JUNGLE beauty Myleene Klass last night told how she had to call in urgent medical help to get rid of two maggots that set up camp in her ear.
The I’m A Celebrity babe said the creepy-crawlies snuck into her lughole in Australia.
They were still there a week after she left the jungle and horrified Myleene, 28, said a doctor had to pluck the slimy critters from deep inside her inner ear with a syringe.
The ex-Hear’Say singer – now safely back in London – relived her nightmare at yesterday’s Women In Film and Television Awards in London.
Myleene went to a doctor after complaining of hearing problems.
She said: “He syringed one maggot out and said: ‘Oh, he’s got a brother’ as the second one emerged.”
She believes the maggots crawled into her ear during her final Scare-e-oke Bushtucker Trial.
She said: “Apparently this is the first time this has happened. I’m quite proud about it.” She went into the jungle to overcome her fear of spiders and other creepy-crawlies.
