As the alarm rang out, word spread throughout the arrivals lounge that there was a blaze in the duty free store room.

An insider said: "There was a real moment of panic as the alarm rang out and rumours circulated that some of the goods had set on fire in one of the back rooms.

"It literally happened as Jamie Lynn was due to arrive in the country so it potentially meant her plane would have been stuck on the tarmac, or worse still, wouldn't have been able to land."

Luckily, it turns out it was all a false alarm and nothing had actually set alight.

With the drama over, Jamie Lynn landed safely and dashed through the airport to her waiting car.

"I had a great flight, it’s my first time in Australia," the Zoey 101 star told The Sun as she walked through the arrivals lounge.

When quizzed on what it was like to say goodbye to her family and whether she had spoken to her superstar sibling about doing the show, she remained silent.

She also pulled a face when asked about how she will handle the critters that await her in the jungle.

Jamie Lynn's arrival comes as Britney appeared to take a brutal swipe at her sister before her jungle debut.

Taking to Instagram, Britney shared a cryptic message just minutes after the news broke of Jamie Lynn's appearance on the ITV jungle show.

She posted a quote originally said by Ernest Hemingway, which read: "All things truly wicked start from innocence," and captioned it with a pink flower emoji.

The pop star did not elaborate any further, but her eagle-eyed fans began speculating that the quote was aimed at her sister.
