LOVE Island host Maya Jama has revealed a previous hosting job left her in a wheelchair after she fell off a kerb.
Maya still plagued by the injury in Cyprus, told Pretty Little Thing’s Behind Closed Doors podcast: “I went to Ayia Napa when I was 17 to host Charlie Sloth's show Fire In The Booth.
“But the day before the actual beach party thing we were supposed to be hosting, I ended up slipping on a bit of mashed-up kerb.
“The bottom of my foot was hanging off.
“I had to be in hospital for two days and ended up in a wheelchair for the rest of the time.
“I ripped a nerve and couldn’t feel it."

She added: “I was getting carried into the ambulance like ‘wahey…’ not knowing that I might not be able to bend my f*****g toes.
“The big one doesn’t bend… it can bend but it doesn’t tuck.
“I will never forget that trip.”
That trip? The jokes just write themselves.
