Susanna Reid has reunited with Piers Morgan on Good Morning Britain after spending two weeks in self-isolation.

The television presenter was back in the studio on Tuesday morning - sitting a safe social distance away from Morgan - after appearing via video link from home over the past two weeks.

“It’s good to be back,” said Reid, before joking that she had a “slightly different” co-presenter back home than Morgan.

‘I had a slightly different co-presenter when I was at home broadcasting from the sofa, and presented with Sookie,” she said, showing a photo of her adorable cat.

“A little quieter than normal proceedings, just sitting on my lap,” she said. “Sorry, I’m not social distancing from the cat.”
