She said: "I went for a post-marathon scan on my foot today. I've been following who also ran the London Marathon." Kelly added: "She's all strapped up in a boot, someone stamped on her foot and cracked a bone."

Kelly continued: "My foot looked a bit like hers' so I sent her a picture and she said 'go get an X-ray!' Well, I've walked to three to be told I've got a broken foot. I was like I could have told you that at hospital number one!"

She added: "I cannot believe the ordeal! What time is it now? Four-thirty. I set off at nine o'clock this morning, I'm not joking!" The former contestant suggested in the discussion that she visited several hospitals, including one that didn't have an MRI to assess her apparent injury.

Kelly is quoted as having said: "[Someone] wheeled me out to the road and then just off loaded me and I had to hobble across the road to another hospital who then didn't have an MRI. Oh, it's been a whole ordeal! The only thing they did wheel me to is a cashier so I could pay for it!"

She also said: "It seems that I've got a stress fracture which is quite common with first time marathon runners because we don't know what we're doing. So, I'm in a boot and it looks like I'll be in a boot for six weeks. But I've got a medal!"

Kelly has showcased her medal in a selfie with her husband Jeremy, 39, who also received one after completing the marathon, on social media recently. She's also shared photos of the boot that she's now wearing following the injury.

Speaking about the injury, Kelly also teased on the radio show that she "heard a crack" at one point. She said: "I heard a crack, and I thought I don't know if that is a blister popping or if that is a bone, let's not think about it, let's just keep going!"
