Zoe Ball's Thursday started off like any other day, with the BBC Radio 2 breakfast show host taking the reins and entertaining her loyal listeners. But little did she know, her day was about to take a surprising turn.
As she made her way home after her show, Zoe noticed some commotion on the street. Being the curious and caring person she is, she went to investigate and soon realized that a heavily pregnant woman had fallen over.
"I was thinking, 'Oh my goodness, I hope she's alright'," Zoe shared with her listeners. The woman was understandably shaken and worried about her baby, and Zoe wasted no time in offering her help.
With her son Woody and daughter Nelly at home, Zoe was the only one with a car nearby and she immediately offered to take the woman to the hospital. She also recruited another woman, Jess, to come with them, just in case she needed help with anything.
As they made their way to the hospital, Zoe couldn't help but feel a sense of urgency. "I was thinking, 'I need to run the blue lights on top of the car'," she joked. "I've never been an ambulance before."
The situation became even more tense when they couldn't reach the woman's family or friends. But thankfully, after a long day of waiting, they received the good news that the woman and her baby were doing well.
Zoe couldn't help but feel relieved and happy for the woman, but also empathized with her as she had suffered some fractured ribs during the fall. "Poor love, when you're heavily pregnant, going through labor is going to be painful," Zoe shared with her listeners.
Reflecting on the unexpected events of her day, Zoe concluded, "You just never know where your day's going to go, do you?"
This incident came just a few weeks after Zoe returned to the show after an unexpected hiatus. While some listeners speculated about the reason for her absence, Zoe quickly shut down any rumors, jokingly saying that she didn't go to Turkey for a new face and teeth.
But the real reason for her absence remains unclear. What we do know is that Zoe has been the first female breakfast show host in the network's history since 2019, marking another achievement for the star who was also the first female presenter of Radio 1's Breakfast Show.
As for the pregnant woman, Zoe sent her and her family lots of love and safe happy landings for when she gives birth. And with that, Zoe reminded us that life is full of surprises and we never know where our day will take us.
