    GMB has been forced into chaos with a last-minute presenter switch-up after Susanna Reid was forced to drop out.

    The hit ITV show returned for another instalment on Wednesday (September 6).

    But viewers expecting to see Ed Balls and Susanna Reid were left shocked, as Susanna was nowhere to be seen.

    At the start of the show, it was revealed Susanna had to walk away from presenting – despite coming in to work.

    This was due to her losing her voice following the National Television Awards on Tuesday evening (September 5).

    Instead, fellow GMB star Charlotte Hawkins stepped in to front the long-running morning programme.

    Speaking on GMB from her dressing room Susanna said: “I'm fine, I just can't speak.

    "I don't know what’s happened. I don't know whether it was the heatwave inflaming my vocal chords?

    “It's funny because it was the NTAs last night and when I got in my cab to leave, the driver said 'you're the very first person to leave the NTAs, you're obviously not partying!?'

    "And I don't drink, I don't smoke, so there's absolutely no reason I can understand that I've lost my voice."

    She then issued an apology to viewers while thanking Charlotte for taking the reigns.

    Susanna said: “I'm really sorry, I can only apologise but thank you Charlotte for stepping in I did not to inflict this on our wonderful viewers for three hours."

    It was a jaw-dropping night at the NTAs on Tuesday (September 5) as the nation celebrated the UK's biggest shows and much-loved TV talent.

    A ton of mega stars are stuff their stuff down the red carpet, before sitting down for a glam night out at the London’s O2 – hosted by Joel Dommett.
