Ben Shephard's final day on Good Morning Britain revealed ahead of his move to This Morning as 'on-screen wife' Kate Garraway says 'we are losing him'


The broadcaster, 49, was unveiled as the ITV show's new host alongside Cat Deeley, 47, after much speculation on Friday.

The Tipping Point host said no longer presenting alongside pal Kate was the 'hardest decision' ahead of agreeing to take on the role of Phillip Schofield's replacement. The telly favourite, who has hosted GMB since 2014, also revealed that the adjoining studios would make it easy for him to call in for a catch up. Touching on her recent loss of beloved husband Derek Draper Ben continued: 'Her journey has been well documented, and I think we would all agree how remarkable she has been over the last four years'.
