Why is Piers Morgan not on GMB this morning?

Piers is off today (February 19, 2021) and the rest of the week.

The host is taking the week off as it is the school half term.

His co-host, mum of three Susanna Reid, has also taken the week off work.

The pair of them have young children and like to spend the school holidays with them.

Many viewers were missing the controversial presenter after he shared tweets criticising Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's baby announcements.

But when one of his followers said it was going to make the ITV show "unbearable", Piers confirmed: "Relax Janine, I’m off for a week."
