However, Sally appeared to sound hoarse as she read the news, leading fans to worry for her.

The 51-year-old posted a behind-the-scenes snap of a coffee and a Lemsip as she revealed to BBC Breakfast viewers she was indeed poorly.

But while Sally was a trooper and still turned up for work, some fans thought she should've stayed at home.

Taking to X, formerly Twitter, one viewer posted: "Why has dreary Sally turned up at work with a stinking cold? Or is it Covid?"

A second wrote: "Well done for soldiering on today! I believe we may have the same cold!"

"Shoutout to Sally Nugent who presented BBC Breakfast full of a cold! Proper trooper, go Sal," said a third.

While a fourth commented: "How ill does Sally sound this morning, I think she needs a Lemsip and to go home to rest."

Despite being under the weather, Sally looked absolutely flawless on set as she stunned in a pink suit.

The mum-of-one completed her look with a pair of cream high heels.

BBC Breakfast airs daily from 6am on BBC One and iPlayer.
