The Agent Cody Banks star departed the South African jungle in emotional scenes on Sunday night’s episode, after admitting he felt guilt over his relationship with wife Paige Price and their three-year-old son, Mauz Mosley.
‘My current situation with my wife and son is… I’m guilty of not noticing what they do for me,’ he told his campmates during the episode.
‘Hearing my wife say that my son is sad that I don’t play trucks with him, I realise I’ve been home so many days, and when I’m home I’m not present. And I’m so ready to be present.’

His exit comes shortly after Frankie admitted he’s set for life because he was able to retire as a teenager from his Malcolm In The Middle earnings, and he still receives residual checks to this day from foreign reruns.
Last week, the former actor told his fellow campmates he was worth a staggering $US40million ($61M AUD) by the time he was 19.
According to The Daily Telegraph, by the end of the show’s run, Muniz was reportedly earning approximately AUD$230,000 per episode, without adjusting for inflation.
The star notably put his Hollywood career aside to focus on race car driving, and also was briefly a drummer for a band called You Hang Up from 2012 until 2014.
