However, all was not as it seems, with the product instead being hinge pins for wheelie bin lids.

Chamberlain was able to see the funny side, though, sharing a picture of the product on social media.

She wrote: “Just had a look online for plastic parts bins, you know the things, they store nails and screws in the garage.

“Did a slight recoil at the first offered option… Turns out, they’re wheelie bin lid hinge pins.”

The beloved former Sky Sports presenter often leaves her followers in stitches with her outspoken approach to social media.

She has also hit back at online trolls with brutal responses to their messages.

Chamberlain is best known by football fans for her time hosting Soccer AM.

After starting in 1995, she spent 22 years on the show before leaving in 2017.

During that time, the show built up a cult following and Chamberlain became an instant fan-favourite.

Since her exit, she has stepped out of the spotlight and now lives a quiet life.

When not working on her new passion for farming, though, Chamberlain has returned to presenting for the World Seniors Darts Championship.

A former pub league player, she has claimed to have once beaten Eric Bristow in a game of darts cricket.

Her rumoured relationship with James Wade even saw them dubbed the ‘Posh and Becks’ of the sport.
