Susanna Reid has opened up about her close bond with her former Good Morning Britain co-host Piers Morgan as she revealed he still watches the show.

The TV presenter, 53, had credited the journalist, 59, for making her a 'better and tougher broadcaster' as she explained how they are still personally connected.

Speaking on their friendship during an interview with The Mirror, Susanna said: 'I am still friends with Piers. We were doing a story about potholes last week. I got a text from Piers saying: "You are currently filming in the car park next to my home in Sussex. I can tell you personally what the potholes are like." 

'So he still watches and tells me what he thinks. And, look, we are personally still very connected. He played a massive part in our show's success. I've got a huge amount to thank him for. He made me a better broadcaster. He toughened me up. I didn't just go on air and spar with the guests, I sparred with Piers.'

Piers left the show in 2021 after the presenter and ITV decided to part ways following a row over comments he made about Meghan Markle.

However, Susanna insisted she has no plans to follow her former colleague out of the door and admitted she would stay on the show until they no longer wanted her. 

She said: 'I love it. Honestly, there is no better job in broadcasting. Every day, you turn up at the same time and finish at the same time. But what happens between 6am and 9am is always different. It's so dynamic. You feel like you've had a workout every morning. You can do anything once you've presented Good Morning Britain.'

It comes after Susanna admitted that she was 'worried about Ofcom' an episode of Good Morning Britain in March. The presenter made the comments after making an on-air blunder while doing the news bulletins.

On the show discussion turned to who would be the next James Bond after reports emerged that Aaron Taylor-Johnson is now the front runner for the role.

Susanna them quipped: 'I've seen Kick-Em' - referring to Aaron's appearance in the 2010 film Kick-Ass.
