The star, 40, was wearing a supportive boot and told co-host Alison Hammond she had suffered a bad injury while in Dubai.
Josie, who cryptically shared a snap of herself in A&E this week, had been on holiday with her son Reggie when the drama unfolded.
She explained how she had been cleaning her teeth in their hotel room bathroom when the vanity unit fell off the wall and smashed onto her foot.
Alison had opened the show on her own, telling viewers: “You’re probably wondering, ‘Why is Alison on her own?’
“Josie was meant to be hosting with me today but unfortunately she hasn’t turned up.”
Josie then hobbled into shot, as Alison exclaimed: “What’s going on? You’re on crutches!”
Josie told her: “I had a holiday disaster on the second day.
“I’ve always wanted to go to Dubai with my little boy, so we went to Dubai in half term.
“I was just brushing my teeth when the vanity unit came down on my foot. It cracked over my foot.
“I spent whole holiday in my with leg in air and I was in a wheelchair.”

Josie was whisked to hospital in Dubai and was told she had fractured her foot.
However, after returning home to the UK, she was diagnosed with soft tissue damage.
Josie said the accident ruined the holiday, adding: “I wasn’t even able to make a sandcastle with my little boy.”
Alison told Josie “where there’s a blame, there’s a claim”, before presenting her with a gift.
Josie was handed a tinsel-covered, This Morning branded mobility scooter, which she began riding around the studio.
She then told Alison that travelling by an aeroplane in a wheelchair had been a “nightmare, before praising campaigners who are fighting for it to be made easier for disabled passengers.
Josie’s shock entrance on This Morning comes two days after she shared a photo taken in hospital on social media.
She had snapped a picture of a sign that directed patients to the ‘fracture & orthopaedic’ and ‘trauma assessment’ units.
The Bristolian telly star did not elaborate further on her hospital visit.
