Alex Beresford was supported by fans as he presented Good Morning Britain.
Hosting the morning show alongside Kate Garraway, the pair were discussing the latest headlines.
Last week, Alex returned to GMB to present the weather after his heated debate with Piers Morgan.

Mr Morgan, 55, left his job on the ITV current affairs programme following a row over comments he made about the Duchess of Sussex.
But today, Alex was back as the main GMB presenter as Susanna Reid and Ben Shephard took a day off.
In a fun segment, Alex showed off his impressive hula-hooping skills.
But as GMB posted the clip on their Twitter account, a number of cruel comments were made.
However, fans were there to hit back at the trolls.
Jay tweeted: "I have read lots of unkind comments about Alex Beresford this morning. Some individuals saying bring back Piers. The British public should have more serious issues to be dealing with..."
Shaz said: "I saw Alex Beresford was trending on Twitter and wondered why. Every single one of these ‘critics’ is a fake account or bot."
Mapaseka tweeted: "I’ve said it once and I’ll say it again, good morning to Alex Beresford and Alex Beresford only."
A fourth wrote: "Wishing Alex Beresford all the best! He is great as a main GMB presenter!"
And Mel tweeted: "Why is everyone hating Alex? I love him!"
