Good Morning Britain's Kate Garraway pays 'silent' but poignant tribute to the Queen

Kate Garraway paid a 'silent' but very noticeable tribute to Queen Elizabeth II as she hosted Good Morning Britain on Friday.

Kate has been a frequent presence on screen in the week since Her Majesty's death at the age of 96 on Thursday, September 8. As the ITV show broke with tradition and aired across last weekend, Kate appeared live from outside Buckingham Palace at the start of Saturday's live broadcast, to reflect on King Charles III's first address to the nation a night earlier, before being in the studio on Sunday as the Queen's coffin began its journey home from Balmoral, with a journey across Scotland to Edinburgh.

Kate was back in the studio on Friday alongside GMB colleague Ben Shephard and it didn't take long for viewers at home to clock that she was wearing a set of pearls to accessorise her black outfit in a clear nod to Her Majesty's love of the jewellery. During her remarkable reign, Queen Elizabeth was rarely seen without her favourite three strand pearl necklace, a gift from her late father, King George VI, who passed away in 1952.
