“I have dealt with incontinence, and it is deeply unsexy, let’s face it,” she said.

“When you think about all the things you share and women, and the things I tell Mark [her husband] - I really didn’t want to tell him that.”

She continued: “Do you remember when we were doing the trampolining on here? Well, I wet myself live on air.

“I just thought that was going to be my life now. Sometimes there can be weeks where it’s much worse than others.”

She added: “Because it’s such a taboo, it’s so important that as women, we do talk about it because you don’t have to accept it. There are so many things you can do.”
