Explaining how the mishap occurred, Kirstie said: "I put my vitamins in my pocket while getting a glass of water. Got vitamins out pocket, gulped them down…."
The presenter's fans were in disbelief over how she managed to mistake a headphone for a vitamin with some nasty comments in the mix, to which Kirstie replied: "I thought it was funny, in a somewhat dark way. Clearly there are some people who have never done anything daft in their whole lives, and they think it's about IQ."
