A worried Kate replied: “Listen I’m going to give you a warning as your mum Nitya. I want you to come away from that edge. Your reporting is brilliant and vital but we’re concerned about you. We don’t want you to get swept up or anything and I know you’re always cautious and you’ve got people there making sure your safe but come on, move slightly away.” Nitya replied: “Will do Kate, roger that.”
