Kirstie Allsopp swallowed an AirPod with her vitamin pills – 19 responses worth popping
Kirstie Allsopp has just gone viral for the most unlikely of reasons after she revealed how she’d accidentally swallowed an AirPod after mistaking it for one of her vitamin pills.
And it caused her indigestion, indigestion, indigestion.
In other news I just swallowed an AirPod while downing my vitamins, I don’t recommend it. I’ve managed to chuck it back up without having to go to hospital, but my throat is really quite sore. 🤮

Lots of people were wondering how the heck that could possibly have happened, like this person.
How on earth 🤣

Fortunately the telly presenter was only too happy to help.
AirPods in pocket, put vitamins in pocket while getting glass of water, chucked vitamins into mouth, gulped water, go for second lot, see one AirPod in hand, check pocket, check handbag. Realise there’s only one place it could be.

It prompted no end of comment, as you might imagine, from people who – like Kirstie – struggled to get their head around it.

I find it depressing that Kirstie Allsop swallowed an Air Pod and yet their noise cancellation didn’t kick in at all.
