Charlotte Hawkins has revealed that she had to be checked over for a 'suspected blood clot' this week.
The 46-year-old TV presenter spoke openly about her recovery from Covid during Friday's Good Morning Britain.
When hosts Kate Garraway and Ben Shephard asked her how she was feeling, Charlotte admitted that she is exhausted.
"I mean I was obviously really grateful that I had just mild symptoms," Charlotte explained.
"I had extreme tiredness at the time and cold-like symptoms. Coming back to work on Monday, I felt okay and then just absolute exhaustion hit me and that's kind of how I've felt all week this week and that sort of really wobbly feeling, the brain fog."
She continued: "Yesterday I had a situation with my leg that went completely numb and I had a pain, I rang the doctors and I had to get it checked for a suspected blood clot."
"But it wasn't?" Ben interjected, as Charlotte replied: "It wasn't luckily, which I'm very grateful for. I sort of assumed because I'd been lucky enough to have it mildly, that I would emerge from this and think everything would get better."
When Ben commented that they all usually feel very tired when they finish work on Good Morning Britain, she added: "It's absolutely exhaustion, I've just gotta come straight back home and go to bed, I can't do anything.
"They're still trying to understand what the after effects of Covid are."
During the chat, viewers were left frustrated as they accused Kate of speaking over Charlotte.
One person tweeted: "I adore Kate and I appreciated #covid is a sensitive subject for her to cover but she needs to stop talking over people, the chat with Charlotte was cringe. #GMB."
Another posted: "Kate can't help herself let Charlotte speak. #gmb."
Kate knows more than anyone how the long-term effects of Covid can affect someone as her husband Derek Draper was in hospital for the majority of 2020 due to the virus.
Good Morning Britain airs weekdays at 6am on ITV.
