Heidi Klum opened up and talked to Ellen DeGeneres and the audience of The Ellen DeGeneres Show on having lice and her fight to be rid of them.

Klum appeared on The Ellen DeGeneresShow on Wednesday October 28 where she revealed that she had lice, according to Page Six. She is now lice free but she explained how she got the itchy hair bugs from her daughter.

"My daughter was itching and then she had to go to the nurse and then they looked and sure enough they found a little egg, and I mean they're beyond small, so we had the lice fairies come over to our house," she explained on the talk show. She explained how she has dealt with lice in the past, which is why she knows all about the "lice fairies" and what needs to be done in order to be rid of them.

The talk show host, who refused to hug the former Victoria Secret model, asked her to explain what lice fairies are.

"There are these fairies that come to the house and brush you for hours and get all of these lice out of your hair," she explained.  "You do get a certificate from the lice fairies when you go to the school because the school wants to know." DeGeneres asked Klum if she and her family bathe and why even decided to come on the show with lice. 42-year-old Klum did inform DeGeneres that all was well with the lice, her children and her home now. "I'm actually lice-free now as of a few days ago," she insisted.

Klum is the ex-wife of singer Seal, and is now dating 29-year-old boyfriend Vito Schnabel.  ET Online reported that the two have been together for over one year and have been spotted out together on several special occasions. DeGeneres flashed a photo of the two during the interview and stated that Klum was madly in love, to which Klum responded with just a chuckle.
