Snoochie Shy was the first star to be eliminated from Celebrity MasterChef when the new series began on the BBC on Tuesday night.
The 32-year-old DJ and radio presenter dropped out of the early rounds after failing to impress judges Gregg Wallace and John Torode with her dishes.
The first five celebrities to don aprons this week were This Morning’s Craig Doyle, Geordie Shore’s Charlotte Crosby, radio presenter Edith Bowman, Steps pop star Ian ‘H’ Watkins and Snoochie.
The series kicks off with four three-episode Heat Weeks designed to test celebrities’ cooking skills.
As she said goodbye, she said, “It’s sad to go home, but I know a lot of disasters have happened in that kitchen, so I knew I was leaving. I’m going home, have a glass of wine and get some rest!”

In the first episode of Heat, five new celebrities took on the famous “Under The Cloche” challenge: creating a dish from scratch that shows what they can do.
A two-course dinner menu was then served.
Snoochie’s Cloche ingredient was aubergine and she made a curry, but the judges weren’t impressed with the presentation.
For her dinner menu, she cooked another curry: this time a Thai red prawn curry and then a peach crumble for dessert.
John and Gregg were not impressed that she cooked another curry as they could not see what her other skills were.
They also said their crumble was too hard and the ratio of fruit to topping wasn’t good enough.
She had previously said of her reasons for entering the show: ‘I mean it’s an absolutely iconic show and I’ve always watched it!
‘I came in to try and learn new tips and tricks in the hopes that I could be more of a chef in the kitchen without feeling like I was poisoning my friends.’
Fans will see a dazzling line-up of stars from the worlds of film and theatre, sport and the arts, all competing in the race to lift the 2024 trophy.

Edith impressed with an apple strudel, but unfortunately overcooked the fish in the next round. However, she managed to get through.
Craig made sweetbreads, then haddock and an Irish pudding, and the judges were amazed by his culinary talent.
Ian was the least
Charlotte was also very impressive in the kitchen and made a fried pigeon with mash and asparagus.
Then, in the quarterfinals, they will face some very significant criticism from the returning champions and finalists.
After the knockout stages, the eight successful celebrities will face what the semi-final and final week has in store for them.
This will include the new round of pizza, as well as a task that will require them to stay on track while helping to create an opulent dining experience on the British Pullman train.
Finally, the successful celebrities will face a long-awaited chef’s table and an incredibly complicated task: cooking something they don’t like to eat.
