Welsh TV presenter Gethin Jones, who hails from Cardiff, admitted he was "jealous" of his Morning Live co-star as she enjoyed amazing views of the Welsh capital from an iconic landmark. Gethin, who was presenting live from the Morning Live studio in Manchester, could only watch as Justine Jones scaled the Principality Stadium.

To celebrate 25 years of the iconic Principality Stadium, which has hosted huge rugby tournaments, Champion's League finals and global music stars like Beyoncé, U2, Coldplay and Madonna, there are now some adrenaline-filled new attractions to enjoy. The new attraction, Scale, includes a 300ft zip wire and a walk around the stadium roof, opens to the public on Monday, April 29. Want less ads?

Justine was sent to enjoy an exclusive look and try out the new activities and Gethin, who is often pictured at the Principality Stadium attending Welsh rugby games, said he was "jealous". He said: "I am a bit jealous this morning, I am not going to lie to you, because this morning Justine Jones is at Cardiff's Principality Stadium, she is not there for the rugby though, she is there for something completely different..."

Justine went on to admit she was "terrified" and asked viewers to "say a little prayer for me".
