"Listen, I don't scare easily you know that. But some of the comments that were coming through on my social media were so horrific.
"And I just thought, this is just insanity. I went back to CBS and I said not only can I not earn a living, but now I have to have 24 hour security because of you. And they go 'like, so what?'"
Asked about Sheryl, who she had co-presented with since 2011, she added: "I sent her three texts of apologies, and she never got back. And then she went on to national TV and said that I hadn't apologised. So what I did was on my social media, I printed the texts, and then she said: "Well, that's not an apology because I wanted it in a phone call." She never called me."

Speaking about the aftermath, she continued: "It was tough for me and it did affect me mentally. It honestly did.
"It ate me up. I must have cried for three months. Never stopped crying."
