Jackie ‘O’ Henderson has made a shock bathroom confession.

The radio queen, 50, admitted on Friday’s The Kyle and Jackie O Show that she always takes her mobile phone with her when she goes to the toilet.

‘There’s no better place to hang out than the bathroom, because no one can come join you or talk to you,’ Jackie told her co-host Kyle Sandilands.

‘You get that true alone time. Peace and quiet for once! I just sit there on my phone for ten minutes, locked in a bathroom.’

Jackie added she never makes a bathroom trip without her mobile phone in her hand.

‘I can’t go to the toilet without my phone. It’s like I go, “Oh I can’t sit here doing nothing”,’ she quipped.

Taking your phone to the toilet may keep you entertained while you do your business, but last month Mail+ revealed it is not always safe to do so.

It was reported that this common habit can turn your device into a haven for dangerous microorganisms, a scientist warned.

Dr Primrose Freestone, professor of clinical microbiology at the University of Leicester, said faecal bacteria can easily reach your phone in the bathroom.

This includes E. coli, which can result in nasty diarrhea and stomach cramps, and Pseudomonas, which causes infections in the blood and lungs.

Even after you’ve washed your hands with soap, these bugs can travel back to your hands once you touch your phone again.

As a result, phones should be kept out of the toilet altogether, and regularly sanitised with alcohol wipes.

‘The phone will at some point get contaminated, so periodically disinfecting your phone is a good idea,’ she told MailOnline.

It comes after Jackie revealed what started her painkiller addiction.

On Thursday, the presenter was chatting to KIIS FM’s Dr Sam Hay about the nature of addiction and told Kyle & Jackie O listeners she began taking painkillers to help cope with a problem that many women experience.

‘I got addicted because I got prescribed Endone. I was prescribed for a true pain that I was experiencing because I was going to the hospital every month with my endometriosis,’ Jackie began.

Endometriosis is a painful condition affecting many women, where tissue similar to the womb lining grows in other parts of the body, often causing cramps, fatigue and fertility issues.

Jackie added she was prescribed the powerful painkiller Endone – another name for Oxycodone – to help manage the issue but soon became dependent on it.

‘It just got so out of control, I had to go to the hospital to get morphine. And then so they prescribed the Endone as a way to manage it,’ she said.

‘It is dangerous. When they handed me the drug they said, “it’s so addictive. Be really careful.” And it really, really is.

‘I took those pills and thought, “I’ll be fine.” And I realised you’re not fine because they are so addictive.’
