Host Alison Hammond, 48, even called out the singer, 83, for admitting the King's weight had made him reject the opportunity.
The Summer Holiday hitmaker had said, "If I am going to have a photo with him and it's going to be hanging on my refrigerator, he's got to look good.
"So I put it off - and then of course he died."
Alison replied: "Is that why you don't want me at your house? Just joking."
