Ravir Singh has revealed a traumatic childhood experience during the latest Good Morning Britain broadcast. During Friday’s (September 4) show, Ranvir Singh and Kate Garraway discussed the day’s headlines, including secretly recorded footage of Nigel Farage celebrating foreign donations to Reform UK. The presenting duo also discussed Ranvir’s upcoming appearance on another ITV programme.
This weekend sees various celebrities participate in Gary Lineker’s new ITV game show, The Box, with Ranvir amongst the featured stars. GMB viewers were treated to a preview clip of her participation.The footage revealed the GMB presenter confronting her deep-seated fear of water, as she explained to cameras: “A long time ago, when I was really, really little, I nearly drowned. Since then, I’ve always had a panic response to water if my feet can’t touch the ground.”

The preview showed Ranvir attempting to descend a wall into water alongside another participant, admitting she cannot swim. As she made her way down, she was heard saying, “Oh my god, I’m literally shaking”.
Returning to the studio, Ranvir explained the show involved confronting personal fears, prompting Kate to respond: “I didn’t know you had a fear of water?” Ranvir replied: “Yeah, it’s been there forever. I was about two or three when I jumped into a pool and went under.”
However, audiences must wait until Saturday (September 5) night to find out how successfully Ranvir completed the challenge. Additional famous participants appearing throughout the series include Joey Essex, John Bercow, Jenny Ryan, JB Gill, Danny Aarons, Sara Davies, Graeme Souness, Ellie Taylor and Shakira Khan.

The programme sees the celebrity contestants deposited at a secret location where they must complete a task. They remain unaware of their objective until the doors reveal it to them.\
Tasks range from physical, mental, logical, amusing, somewhat intimidating, or indeed a combination of all those elements. A synopsis for the programme explains: “With minimal or no instruction, they must decipher and work out what to do.
“At the end of each episode, two players will battle it out in The Duel, a high-stakes head-to-head game to avoid elimination. The Box promises shocking reveals, mind-bending puzzles, and plenty of twists across the series.”

Discussing the show, Gary admitted it differs from anything he’s previously undertaken. He said: “It’s different – it’s something I’ve never done before, which appealed to me, alongside the unique nature of the concept.
“It’s fun, it’s family-friendly, and it’s great prime time telly. What’s not to like? ! You make assumptions about how someone will cope based on what you know of them, and then The Box opens and you’re proved completely wrong.”
