Good Morning Britain's Susanna Reid pulls out of Tuesday's show due to family emergency as Ranvir Singh updates fans

The TV presenter was due to host the morning news show alongside regular host Ed Balls, but was quickly replaced by Ranvir Singh. Reid, 53, returned to the show on Monday’s episode following a summer break.

However, confused viewers watched as Singh and Balls took to the famous desk instead. Singh quickly told fans that that her co-star was missing from the show due to a family emergency.

She said: "If you're wondering where Susanna is, one of her boys has been taken ill overnight and she needed to stay with him, so we are here for you this morning." On her return to the show on Monday, Reid told fans that she was looking forward to getting back to the GMB desk. She said: "I love doing my job - the news agenda has been so busy and I have been avidly watching GMB while I have been off. This autumn we have the US Presidential election coming up so that’s going to be huge."

She also revealed that both her and her three sons, Sam, Finn and Jack, spent time this summer in Ibiza, saying: “I have been going for ten years and it was amazing to really enjoy it with my boys now they are old enough to go clubbing. We go to the day clubs together and then I go back to the hotel and they go to the nightclubs!"
