Has Boris Johnson lost an ear (or part of an ear)?

Sorry if this is inappropriate. I just saw a clip of him at the Covid Enquiry today. The way the sides of his hair are brushed downwards is odd - but also it looks as if he has no ear? Sorry I can't post a photo as I'm not well as it is (very heavy cold). Can anyone else who has seen the news see what I mean though?

Ear looks fine to me but this has me wondering if he dyes his hair. Would most 61 year olds not be going grey?

Not this 77 year old!

Boris and Carrie now have 4 dc aged 5 and under, including a young baby. Now I doubt he gets up to do night feeds but at any age, 4 young dc will be exhausting.

Added to that, he now has the prospect of paying school fees and uni costs well into his 80s. Boris and Carrie will have to make decent earnings in the next few years. No quiet retirement for Boris.

I saw that segment and thought BJ looked extremely unhealthy - I’m not sure what is wrong with him, but he looks like he’s going ’off’.

If I thought there was the remotest chance he knows what ironing is I'd guess that maybe someone phoned him whilst he was ironing.

I’m actually killing myself at this, I can visualise the whole thing 🤣🤣

Sixty-one years old. What crap has he put in his body to look that unhealthy.
God, I hate Johnson.

That photo could induce nightmares.

It's just a crease from his pillow, he probably only rolled out of bed half an hour previously, the lazy get.

As an aside, he looks more like a Matt Lucas character than ever.

Matt made a much better Boris.

I agree. Perhaps we should use Matt Lucas to do BJ voice overs. Just like we did with Gerry Adams in the past.

Fun and less offensive to the listener.

He just looks as slovenly and untidy as ever.

He deliberately messes up his hair before appearing on TV.

LambriniBobInIsleworthISeesYa · 21/10/2025 18:14

I can see what you mean @minvee- his ear looks sort of squared off at the bottom, and the skin below on his cheek is red with what looks like a big scratch underneath the ear.

I got a screen shot but it’s not the best quality; I’d say it looked more obvious in motion. Also, you can’t see his other ear to if they’re both weird. Attached also is a picture of him previously- so he did previously have normal ears.

As an aside, he looks more like a Matt Lucas character than ever. Maybe an ex-Prime Minister in Little Britain who just says whenever vaguely chastised at a series of increasingly serious enquiries.

He showed his true colours by getting snappy and stroppy. Don't think he appreciated being questioned by a women.

scalt · 21/10/2025 18:13

He’s the ghost of Margaret Thatcher, in a different wig.

Alternatively, it must be a war wound from when his own heavy mob visited him in hospital, to tell him “you will back lockdowns and mask mandates, whether you want to, or not”. That’s probably what nearly killed him, not Covid.

NebulousSadTimes · 21/10/2025 18:12

I'm just watching him and it was bugging me who he reminds me of.

The Pillsbury Doughboy, gone bad.

He looked a lot heavier and his complexion was a strange colour too. Unless that was just my telly.

goldtrap · 21/10/2025 18:11

Tbf I see what you mean, OP. It looks like a slightly pink scar running up from the base of his jowel jawline to where the ear ought to be. But given he can hear the questions being asked of him, one must assume he has partial hearing at least.

AnAlpacaForChristmasPleaseSanta · 21/10/2025 18:09

SeaAndStars · 21/10/2025 17:36

YABU for to suggest that he has brushed his hair.

He looks exactly like Jesse (This season I have been eating holly) from The Fast Show.

YES! I'm just watching him and it was bugging me who he reminds me of.

Today I will mostly be...lying.

You can see his ears in various recent videos including his ridiculous “I love ai” one.
He’s just an attention seeker, the lack of hair cut, when he pronounces things wrong, all part of his “character”

Prob just the result of years of interbreeding

The side of his neck looks red and it looks as if he has lost an ear, or at least the lower part of an ear. This is why the hair is so long, to cover it.
