The television presenter, 52, called the Chris Evans breakfast show to insist she broke her nose in a fall and deny "stupid rumours" that she had cosmetic surgery.
The Loose Women presenter criticised Twitter users who suggested she had fabricated her fall down some stairs in “four-inch high black ankle boots with a one-inch platform”.
The Cambridge graduate, who previously presented Countdown, left a meeting in central London on Thursday when she decided to take the stairs instead of the lift.
Feeling cold, she put her hands in her pockets but “four steps from the landing” she slipped in her hurry and hit the wall “with full force”, she wrote in today’s Daily Telegraph.

22 Jun 2012The host of ITV’s Food Glorious Food was taken to hospital by her boyfriend, ex-Red Arrows stunt pilot Graham Duff, and she had an operation to reset her nose.
She was ordered to rest at home in Bristol after the accident, which she admitted has left her feeling “a complete idiot” and cuts to her forehead and an eyelid that needed stitches.
She has also been forced to cancel TV appearances for the next few weeks.
Today, she was forced to issue legal letters to newspapers denying the “false” allegations that had circulated on the social networking site that she had received a “nose job”.
She also phoned Evans' BBC Radio 2 breakfast show to attack her critics and posted pictures of her nose on Twitter.
She told the host: “I sent out some photos after it happened just because there were some stupid rumours going round.
“You’ll see how the nose was bent immediately afterwards, so that’s proof there.
“I knew I’d broken my nose as soon as I hit it, so obviously I screamed. There was blood everywhere.”
After her call she also posted pictures of her injuries of her nose on her Twitter account – taken an hour after her fall – in a bid to quell the allegations.
