Schapelle kept things casual in a cropped navy top and a pair of matching underwear as she executed a few deep stretches from her balcony.      

Media reports suggest Corby left SAS Australia after the other contestants failed to warm to her.   

‘Some of the more high-profile celebs were fuming,’ an inside source told Woman’s Day, claiming many of the stars didn’t want to ‘associate with her’.

It has also been alleged that Sydney PR queen Roxy Jacenko was particularly unhappy the former Bali inmate was taking part.

‘When [Roxy] learnt Schapelle was going on the series, she was not impressed,’ New Idea has claimed.

Their mystery source added: ‘Roxy wanted to be the alpha female, but Schapelle immediately stole her thunder.’    

Ex rugby player and Bachelor Star Nick ‘Honey Badger’ Cummins and cricket WAG Candice Warner will all feature on the show alongside PR Queen Roxy.  

While some Aussies may find hotel quarantine unbearable, Corby is used to being detained after spending almost ten years behind bars in Indonesia.
