Former England footballer Jill Scott needed the help of a jungle medic after she got a cockroach stuck in her ear on Thursday's episode of I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! The 35-year-old, who was part of the women's Euro 2022-winning team, came a cropper with the creepy-crawly during the ITV show's Unlucky Dip challenge.
The sporting star told hosts Ant and Dec: "I've got a cockroach stuck in my ear." A man in a mask brandishing a flashlight then appeared to extract the six-legged invader.
"Come to the jungle they said, it will be fun," added Scott, while Ant promptly reminded her how, 11 years before, Olympic gold medallist Fatima Whitbread famously got the very same species of insect wedged up her nose after wearing a plastic helmet full of critters. "Jill, that was bigger than the one Fatima Whitbread had up her nose," he said as the cockroach emerged from Scott's ear canal.
