Good Morning Britain fans were thrilled to see Ed Balls back on their screens this Monday after he disappeared from the show for a week. The 58-year-old host took a moment at the start of the episode to explain why he’d been away. His co-host Susanna Reid was quick to point out his healthy glow, teasing: “Somebody got some warm weather over the weekend!”
Ed laughed and replied: “They did! It looks like I’ve been on some exotic beach.” But as The Mirror reported, he confessed the reality was a bit closer to home. “Actually, to be honest, it was the Isle of Wight, Portsmouth, and Poole. I was on a sailing boat last week, and it was very sunny, it turned out. I think all the rays were reflecting off the water”, reported the Express.
