Joyce told the publication on Friday the scene was “very embarrassing”.
“I was walking back to my accommodation after Parliament rose at 10pm,” he said.
“While on the phone I sat on the edge of a plant box, fell over, kept talking on the phone, and very animatedly was referring to myself for having fallen over.“
"I got up and walked home.”
In a separate statement, Joyce’s new wife Vikki Campion has told News Ltd that he was talking to her at the time.
She said the expletives weren’t aimed at her.
“No, I think he was calling himself one, he likes to self-flagellate,” Campion said.
