Good Morning Britain viewers were left surprised as Andi Peters made his latest appearance on the show. The presenter was back on the ITV news programme on Friday (July 29) and in a change to proceedings, he was in the studio.
Andi was live in the ITV building with GMB hosts Ranvir Singh and Ben Shephard for the latest installment of 'Free Cash Friday' which sees Andi call viewers who have entered to win a money prize. All they have to do is answer the phone in three rings.
But it wasn't just viewers who were celebrating their wins today as it also happened to be Andi's birthday. Appearing in the studio today after a whirlwind trip across Europe earlier this week to promote the ITV latest competition, Andi said: "It's Friday, there's free cash, it's my birthday."
Ben then said: "Andi Peters, did you just slip in that it was your birthday?" to which he replied: "I may have mentioned it was my birthday today, but only very briefly," And it wasn't long before Ben was quizzing him on his age.
He said he was 31 before quickly admitting he was actually 52. And GMB viewers were soon taking to social media to share their surprise. @Speedqueenie tweeted: "Andi Peters is 52 today. F I F T Y T W O Wow. #GMB."
@sometimes_angry said: "How is Andi Peters 52? He looks amazing #GMB." A third said: "Andi just doesn't age," while a fourth added: "Andi Peters turning 52 makes me feel like a dinosaur." Another wrote: "Andi Peters is never 52! Happy birthday."
Andi was later surprised with a very special Love Island-themed cake - complete with a figurine of him as a muscly islander and even a revolving heart like seen on the ITV2 dating show. Andi claimed the sweet creation was "extraordinary".
But Ben joked about the white heart at the top, saying it "looked like the tooth he'd lose when he eats the cake".
