Bobby Norris was forced to leave Celebrity SAS: Who Dares Wins after a brutal challenge went wrong. 

The reality star, 38, was discharged from the Channel 4 show after sustaining an injury during a wrestling match.

The former TOWIE star handed in his armband in the penultimate episode after being advised to withdraw by a doctor after a wrestling match with Love Island star Ovie Soko, 33.

Bobby took on the basketball player in the wrestling match which saw players try to push their opponent outside a makeshift ring filled with mud. 

Not only was Bobby unsuccessful but the reality star hunk accidently ripped his opponents clothing and seemingly did more damage than that.

After the challenge, the former TOWIE star asked to see a medic immediately and was told he had sustained a serious injury. 

The doctor told him he was experiencing neck and spine spasms which were only likely to increase and advised the recruit to go home. 

He told Bobby: ‘Your mobility is going to get more restricted, and you’re going to be at risk of doing yourself more damage.’

TV presenter Cherry Healey, 43, was the first to leave during Sunday night’s episode and told former SAS soldier and presenter Jason Fox that her experience would be unforgettable. 

She said: ‘It’s been life-changing, but I know when the line is and that’s fine. I thought about this long and hard.’

Ovie also bowed out of the penultimate episode, leaving during the ‘on the run’ which saw the recruits split into two teams and tasked with finding their way to home.

The contestants were working against the clock as they tried to avoid a hunter force who were hot on their heels and made up of former soldiers.

During the challenge, after a heated exchange with fellow Love Islander Georgia Harrison, he handed his armband in.

The recruits were also given a chance to speak to their loved ones during Sunday night’s episode but Ovie chose not to because he was worried he would look weak in front of the presenters. 

Bobby’s departure comes after the show was thrown into crisis last week after another contestant was driven to throw in their armband.

A total of six stars left the show after just five episodes following the Channel 4 show’s grueling assault courses and challenging hikes.

Comedian Shazia Mirza, 46, exited the show after being left behind by her fellow recruits.

She trailed behind her fellow celebs from the get-go of the ‘be strong’ exercise, which prompted staff to hurl comments of tough love to get her motivated.

‘Stop f*****g loafing’, one director could be heard barking as Shazia evidently struggled with the brutal task.

And despite her desperate push to prove she had what it took to complete the course, chief instructor Billy Billingham put her out of her SAS misery and told her to hand over her armband.

Being withdrawn from the group, Shazia was in denial and told them she ‘didn’t want to accept it’.

She was faced with a brutal reality, as staff member Chris Oliver declared: ‘You don’t have a choice.’

The final instalment of Celebrity SAS: Who Dares Wins airs on Monday at 9pm on Channel 4.
