Good Morning Britain’s Kate Garraway has been waking up the nation for the past two decades.
The TV presenter, 52, joined the southern edition of ITV News Central as a production journalist, reporter and news presenter.
In 1996, she became co-presenter of the South East edition of ITV News Meridian after she was “talent spotted” by a boss who viewed her presenting a three-minute bulletin on ITV Central.
Kate joined GMTV in September 2000, co-presenting GMTV Today with Andrew Castle each Friday, with an extra Thursday slot added down the line.
She became entertainment editor of GMTV’s replacement Daybreak on ITV breakfast in 2010 and later took over from Christine Lampard as the main presenter on an interim basis.

Kate is now a regular on Good Morning Britain alongside pal Ben Shephard.
Former GMTV weather girl and Loose Women host Andrea McLean took to Instagram today to share throwback snaps of herself, Kate and Ben during their GMTV heyday.
Alongside the Instagram post, Andrea, 50, penned: “How can it be twenty years since these pictures were taken of us back in the day at GMTV? It was so great seeing @benshephardofficial and @kategarraway on @gmb today, we don’t often get to meet in a breakfast TV studio any more.
“I rifled around to find pictures of us working together and stumbled over these old publicity shots.

“I think they are from roughly 2000, give or take, but it’s still about twenty years ago, and we are all still going strong – thriving in fact. Here’s to another twenty in showbiz years, I think that’s worth about a hundred.”
Unsurprisingly, Andrea’s latest social media post was flooded with comments from fans of the TV breakfast show.
One of Andrea’s 247,000 followers gushed: “None of you has changed. You still all look fabulous.”
Another added: “All gorgeous then but you have all got better with age.”
