Laura Tobin tells man she's married as he interrupts live GMB broadcast

Good Morning Britain descended into chaos on Wednesday, June 21 as Laura Tobin was interrupted live on air while she broadcast from Stonehenge during the summer solstice. The weather presenter was reporting back to Susanna Reid and Richard Madely in the GMB studio when a passerby offered her a foil blanket to keep her warm.

As Laura's segment started, Susanna told viewers at home: "There are lots of people very interested in Laura's weather forecast. How many new friends have you made this morning Laura?"

"I have made a lot of very interesting friends here this morning," Laura responded, but before she could continue, she said: "Oh, there's a man who has brought a foil blanket to use as a reflector, that's very helpful of you."

Someone from the crowd then appeared on camera with the foil blanket which he placed on Laura and told her: "You said that you are cold after the night. This is recycled from the London Marathon and it does the job."

"Thank you so much, that's really helpful and really kind of you," Laura said while laughing.

But the member of the public continued: "I really like your energy, you’re such a pretty lady, and I just want to be part of the culture, when you see a beauty, this energy, your entourage, like wow, you have a power."

"She's married, leave her alone," Susanna cut in from the studio before Laura added laughing: "Yeah, I am married but that’s very kind of you."

Responding, the fan said: "That's very helpful to know, the very first question, do you have a boyfriend or not? Because if you are taken, it’s okay, yeah sure we can enjoy other vibes."

After asking the man his name, Laura said: "Marvellous, shall I just get on with this and tell people about Stonehenge and the summer solstice?" Turning back to the camera, Laura then said: "Basically the vibe here is very nice, there’s lots of very happy people, lots of energy."

Sharing the interaction on their official Twitter page, GMB wrote: "@Lauratobin1 has made a new friend this morning and it's fair to say he's got a bit of a crush!"
