BBC Breakfast hots Jon Kay and Sarah Campbell hailed the return of a familiar face to the show on Wednesday as they introduced a segment on the price of baby formula.
After taking six months out, Nina Warhurst returned to the morning programme after giving birth to her third child in the summer. But the 43-year-old is now back from maternity leave, much to the delight of the presenters and viewers.
Discussing the rising cost in feeding little ones, Jon enthused: “We have the perfect person to investigate this for us because I’m delighted to say that back from maternity leave – it’s Nina – welcome back Nina! It’s lovely to see you.”

Thanking him for the introduction, Nina responded: “It’s lovely to be back. I’ve missed the gang. I’m missing the baby this morning very much, but it’s lovely to be here. Its the best job in the world.”
She continued: “[And I have] the best baby in the world. I know everyone thinks their baby is the best one, but sorry guys – mine actually is.”
Fans soon took to X (formerly Twitter) to welcome her back with one user penning: “Nina Nina Nina. How wonderful to see you back to work. Missed you when you were on mat leave. I hope all is well with you, your baby and all your family.” Another gushed: “Great to see you back to brighten up our mornings Nina. We’ve missed you.”
A third added: “What a surprise seeing you back. Time has just flown since you went on maternity. Hope 1st day back is not too tough.” And a fourth said: “Great to see you back, you are fantastic at your job and it’s a pleasure following your Instagram posts.”
Addressing her comeback, Nina told her 46,000 followers on the platform: “Thanks for your kind messages – super duper to be back with the best news gang @BBCBreakfast. Today – discussing rising costs & pricing regulation of baby milk formula (And gone fully meta with the domestic Big Shop chat).”

After welcoming baby Nancy into the world in July, Nina wrote of the struggle of becoming a new mum on Instagram: “We’ve lost all sense of time as we’ve been feeding and snoozing and gazing and toe-stroking and head-smelling and marvelling at the absolute wonder of it all. It’s been haaaard tho! A harder pregnancy. A tougher delivery and a longer recovery… maybe it’s being older… but also I’d somehow forgotten.
“I’d forgotten the anxiety of labour moving from the plan. I’d forgotten the swollen scars, bleeding breasts, mastitis fever, hormonal crashes, clots, constipation, codeine withdrawal, exhaustion.”
BBC Breakfast airs daily at 6am on BBC One and iPlayer.
