BBC Breakfast's Naga Munchetty 'bruised and battered' after nasty fall
BBC Breakfast anchor Naga Munchetty is injured after she had a fall whilst out running.
Naga Munchetty has been left "bruised and battered" following a nasty fall while running.
The BBC Breakfast anchor has blood "here and there" and possibly small bits of gravel stuck in her palm after she put her arms out to break the crash to the floor on the rough country lane.
Naga, 51, is quoted by the Daily Mail newspaper's Eden Confidential column as saying: "I fell over running. It was bad, bad, bad - and very annoying. I'll recover, but I'm bruised and battered with a little bit of blood here and there.
"I was running on a very gravelly country lane, and I automatically threw my arms out to cushion the fall. I'm not sure if I have gravel embedded in the skin of my palm - it's not massively deep, but I don't want to stick a pin in to try and dig it out."
Naga vowed never to do the mammoth London Marathon again after she injured her leg on the 26.2-milie course in 2013.
Elsewhere, the broadcaster hates being famous because it brings intense internet trolling - particularly over her appearance.
Naga admitted on a June 2025 episode of the Walking the Dog with Emily Dean podcast: "It's horrible being famous.
"I've got a high profile. But the scrutiny I get anyway, my voice or what I'm wearing, what my hair looks like, my makeup, and if I phrased something a certain way. And that's a journalist doing their job."
Naga gets hacked off when keyboard warriors constantly criticise a celebrity's weight and looks.
She said: "All these film stars who are constantly criticised for their weight and their appearance. And, now, what work have they had done? Should they have had the work done?
"Should they go and get the work done? And it's just, leave them alone! Who wants that?
However, the TV star will not let trolls knock her confidence.
Naga said: "I am smart. I'm sick of women bashing themselves.
"I was asked the other day, 'Which part of your body would you change?'
"And I just went, 'Nothing.' This is the body I've got. And I work really hard to be fit. And I work hard to be able to wear clothes that I like for me.
"And I work hard because I want to be able to get up out of a chair in 30 years' time."
