Hi, See if this meaning fits into your context: Foot in mouth: This is used to describe someone who has just said something embarrassing, inappropriate, wrong or stupid. ( SOURCE ) put your foot in it (mainly US put your foot in your mouth ) informal to say something by accident which embarrasses or upsets someone I really put my foot in it with Alison. I had no idea she was divorced.
