Myleene said her daughter 'stumbled' into the kitchen, "holding her throat", while she was doing the washing up 'LONGEST FIVE MINUTES' Myleene Klass issues warning to others after she rescued her baby girl who choked on £1 decoration Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) LOOSE Women star Myleene Klass has opened up about the moment her daughter, Hero, turned blue and collapsed after choking. Speaking on the We're Not Getting Any Younger podcast this week, the 47-year-old presenter said the horrific incident left her 'hysterical.'

"She choked on one of those dayglo stars you stick on the ceiling,' the ex Hear'Say star recalled. She credits her first aid training with saving her daughter's life - and now refuses to keep the decorations, sold for as little as £2 a pack, anywhere in the house. Asked whether the star had fallen from the ceiling, Myleene clarified: 'She found it. She was so little, she couldn't even speak.' "Not just because she was choking, she physically couldn't communicate what had happened.' Describing the moment she realised something was wrong, Myleene said her daughter 'stumbled' into the kitchen, "holding her throat", while she was doing the washing up. "Her face had gone blue and then she just dropped to the floor. It was the longest five minutes of my life," she explained. When someone is choking, it means that the oxygen supply to the lungs is obstructed, the first aiders explained. This in turn cuts off the supply of oxygen to the brain. The lack of oxygen to the brain has widespread ramifications for the rest of the body, which become more serious with every minute. Children First Aid: Choking If your child doesn't receive oxygen to their brain for one to four minutes, they'll lose consciousness, according to Headway, a brain injury charity. After three minutes, the neurons in their brain will get damaged. Permanent brain damage becomes much more likely after four minutes of your tot not being able to breathe. After 10 minutes, a child could slip into a coma and lasting brain damage becomes almost inevitable if their brain is still alive. Survival becomes almost impossible after 15 minutes. This is why it's imperative that parents learn choking first aid. 6 Myleene has first aid training Credit: stjohn_ambulance/Instagram 6 Thanks to her training, the pop star was able to save both her daughters lives Credit: stjohn_ambulance/Instagram Using her first aid knowlegde, Myleene sprung into action. 'I turned her upside down, well, not literally, but she was small enough that I could lay her across my forearm," she said. "I gave her a firm back blow and eventually she vomited it up,' she added. "Then she just toddled off as if nothing had happened. I was left a complete wreck.' Your sign to get trained Myleene's first aid training also helped her save her other daughter, Ava, during a choking incident when she was a tween. Both "terrfiying" experiences drove her to earn a more professional qualification with St John Ambulance, she said. In a post she shared on Instagram in June of herself doing the training and wearing the first aid uniform, she wrote: "The only thing worse would have been not knowing what to do. "I had done first aid, but now I wanted to learn it to a more sort of professional level," she explained on the podast. "This might be your sign to get first aid trained." she added. 6 6 The five warning signs your child might be choking According to the NHS, choking is common in young children, especially during play or mealtimes. This is because they often explore objects by putting them in their mouths. Parents are advised to keep small items out of reach, cut food into small pieces, and familiarise themselves with first aid techniques.

Loose Women's Katie Piper reveals she considered killing evil ex-boyfriend after acid attack in new prison documentary
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) LOOSE Women star Katie Piper has revealed she considered murdering her ex-boyfriend and attacker after he raped, stabbed and arranged an acid attack on her. The TV presenter was left with life-threatening injuries after the horrifying string of violent attacks in 2008, which saw David Lynch order a friend to throw sulphuric acid at her face. Sign up for the Entertainment newsletter Sign up 3 Katie has admitted she considered killing her ex after the attack Credit: Splash 3 Katie travels to Louisiana in her new UKTV documentary series about prison Credit: U&W Katie has long been open about her fears of Lynch, 48, wanting to harm or even attempt to kill her again on his release, but she's now admitted she's also had to work through thoughts of killing Lynch. Sitting down with a female inmate in her new series Locked Up In Louisiana, who was put behind bars for murdering her husband in what she claims was self-defence against long term domestic violence, Katie admitted: 'I was beaten and raped, and then a couple of days later I had acid thrown in my face. "I had that moment where I felt like he was beating me, he was going to kill me. 'I always thought if someone was going to kill me, I would defend myself, but what happened was I froze out of fear and I didn't do anything to him and a couple of days later, somebody threw the acid at me. 'I spent a lot of time in hospital, it was very different from prison, but I spent a lot of time isolated and in bed thinking that I should've killed him.' The former model has undergone hundreds of surgeries to repair her face and eyesight following the attack, which took place when she was 24 years old. This year, she underwent a procedure to give her an 'artificial eye' to protect her damaged left eye. Katie's criminal ex, who organised an acid attack on her, could face release in the coming weeks after he was granted a parole hearing next month to discuss moving him to an open prison. Lynch, 48, was put behind bars for life with a minimum sentence of 16 years in 2009 for instructing Stefan Sylvestre to throw sulphuric acid at Katie days after raping and stabbing her in a hotel room. Lynch will appear before the parole board on June 3 and 4 to ask to be moved to a facility with greater freedom, which is a step closer to his release, which is currently due in two years. Katie Piper shares emotional health update after eye surgery as she says she's finally 'reached the end of the road' Katie travels to New Orleans for her new series on U&W, in which the Loose Women panellist sits down with female inmates accused of murder to discuss what pushes people to commit violent crimes. Among them is Tonica Williams, 45, who was charged with second degree murder for killing her husband, and is facing a mandatory life sentence for a crime she claims was self-defence. In the series, she reveals the relationship between her and her late ex-husband had long been abusive, having even 'sent him to jail' on domestic violence charges before the altercation that killed him. Reflecting on Tonica's decision to kill her husband, Katie added: 'I'd never experienced trauma or abuse until I was attacked, but that's not the case for these women behind bars. 'Tonica first saw somebody shot and a dead body at the age of six, and I can't comprehend what that must have been like and what that does to you. 'Lots of the women in this film were in a situation of kill or be killed, obviously that isn't a path that I took but maybe if my childhood had been different, who knows?' Katie Piper: Locked Up In Louisiana airs on U&W from April 27.
