Good Morning Britain presenter Susanna Reid was left emotional on Wednesday morning as a special milestone was marked on the show. Co-host Ed Balls congratulated her on 20 years as a journalist and presenter to cheers in the studio.
Susanna began her career with the BBC before making the move to ITV in 2014. Wednesday's show included a special thank you to the presenter, with a montage of her best moments from her time on both channels, reports the Liverpool ECHO.
Susanna said: "Thanks to everybody else who's been involved on the journey along the way and to all the individuals that have sat next to me because you don't do this alone in British television so it's fantastic to have you here. Obviously, it's very emotional to see Bill [Turnbill] because we've lost him and that remains very painful because he taught me everything I know about presenting. But there are some wonderful characters that I've presented with who are fantastic... working alongside Ben [Shepherd] and Charlie [Stayt], and then Piers [Morgan]..."
She went on to praise her former co-stars, making specific reference to Piers and his unwavering belief that former President Donald Trump would win the 2016 election. Ed Balls asked what her own shining moment on the panel was to which she admitted confronting the former Prime Minister, Boris Johnson.
She added: "Without a doubt. The question that I asked him to kick off the interview live at Downing Street last year, a couple of months before he was forced to resign, 'Are you honest, Prime Minister?' and that is the question which is at the heart of today's Privileges Committee meeting."
Susanna was congratulated by the guests and presenters as she thanked everyone for their kind words.
