BBC Breakfast’s Charlie Stayt pauses live broadcast as he issues ‘upsetting’ warning

BBC Breakfast’s Charlie Stayt halted the show on Thursday to issue an “upsetting” warning to viewers before a health segment. Charlie and Naga Munchetty were back on the iconic red sofa to deliver the latest news headlines.

Charlie introduced the news segment, stating: “Time now is 6.15am. A woman who spent her life savings of £21,000 to have her vaginal mesh removed in an operation in the US says she could no longer wait for surgery in Northern Ireland.”

Naga added: “And it’s emerged that other women have been waiting years for similar procedures in Belfast, and the Health Trust responsible has apologised to all of those who were waiting and left in pain.”

Before transitioning to the segment, Charlie paused to issue a warning to viewers: “Warning, this report may be upsetting for some viewers. Our health correspondent Mary Louise Connolly has the latest.”

As a video played, reporter Mary shared Slyvia’s heartbreaking story. She narrated: “Sylvia had vaginal mesh implants in 2014 to treat urinary stress incontinence. But last year, she started to have extreme pains, especially when passing urine. One particular episode left her traumatised,” reports the Express.

Sylvia was seen breaking down in tears as she opened up about the distress it had caused her.

“My family was down from Belfast after Christmas…” she began to say before breaking down.

“Sorry. I sat up in my bathroom for, I would say, a good 45 minutes, and when I went to the toilet, the bowl was just full of blood and debris.

“The pain was excruciating, I thought I was going to pass out, and I didn’t want to shout down on my family because I just felt I was a burden.”

After Sylvia showed them the horrifying piece of mesh that had come out of her body, she was warned by healthcare experts that it could be a serious wait to get a doctor’s appointment.

On another note, during the programme, Naga and Charlie welcomed Sir Ed Davey, chief of the Liberal Democrats, who discussed the Government’s proposal to enforce a smoking ban across pub gardens, al fresco dining spots, and sports grounds.

In a different part of the show, they brought Dr. Merav Kliner from the UK Health Security Agency into the limelight, highlighting the urgent call from health authorities for parents in England to catch their kids up on any vaccinations they’ve missed ahead of the new school term.

BBC Breakfast airs daily at 6am on BBC One.
