In the message, that was recorded from her bed, she explained: "Hey, I thought I should give a bit of an explanation about my foot, I was out walking the dog yesterday and I thought I'd run down these steps. I think I must have tripped on a root or something, and oh my god it hurts so much. I sort of twisted my foot, anyway I can't flex it upwards!" Ouch!

Davina has always been into fitness and is the star of many workout DVDs, and earlier this month she unveiled a new health change that she was making.

Donning workout gear and rocking a radiant makeup-free look, Davina told fans: "I have made myself a commitment. From 1 November I'm going to cut out refined sugar, fruit and honey for the first couple of weeks to try and get myself off sugar again. I've massively fallen off the sugar-free wagon and it's ugly."
