The news comes after Naga posted some disappointing news to Twitter at the end of last month.

She retweeted a message from Daily Mail journalist Natasha Livingstone which read: "EXCL: In June 2021 campaigner @LucyMazuma w/ @TVNaga01and @caitlinmoran sparked a national debate about coil fittings.

"A year on, I commissioned exclusive research w/ @gettheldown that found women are STILL not being offered pain relief."

The star has always doted on her pets

Last year, Naga spoke out about her experience of having a contraceptive coil fitted, describing it as 'traumatic' and revealing that she had fainted twice from the pain of the procedure.

Speaking on her Radio 5 show, she said: "We all know that coils are safe and effective and lots of women have no problem at all with them but like all medical procedures, there's a vast range of experiences.

"She [my GP] said she couldn't believe I had stuck with it. She said, 'most women just give up when it hurts that much.'"
