Steph McGovern, 39, has revealed that she called the fire brigade for help after she suffered a painful injury earlier today. The presenter of Channel 4’s Steph’s Packed Lunch previously took to Instagram stories to issue a plea for advice to her followers, after sporting a swollen and bruised finger after catching it in a door. But after multiple attempts to remove a ring which had become stuck due to the swollen joint, Steph resorted to calling in professional help.
Posting snaps of her injury, Steph initially asked her 44,000 followers for advice.
She wrote: “Trapped my hand in a door… my ring took the brunt of the pressure but now the ring is squashed and my finger has swollen.
“How do I get the ring off?
The TV presenter shared a snap of the injury to her right hand, which saw swelling on the lower part of her finger just above a silver ring.
