It was the end of the road for Rebecca Judd and sister Kate Twigley on the Amazing Race on Wednesday night.
Just days after eating ox tongue and bull’s penis, it was a fried tarantula in Cambodia which saw the girls come unstuck.
The mother-of-four, 40, had a public breakdown when she walked into a small hut, only to see the delicacy being prepared on a burner.
‘Nup, this is like my worst nightmare,’ Rebecca said, letting out a scream as she put both hands on her head.
An equally revolted Kate looked on at the hairy black spider, noting it was ‘stiffening up’ as it was cooked in oil.
‘Was it alive when they put him in?’ Bec asked, unable to look.
Kate explained it had soft legs which now looked crunchy.
‘I’m out. Bye,’ Bec said, picking-up her backpack and leaving the hut.
The two sisters chatted with each other, trying to work out what to do.
‘I think we take a time penalty,’ Bec said.

‘I can’t do it. I can’t even be in the vicinity [of the spiders],’ she added.
Kate seemed somewhat more eager to try, but couldn’t continue on without Bec.
‘We can’t split, we have to be together,’ Kate reminded her.
Kate admitted she knew Bec would ‘fall to pieces’ during the challenge.

‘There’s no way. There’s absolutely no way,’ Bec said, before screaming to producers they were taking a time penalty.
Despite arriving at the checkpoint in third place, the sisters were forced to wait 60 minutes which saw them check in last and become eliminated from the competition.
Host Beau Ryan told the sisters the bad news.
Fried tarantula is a delicacy in Cambodia, but Bec was having none of it. The former model was insistent the team would take a time penalty over doing the challenge
‘It was a risk taking a time penalty but it has been such an incredible adventure, travelling the world and seeing all these amazing places,’ Bec said.
The WAG then mentioned her charity, Impatient Advocacy, which is a foundation started by her late friend Nicole Cooper.
‘Racing for our dear friend Nicole. She was a fierce patient advocate,’ Bec said, in a touching tribute.
‘It has been an honour and a privilege to share her story and to share the work that continues after she has gone.’
‘There’s no way. There’s absolutely no way,’ Bec said, before screaming to producers they were taking a time penalty. Bec admitted she had a phobia of large spiders. Pictured with Kate
