"It's nasty. You don't need to say things like that."
She continued: "I've been on the phone to Carol all weekend. It's one thing if you say, 'Look, we've had enough', simply this was dealt with in such an awful way.
"She said with great self-respect, 'Thank you very a great deal; I'm identical sad to leave - wish my colleagues all the best.'"

She went on: "That is the thing [which meant] she said, 'The viewing audience must think I'm awful. Everybody's in recession at the moment and the last thing I want to do is alienate people.'
"She was even contemplating taking this ridiculous fig that they offered her.
"She did not ask for half a 1000000 pounds. She did non ask for more money. It is an absolute untruth."
John Miles, Vorderman's agent, revealed that the 47-year-old had accepted a pay snub of one-third, in job with a 33 per cent budget cut imposed by ITV Productions, only to be told she had 48 hours in which to decide to take or leave a 90 per cent pay cut.
