Speaking on the Dig It with Zoe Ball and Jo Whiley podcast, Jo explained her other half Steve Morton ran over Simba yesterday.
“I feel like I haven’t been honest about what’s going on in my life,” she said.
“But I can’t. I just can’t talk about it.
“I was going to, but I’m not going to now.”
Composing herself, Zoe said: “We had a horrible thing happen yesterday.
“We came back from holiday and I got a call from Steve in a complete panic.
“He had come home – it sounds ridiculous to say – but he had run our cat over.
“It’s really sad,” said Jo, as she broke down in tears.
Zoe interjected: “Oh my god, darling. That’s awful. Poor Steve.”
Jo added: “He had driven in really slowly and went to move her out of the way.
“He physically moved her, thought she had gone, then drove in and she hadn’t.
“We just can’t work out what on earth happened. It’s been horrid.
“But you know, it’s another day.”
The comment section was flooded with support from her celeb pals including Fearne Cotton who said: “Love you Jo jo. Losing cats is heart breaking stuff. Im sending you so much love.”
Dermot O’Leary sent a love heart emoji and kiss to his fellow radio presenter.
Jo married her music exc husband Steve in 1991.
The couple have four children together – Coco, India, Jude and Cassius.
