‘I’m still full of cold and I can’t sing! I laughed this morning with [daughter] Katie, anyway, just to say I won’t be on the Radio Wales show,’ she began in a clip, between coughs.

“I have not washed my hair yet but I have put on makeup that is hiding a multitude of pains and things… good Saturday,” he added.

‘Not good enough for today’s radio show, sadly…very good for kicking leaves anyway! (You’re c**p Vorderman)’.

‘Happy to air one… I can’t hit a girl for trying. It’s time for a cup of something tasty. Happy Saturday Gang,’ he added in part of his post.

I see. However, I haven’t brushed my hair in four days, so please excuse that. Anyway, thanks for all your lovely messages.

She continued: ‘Sorry I won’t be on This Morning this morning.

I was also looking forward to it. Date hunters! Hey, better be soon. I need a cup of tea.

Before falling ill, Carol showed her support for the Welsh rugby team ahead of their clash against Australia on Saturday.
