The GMA weather anchor posted a sweet photo of her two boys on her Instagram account.
Ginger is spending time with her cousin and her family apparently in a warm location.
Her children are wearing t-shirts in the snap and the family appears to be taking a stroll in a garden enjoying the sunny weather.
Ginger revealed she’ll be out for the rest of the week from GMA as she captioned her post: “Hope you all have a great week – we are enjoying some family time – the boys love my cousin’s baby so much.”
As Ginger is taking time to enjoy her family, her friend Cheryl is filling in on GMA.
Cheryl announced her excitement to be in the spotlight on her Twitter account as she took a photo smiling beside two GMA weather producers.
She captioned the post: “Great morning working with these two amazing weather producers on GMA!
“Will be filling in for Ginger Zee this week.”
Cheryl praised: “Grateful for this opportunity! And so grateful for her and her incredible team for their expertise and guidance making it all look so easy!”
Ginger even gave Cheryl a shout-out on her Instagram Story.
She re-posted a clip from Cheryl’s account and said: “Watch for my friend!”
CALLED OUT
Before stepping away from the camera, Ginger had an on-air blunder last week.
One viewer called out the popular TV meteorologist after she misspoke during a live weather report.
Ginger was informing viewers about the snow and ice that’s set to hit the East Coast in the coming days.
In her report, she accidentally said “College Station” – a city located in Eastern Texas – when she intended to say State College.
State College is located in central Pennsylvania and home to Penn State University.
A viewer noticed Zee accidentally slipped up and called her out about the blunder.
The fan posted on Twitter: “Hi Ginger Zee, it is State College, PA. College Station is in Texas.”
The meteorologist hit back: “I know that well as most of my colleagues went there, if I made a mistake, it was because I had someone talking in my ear quite a lot during that moment.”
CLAPPING BACK
Previously, a fan shared a poster that promoted the TV series Heart of Heroes Zee appears alongside property restoration CEO Sheldon Yellen.
In response, one internet troll cruelly remarked: “She’s looking a little heavier.”
Ginger hit back, responding: “This show is about honoring first responders. Not about weight.”
She has additionally responded to a troll who had accused her of “not speaking correctly” during live broadcasts.
A screenshot of an email that she showed to her followers said: “I know you are an educated person, but I have one thing for you to consider and that is the pronunciation of gerrands (sic).”
