Richard asked her how her life "hit the wall" to which she responded, "I ended up in the emergency department light night.

"It's such a silly thing and I'm embarrassed to say it but I dislocated my toe," she said.

Richard winced and responded, "Yowza! How'd you do that?"

Rebecca then described it as "one of the most painful things to ever do", but it's something she's done many a time before.

"I was walking down the hallway and just caught it on the corner of the door, and I've done it many times before," she said.

Adding, "Usually I pull it back into [place] but this time I couldn't get it back in."

She later said that the last time her toe dislocated she was 35 weeks pregnant and couldn't get it back in place herself as she couldn't reach it properly.

Rebecca revealed that she and her husband got their toddler in the car and raced to the hospital where things took a little longer to get going due to the coronavirus pandemic.

She joked that she was "carrying on like a pork chop" due to the intense pain, but was later given medication to help ease it.

When Richard asked how her toe was doing, she lifted up her leg, revealing she was wearing an ugg boot, which was the only shoe she could get her foot into.

Now, because it's happened so many times, the next step may be surgery to fix the presenter's toe.
