ITV's Ben Shephard fires 'stop talking' warning at Kate Garraway live on Good Morning Britain

Ben Shephard attempted to 'asset his authority' over Good Morning Britain co-host Kate Garraway, as he ordered her to 'stop talking' live on air, as cameras rolled on Friday's show. And the outburst from the usually mild mannered presenter, came just a day after he posted an emotional tribute to Kate on Instagram.

Much to the delight of many ITV viewers, Tipping Point star Ben teamed up with Kate for the second day in a row, as the breakfast programme aired its fifth and final episode of a busy week. During the three hour live broadcast, the two anchors got into a discussion about a remark made by contestant Whitney Adebayo on Love Island that she didn't want 'an insecure man.'

Taking that as the springboard for a studio debate, Ben asked people tuning inn from home: Do you agree? Do women prefer a dominant man?” Giving her thoughts, Kate quizzed I guess also, it’s what do we mean by dominant?” before urging viewers to get in touch with the show with their opinions on the matter.
