Good Morning Britain’s Kate Garraway was quick to shut down her co-host Ben Shephard – after he was left “really uncomfortable” by his co-star’s confession.
The ITV show returned for another instalment on Friday (February 9) with Kate and Ben back at the helm. The gang were discussing whether or not you should reply to work emails out of office.
It comes as Australia is said to be introducing a new law to stop people from contacting co-workers outside of office hours. However things took an awkward turn when GMB star Charlotte Hawkins made a jaw-dropping confession.

Turning to Ben, she soon shut him down and said “No!” Kate went on: “Sometimes I forget she’s not on shift, I’m very sorry.”
Ben then said: “And the old bum dial as well!” Kate quipped: “Yeah I do that a lot – that’s quite hard if it goes in the back pocket there’s a lot of pressure. I can’t be responsible for what happens.”
