Good Morning Britain star Alex Beresford has revealed his lockdown companion after sharing he has split from his wife.
The 39-year-old ITV weather hunk took to his Instagram page last night to post some heartwarming videos alongside his adorable puppy.
On today’s show Alex let viewers know whether the weekend would be sunny as he presented the weather from home via video call.
Hosts Ben Shephard and Ranvir Singh were distracted as Alex had his adorable puppy in his lap.
Ben remarked: “Alex, you’ve got your dog with you as well of course. We love meeting her on your social media channels.”
“What’s the dog called?”, Ben asked.

Alex introduced the beloved pooch to viewers, saying: “So, this is Peaches.
“She’s a couple of years old now. She’s a mix between a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel and a miniature toy Poodle. She’s quite small.”
The weather expert added: “She’s actually had a haircut over the past few days at home.”

He explained to ITV’s mental health podcast ‘Get Britain Talking’: “As we kind of moved into the summer, myself and Natalia decided we were going to part ways.
“I’m not a quitter, and I hate quitting things. We tried to work through things, but at some point you realise the best thing to do for everybody is to walk away, but walking away is never easy.”
GMB star Alex continued: “We were in the same house up until the beginning of this year, knowing that we were parting ways, it takes a while to figure things out. One thing I didn’t want to do is rush things.

“I think by being in that house, knowing we weren’t together, we actually started to get on better. It removed a lot of the stress and expectation that a relationship can bring.
“That was so much to manage, we are only human and have feelings and emotions. As much as I would have said ‘I’m like Teflon’ when I was 25, the important thing is to open up and talk to someone about what you’re going through, so you can meander through the problem and come out the other side.”
Good Morning Britain airs weekdays at 6am on ITV
