PR queen Roxy Jacenko has confessed she has an “awkward medical condition”.

On Friday, the Aussie business woman took to Instagram to admit she’s suffering from head lice.

In the snap, the Sweaty Betty PR founder sat in a chair while a nurse treated her hair by removing the insects.

In her post, the mum-of-two revealed that she had caught “nits” from one of her children.

“Oh the joy of kids,’ she wrote. “[Child] comes home catches nits – and then I get it.”

“Cue the big guns,” referring to the nurse treating her scalp.

The news comes as the PR mogul sparked controversy after revealing she allowed her 11-year-old daughter, Pixie, to get an eyelash lift.

Jacenko recently shared a video reel of Pixie going to get her lashes done.

In the caption for the clip, she wrote: “Red hair means no lashes – until now. Thanks @fancy.lash for my lash lift and tint.”

The video caused a stir, with some fans feeling that Pixie was too young for the treatment.

“She is too young for this. What’s next, Botox and lip fillers?” one person wrote.

“Really? Too young for this,” another wrote. “EYE ROLL … Does her mother have any brains ??”

“You’re using your platform to teach young girls to adhere to beauty standards?! Not buying your products ever,” a third wrote.

Others were quick to jump to defend Jacenko and her daughter, pointing out that it’s a safe procedure.

“It’s a lash lift and tint … are people serious?” one person wrote.

“I was getting this done at her age. Some people need to get a life!” another said.

“The amount of adults that are here arguing on a child’s account is gross! You do what makes you happy Pixie!” a third commented.
