Finally some light shed on why Stephen Baldwin left the jungle on NBC’s I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here
Apparently, some of the bugs that bit them laid eggs under his skin, which, is just as gross as it sounds!
There were days of speculation over his departure, many thinking it had to do with the news his home was being foreclosed on, but that didn’t end up being the case.
In his first interview with blogtalkradio since leaving the show, Stephen Baldwin had this to say;
“I suffered in the first eight days of production, while in the jungle, over 125 insect bites on my body… I had about thirty on my left leg… 25 or 30 on each arm, kind of all over and two of them, much to my surprise, became quite lumpy initially.
“Within about 72 hours they were these half dollar-sized lumps under my skin that were probably about an inch thick and were situations where they just weren’t a reaction that were the same as the others – 123 so to speak.
“I did get to take some time with the medic who explained that in his opinion at that point he didn’t think that it was the ‘implantation of insect larvae into my flesh’, but that – oh gosh – that’s what it could be… So they tested these things and sure enough, Stevie B was ‘pregnant.'”
The jungle is nasty! No celebs are going to be signing up for the second season of this show!!
