Jane Moore left the Loose Women panel horrified after revealing the result of a leech bite from her time in the I’m A Celebrity jungle.

The journalist, 62, showed off the result of her bloody injury on Monday in her first appearance on the daytime show since jetting off Down Under.

The presenter was detailing her time on the ITV reality show to her fellow panellists Judy Love, Linda Robson and Frankie Bridge when she shared a gruesome tale.

Jane explained that one of the worst things she experienced while on the reality show was waking up to find a leech in her bra that left her with a nasty injury.

She told them: ‘So I woke up one morning and I thought “what the hell is that” and I reached inside my bra – and I don’t know whether you’ve ever seen a leech in its natural state, but it’s tiny’.

Jane then explained alongside a clip of her showing off the bite marks to her camp mates, revealing she could see a wound from the pest.

She continued: ‘There’s the fang marks, that’s where it went in – tiny when it goes in but then I took off my bra’, and Jane showed off her bloodied bra as the audience and presenters gasped in shock.

Judy was so surprised that she asked Jane if that was really blood, to which the journalist confirmed that it was her blood.

She added that by the time she had found it, it had grown to a huge size.

‘By the time I found it, it was this big fat – it was like that’ as she held up a highlighter from the table in front of her.

She added: ‘I literally threw it on the fire straight away. Anyway, I think my left breast was a lot smaller than my right for the whole time I was in the jungle.’

Judy then jumped in and cheekily said: ‘I know it’s daytime TV but that leech knew exactly the best spot to be,’ as the audience erupted in laughter.

And that was not the only unpleasant experience Jane suffered in the jungle.

After she became the first campmate to be booted off the show last month, the star confessed it was one of the most ‘physically and mentally challenging’ things she had ever done.

Reflecting on her time in the jungle, Jane opened up in her column for The Sun earlier this month, writing: ‘Given that less than 300 people have been invited to take part since the show started in 2002, I felt privileged to be there.

‘No one else understands how physically and mentally challenging it is, nor the intensity of the highs and lows.’

She continued: ‘So the bond you share is unique and I know I will remain in touch with all of my 2024 campmates forever.’

It comes after the presenter revealed that people should underestimate Coleen Rooney ‘at their peril’ as she gave her thoughts on her I’m A Celebrity campmates.

Speaking about living with Coleen, Jane said: ‘She’s quiet, she’s quite reserved, but underestimate her at your peril. She’s the absolute hub of the Rooney household. She runs it like a well-oiled machine.

‘I think elements of Col – as I now call her, because we’re on that level – that the public have seen have been quite cartoonish. You know, Wagatha Christie, footballer’s wife, whatever.

‘I think for her to go into something and show herself and how strong she is and how lovely she is… I was really happy to see that.’

Jane was embroiled in a row over ‘ageism’ and ‘sexism’ in the jungle after she was tasked with the chore of doing the camp’s washing up and accused former boxing champion, Barry McGuigan, and the McFly frontman, Danny Jones, of being ageist and sexist for giving her the role because she was an older woman.

Upon her exit she told hosts Ant and Dec: ‘I had three jobs before then, I worked like a dog and then they gave me the washing up so I wasn’t pleased about that. I did a lot down there but hard work doesn’t pay off as I’m the first one out, people don’t notice hard work’.

Jane Moore out of the jungle and says ‘I worked like a dog!’

In a warning to the remaining campmates, she said: ‘The more people get voted off, it will get apparent who isn’t doing that much.

‘I would like to see the quiet hard workers win, there’s a lot of showmen in there. I want Coleen [Rooney] or Melvin [Odoom] to win, they’re not flamboyant.’

Speaking about her time in the jungle she said: ‘I have lived it and it’s just such a weird and magical experience. People always say it’s the best experience of your life, wouldn’t say that with the rain. Never been so soaked in my life, constantly’.

‘At least there’s no more washing up, I’m never washing up again. I enjoyed getting to know the others and ask them questions. We’ve all got each other’s back.

‘Them getting to know me was great too, because I’m a journalist they were initially like, “hang on what’s this going to be like?”‘.

‘A lot of them said they talked about things with me they haven’t for years and they felt better for it.’
