Morning Live presenter Gethin Jones has admitted that he was close to quitting TV before the BBC show launched in October 2020. The 45-year-old, who was born in Cardiff, gave an exclusive interview to WalesOnline ahead of hosting the Child of Wales awards in the Welsh capital on Friday, March 24.
Speaking about Morning Live, Gethin said: “I actually love the show. I was going to quit telly and I went back to uni and did a Masters. I was done and happy to sort of go on with the next chapter and then this show came along that I’ve fallen in love with.
“I’ve never been involved in a show that is so interactive with our viewers. I mean that in the respect of not just saying, ‘Hey good show’, I mean that viewers say, ‘What about this? Have you considered that?’ We cover so much in 45 minutes and people have really jumped onto it and I feel very lucky to go to work everyday on it.” For more showbiz and television stories get our newsletter here.
