ITV’s Susanna Reid absent from Good Morning Britain as presenter ‘takes a break’

Published on

Good Morning Britain (GMB) viewers will have noticed that Susanna Reid isn’t hosting the ITV programme this morning (March 30).

Susanna usually presents the breakfast time show alongside the likes of Ed Balls and Richard Madeley at the beginning of the week.

However, today she has been replaced by Kate Garraway, who is fronting Monday’s GMB alongside Paul Brand.

It comes as last week, Susanna revealed she will be “taking a break” from the ITV programme until April 13, as she thanked the “incredible” fans.

Why isn’t Susanna Reid on GMB today?

On Friday (March 27), the 55-year-old shared a picture on Instagram posing in a blue and white dress, before her last GMB appearance for the next two weeks.

She captioned the post: “LOVE IT! I am just hopping off for my Easter break – back on Monday 13th April.

“THANK YOU to all our incredible viewers and guests after another HUGE programme yesterday – with increases in viewers and share of viewing year on year.

“We love what we do and we love that even more of you love it too!”

One viewer replied in the comments: “Have a great holiday.”

Another wrote: “Have a lovely Easter break!”

Along with guests such as Kwasi Kwarteng, Kate and Paul are discussing today’s news headlines until 10am, such as the “deadly risks” of corridor care and hospital overcrowding in England, as well as fuel shortage concerns.

Another major story making headlines on GMB this morning is about a guest at a Travelodge who was sexually assaulted by a man, who had been given a key card to her room by the hotel’s reception.

Plus, Kate told viewers she has found frog spawn in her garden pond and was looking for advice on how to care for them, including joking about “bottle feeding them if I could”.
