Kate Garraway ‘hits back’ as Ben Shephard mocks her over new TV award nomination

thesun.co.uk:

KATE Garraway and Ben Shephard were joshing each other today after she was nominated for a Royal Television Award. Kate, 54, looked embarrassed and moaned "I think you're all being nasty and mocking!" on Good Morning Britain after he opened the show with the news.

Ben, 47, revealed they had "breaking news" and in an overly gushing voice, he said: "I need everybody to be aware, we have some breaking news, and some good news at that. "Because two of the broadcasters on this show have been nominated for awards." The camera panned to Charlotte Hawkins, Dr Amir Khan and Laura Tobin, and it then landed on a cringing Kate.

Ben continued: "Absolutely thrilled to bits that the RTS, which is the Royal Television Society, have nominated – and you’ll be surprised and delighted like we all were – for network presenter of the year.
