ITV Good Morning Britain star called out by co-stars as she makes 'worrying' confession
Good Morning Britain's Charlotte Hawkins left her colleagues in a tizz with a 'worrying' admission ahead of the National Television Awards on Wednesday night.
Hosted by comedian Joel Dommett, the NTAs honour the stars and creators of television, with many popular shows in the running for accolades. During the Wednesday edition of GMB, Charlotte, 49, confessed she had yet to decide on her outfit for the glitzy event.
Colleague Susanna Reid couldn't resist sharing the scoop, teasing: "I've got breaking news for you... Richard Arnold's been getting ready, Charlotte doesn't know yet what she's going to wear!" This prompted Charlotte to respond with concern: "A little bit worrying!"

It comes as fellow GMB presenter Kate Garraway has received a nomination at the NTAs for her documentary Kate Garraway: Derek's Story, chronicling the health challenges faced by her husband Derek over recent years. Tragically, Derek passed away earlier this year after experiencing multiple coronavirus complications.
Kate offered a poignant explanation on why she had been silent about her NTA nomination during a recent episode of GMB. She said: "I haven't posted I've been nominated yet because I got so much backlash from doing it, for people saying 'stop going on about it'. But actually, I realise I'm letting people down", reports the Mirror.
Derek tragically passed away in January 2024, almost four years after falling ill. Following his death, Kate took a break to be with her family before returning to Good Morning Britain. She confessed that making the documentary was challenging but felt it was her duty to help others receive more support.
"One of the biggest frustrations was that he felt like a total failure, he felt like an incredible burden on the carers, on the system, on us and it didn't matter what we said, he felt that burden, and he wanted to be a contributor," she expressed.
"Making this documentary was his way of saying 'I'm gonna speak up for the people that have supported me, the family but also those around me and the people within the care system.'" She continued: "It's wonderful to have the chance to honour him and also honour the millions. I'm sad because I don't have the chance to care anymore but I felt it would be wrong for me to sort of walk away from the caring campaign that I feel I have a responsibility for."
Good Morning Britain airs from 6am on weekdays on ITV1
