Susanna Reid called Good Morning Britain to a brief pause on Wednesday as she thanked former colleagues including controversial ex host Piers Morgan live on air, on the occasion of her celebrating 20 years in the industry. And her tribute to Piers came two years after he made a tumultuous exit from the ITV show, following a walk out and row with bosses.
Sitting next to Ed Balls for GMB's third show of the week, Susanna had some tweets from viewers read to her by colleague Charlotte Hawkins, as people at home were quick to pass on their congratulations.
Prior to joining the ranks of Good Morning Britain, where she has been for close to a decade now, Susanna was famous for being an anchor on BBC Breakfast, alongside her late friend and co-host Bill Turnbull, who she was quick to pay tribute to. She also singled out ITV colleague and fellow GMB star Ben Shephard for praise, adding: ""Obviously, a massive thanks to Ben, who is not here this morning but we started Good Morning Britain together along with you Charlotte of course and Sean as well."
