Truth about the romance rumours swirling around Helen Skelton and Gethin Jones: Insiders tell KATIE HIND how their friendship has evolved - and why it could be great news for the BBC


When the BBC began searching for two permanent presenters to host its Morning Live show, they hoped to find the next Richard and Judy.

Instead, for Morning Live’s relaunch in January last year, they threw the dice and came up with lovable Countryfile host Helen Skelton, and Gethin Jones, a safe pair of hands who had intermittently anchored the programme since it had first gone on air in 2020. Three weeks ago, after filming for Morning Live at BBC headquarters in Salford, they were also seen leaving on a motorbike together, heading for breakfast in Manchester city centre. The pair were also pictured appearing very close at the Baftas, and again at a charity ball set up by the sisters of late England rugby league star Rob Burrow, who died of motor neurone disease last year.
