«I truly believe she was consciously knowledgeable about how she was helping me.» During the interview, Susanna was happily distracted by Inka sitting by her on the sofa while playing with her.
She petted and laughed as the dog licked her face while James discussed how Ella helped him when he was struggling with his mental health.
«I’ve barely listened to a word you have said,» Susanna soon admitted. «I am in the moment with Inka, that unfortunately means that I’m not in the moment with anyone else.»
James and Ed laughed at her comment before going on to discuss the benefits of having dogs as pets.
Kate’s brother added: «Dogs improve prod in the workplace so I think if you can’t have a dog in the workplace you should be encouraged to bring it because they do improve, increase productivity,» before adding: «Although they are a distraction.»
Meanwhile, Good Morning Britain fans were recently thrilled after a slight shake-up in the presenting team. Typically, ITV viewers are served the latest news by Susanna Reid and one of her regular male co-hosts, either Ed Balls or Richard Madeley.
However, on Bank Holiday Monday, audiences tuned in to see Ranvir Singh and Robert Rinder at the helm. While the hosting pair received mixed reviews, it was the change in weather presenter that really delighted viewers.
Stepping in for usual weather expert, Laura Tobin, was Des Coleman. Des has been a stand-in on Good Morning Britain over the years and viewers were chuffed with the change.
Taking to X (formerly Twitter), one person remarked: «We like Des and he should always fill in for Laura when she’s away doing whatever she does. Always a pleasure to see him.»
Another penned: «Love Des so cheerful.» In praise of Des, someone else shared «And that people is how the weather should be presented.»
