Good Morning Britain presenter Susanna Reid brought the morning show to a halt as she issued an emotional tribute to her former ITV co-star. On Monday (July 13), the broadcaster returned to the airwaves alongside Ed Balls to deliver the latest news making headlines. But minutes into the show, the 55-year-old news anchor paid a touching tribute to the late TV presenter Dermot Murnaghan.
The 68-year-old lead anchor “died peacefully” at his home in North London on Saturday morning (July 11) “following a period of illness with prostate cancer”, his family declared in a statement. Reflecting on the sad news, Susanna began: “Before we move on, I’d like to discuss the passing of Dermot Murnaghan this weekend.
“He sadly passed away from prostate cancer just one year after he received the diagnosis. I interviewed him at the end of last year, and his message was to get more people to get checked out because it could have saved his life.”
