Susanna Reid leaves fans 'confused' with BBC return after 11 years

Susanna Reid has left fans "confused" with her BBC return after 11 years.

The 54-year-old presenter's career began as a news producer at BBC Radio Bristol, before she transitioned into a reporting role on BBC News 24.

Susanna later secured a presenting position on BBC Breakfast, where she worked alongside Bill Turnbull and Charlie Stayt. In 2010, she left the show to join Sunday Morning Live.

Following appearances on The Andrew Marr Show, Susanna moved to ITV to host Good Morning Britain, which replaced Daybreak.

Susanna currently co-hosts the programme with a rotating line-up of presenters, including Richard Madeley, Ed Balls, and Martin Lewis, reports the Manchester Evening News.

At the weekend, Susanna returned to the BBC after 11 years to participate in a panel discussion on Sunday with Laura Kuenssberg.

Following her appearance, she took to Instagram to post a photo of herself on set, alongside panellists Daniel Kebede and James Harding.

"SUNDAY! Always fantastic to be on @bbclaurak back at the BBC, this morning with @danielkebede and James Harding," the caption read.

Susanna went on to reassure her followers that she'd be back on Good Morning Britain on Monday (July 7), saying, "Back @gmb tomorrow!"

Fans were thrilled to see her return to the BBC Studios, with many expressing their shock in the comments section.

"A nice surprise in the morning!" one person wrote.

Another added: "Nice to see you back on the BBC," while a third said: "Yes I watched it just because you were back."

A fourth fan echoed the sentiment, saying: "I was confused this morning thinking it was Monday already when I saw you. Then realised I had BBC One on and there was no Ed."

The Sunday morning political show delved into voter perspectives a year on from Keir Starmer's Labour triumph in the general election.

Susanna sparked a lively discussion among the audience when she suggested that the Prime Minister might benefit from a stint on I'm a Celebrity to enhance his public image, much like Nigel Farage did with his 2023 reality TV appearance.

A viewer, clearly exasperated by Susanna's comments, vented on X (formerly Twitter): "According to Susanna Reid, Starmer should go to I'm a Celebrity. We are doomed."

Good Morning Britain airs weekdays on ITV1 and ITVX at 6am
