Karl Burnett has left Celebrity Treasure Island to look after his mental health.
It was a rough start for the actor, best known as Nick from Shortland Street, who didn't make any secrets about missing his four-month-old son.
Now, he's told his fellow Kahu teammates he has to leave the team, and the show, to focus on his mental health.
"I'm just not coping mentally, so I need to look after myself," he said.
Burnett had a rocky start on the show, with his team forgetting about him and leaving him tied up, as well as a standoff with weatherman Sam Wallace over sleeping arrangements.
