Some breast milk with your tea?

WE'VE long been told that breast is best. Generally though, that advice is meant to apply to babies … not a cup of tea.

Unless, it seems, you're a Klass. Singer and model Myleene has revealed that her father used to enjoy his tea with a dash of breast milk - and that she has continued the family tradition.

Miss Klass, who has two daughters aged five and two, said she had offered her own milk to family and friends.

Her inspiration was her father Oscar, a senior officer in the Royal Navy, who used his wife's breast milk to make his afternoon brew.

'Come on, it's normal,' she said. 'I made everyone try mine. It tastes just like those probiotic yoghurt drinks. Sweet - not as sweet as condensed milk.

'I grew up knowing that he did that so it's not weird to me. I sound like a happy-clappy hippy. Oh well, now you know. We're that kind of family.'

The classically trained musician, 35, made the comments in an interview about her role in charity campaign The Big IF London, which is calling for G8 leaders to tackle world hunger.

Miss Klass, who is also a TV presenter, became involved through her work with Save The Children.

She said that if she was on 'speed dial' to David Cameron, she would be calling him every day to ask for help.

Perhaps she could also ask him around for a cuppa?
