OLA JORDAN has revealed she is still suffering from a horrific leg injury sustained while she was competing on The Jump in 2014.

The 34-year-old dancer fell during training for the competition and tore a ligament in her knee.
The injury, which required surgery to fix, meant she had to withdraw from the show completely.
Ola told the Daily Star: “I still haven’t recovered 100 per cent. My leg will never be the same.
"But it’s as good as it can get. I can do pretty much everything in the gym. But there will always be something niggling me in that leg.”
My leg will never be the same
The injury meant that Ola was unable to dance in the Strictly Come Dancing series 12 finale. She later quit the show a year later.
Ola continued: “It was horrible knowing I couldn’t just get up and go to work. It was a really sad time for me. Obviously I’m really physical and really active and I didn’t know how bad my leg was.
"All I could hear was ‘you’ll need 18 months of recovery’. And I needed to get back to Strictly."
The Jump is notorious for being one of the most dangerous reality shows on TV.
This year's series has already claimed two casualties; Sir Bradley Wiggins and Vogue Williams, who was forced to quit before the start.
Last year gymnast Beth Tweddle underwent spinal surgery after crashing into a barrier when landing from a jump.
The Jump continues next Sunday at 7.30pm on Channel 4.
