Kate Garraway shares daughter's cheeky response to 17th birthday gift

Kate Garraway's daughter had a quite cheeky response to her mum over her birthday gift as she turns 17. The Good Morning Britain presenter gave a shout-out to her 'baby' on her special day while appearing on the show on Friday, March 10.

Kate was back presenting alongside Ben Shephard and, after discussing some of the latest news headlines, including reaction to reports that former Prime Minister Boris Johnson has put his father, Stanley, forward for a Knighthood. It was then that the TV and radio star turned attentions to her own family, Manchester Evening News reports.

"It's my baby daughter's 17th birthday," Kate said to a cue of 'awws' from Ben and their guests. "Her present was supposed to be driving lessons which I've found quite hard to lock down. There's a lot of delays and hard to get hold of it," the mum-of-two went on the explain.

"So I did suggest to her last night, 'Darcey, if it comes to it, I might have to teach you how to drive,'" Kate added to gasps from those around her. Iain Dale said: "No, no. It's madness." Kate then revealed: "Well her response was, 'Mum, someone in this family needs to know how to park!'"

"So that's what happens... she's certainly not going to be putting my forward for the honours list," Kate added as Ben joked: "She's so, so wise in so many ways. Happy Birthday, Darcey." Kate then added: "Happy birthday darling, and get to school just because you're 17!"
