“Any accusations that Spencer and Heidi were harmed are untrue,” says the source. “There was no danger, no life-threatening situations — in fact, they were actually protected from the elements, unlike the other contestants.”

News of Heidi’s condition was first made public by Pratt’s sister, Stephanie, who wrote about the incident on Twitter.

Among the claims, she tweeted, “Heidi was rushed to the hospital and has an IV in her arm after being locked in a dark room for 3 days w no food or water.”

While the conditions on the reality survival show sound extreme, they are believed to be fabricated.

The pair is said to have spent about 14 hours in the show’s isolated “Lost Chamber,” where rations were provided.

Following their “torture,” Speidi reportedly quit the series last Monday and checked into a hotel for three days until returning to the campgrounds to beg their cast mates to allow them back on the show.

ITV Studios, which produces the series, confirms there has been no wrong doing to the couple.

“ITV has been producing this format around the world for many years and the health of the celebrity participants are of the utmost importance,” the statement read. “A medic and a doctor are present at the location at all times for all participants. All allegations of the celebrities being deprived of food and water are completely untrue.”
