Ross Kemp reveals horrifying swollen face after wasp attack

TV star Ross Kemp has warned his fans against the dangers of wasps after being stung by three to four of them.

Posting videos on Twitter, Ross shared his new look with his followers, showing a swollen top lip after he claims to have been stung in the "nasal and lip area".

Ross said he encountered the wasps after "opening up a loft space without their permission."

The former Eastenders hardman said: "I look like Mick Jagger, don't I? Well that is what happens if you get stung by about three or four wasps in the nasal and lip area.

"Be careful with those critters, don't go upsetting them by opening up a loft space without asking their permission.

In a second video shared to his feed, the documentary presenter thanked NHS workers for their help.

Mumbling out his words due to the swelling, he said: "I have been seen by our fantastic NHS. A very cool doctor's just given me hydrocortisone, hopefully that's gonna bring it down a bit

The TV hardman appeared to be in good spirits as he attempted to sing "I can't get no satisfaction", before admitting: "It hurts a bit."

Cracking a smile in the video, he showed just how swollen his top lip was, and looked almost unrecognisable.
