GMB fans point out Ranvir Singh's 'ironic' outfit choice as she steps in with Susanna Reid

Good Morning Britain fans noticed something familiar about Ranvir Singh's outfit today.

The TV presenter stepped in to host the ITV news show alongside Susanna Reid following Piers Morgan's dramatic exit on Tuesday.

The controversial presenter and journalist has left GMB after tens of thousands of people complained to Ofcom over comments he made about Meghan Markle.

Piers, 55, has spoken out about his abrupt exit - which he said was amicable - and said: "He said: "I had a good chat with ITV and we agreed to disagree."

He also doubled down on his views over Meghan and Prince Harry's interview with US chat show host Oprah.

This meant that Tuesday was Piers' last appearance on the show - which he fronted for five years - and Ranvir was brought in at the last minute to co-host with Susanna.

But fans felt that Ranvir made an 'ironic' choice when it came to her dress for the show, which is similar to that worn by the Duchess of Sussex.

Meghan wore a £300 black and white wrap around dress as she sat down with Oprah for the explosive interview.

And on Wednesday morning, viewers suggested Strictly star Ranvir used Meghan as her fashion inspiration.

"@ranvir01 wearing a dress not too dissimilar to Meghan Markle’s in the wake of @piersmorgan’s “resignation” on @GMB has got to be one of the most ironic as well as iconic things on TV #GMB," one viewer tweeted.

Another offered: "#GMB is Ranvir wearing that Dress to look like Meghan's from the Interview."

"Just noticed Ranvir wearing a very similar dress to Meghan Markle in her Oprah interview, sign of support for her maybe," a third suggested.

A fourth added: "A brighter start to this morning anyone notice “the dress”? Nice one Ranvir Touché! Bye Piers."

"@GMB Ranvir’s dress was an inspired choice..." another said.
