Rev Kate Bottley said she had taken a break from the cameras whilst her daughter sat her GCSEs.
She confirmed the reason she's not been on the latest series of the hit Channel 4 show on Twitter after a fan asked where she had been.
Hi, our daughter has her GCSES so we needed a break from the cameras https://t.co/yrFxXrCLct
