Susanna Reid's hectic ITV Good Morning Britain routine including 3am wake-up

Susanna Reid is ready and made up to perfection before most people even rise out of bed each weekday morning.

The ITV Good Morning Britain host brings the nation's biggest headlines to screens as people eat their breakfast. By 6am sharp she is always bright and cheery with a smile finishing her carefully selected outfit of the day.

The Mirror reported that the 52-year-old wakes up at around 3.40am where she gets ready for her busy day ahead. She only gives herself five minutes on her phone before rushing to brush her teeth and put on her coat and get into the car for the studio.

Susanna uses the short moments in the car to catch up with the day's news and brief on the day's interviewees. The star said it is a lot to do and take in during the 25-minute car ride to the London Television Centre.

Speaking to The Sunday Times, she said: "My three boys split their time between myself and my ex. The brilliant thing about my job is that so much of my working day is when they're still sleeping and I'm already at home by the time they're back from school or work."

Thankfully, a professional does her hair and make-up in the studio while she catches up on any work. She usually doesn't have time to eat so she will snack on some apple or sunflower seeds during the ad breaks.

Her working day finished quite early so she usually gets to go home, nap, and then prepare some lunch. By the time her children get home, she makes a tasty homecooked meal for them before getting back to work. She has to debrief about the next day's programme before getting to sleep.

Good Morning Britain airs weekdays at 6am on ITV.
