to the fact that the isolation bubble was disturbed due to a medical emergency, it's assumed that he will maintain his eye-watering fee for partaking in the survival reality show.

It's alleged that Richard was to make a whopping £200,000 from his time in Gwrcyh Castle, Wales.

Celebrities' individual rates depend on how well known the star is, but it can vary between £30,000 and £500,000 – with Madeley being at the higher end of the fees this year.
