GMB viewers find what they 'weirdly love' about show as Susanna Reid forced to end heated debate

Good Morning Britain viewers appear to have a love/hate relationship with ITV's flagship show.

The early morning news programme had a tumultuous time earlier in the year following the sudden exit of main host Piers Morgan.

Since then, various presenters have stepped in to front the programme alongside Susanna Reid including Adil Ray, Alastair Campbell and Richard Madeley.

But following a heated debate on Tuesday's show, viewers have admitted to finding what they 'weirdly love' about GMB.

Kerry Katona ended up fuming with fellow guest Tessa Hartman during a debate on bikinis for children.

The pair were invited onto the show to discuss the recent outrage surrounding high-street retailer New Look.

The chain was heavily criticised last week for one of its kids' bikinis.

But things soon escalated when Tessa, who stars in the Real Housewives of Jersey, brought up OnlyFans, which Kerry had openly spoken about using.

"But it's OK for your teenage daughter to take the photos, your naked pictures to put on a social media site but you won't let them wear a bikini to cover their modesty?" Tessa argued at one point.

A fuming Kerry then fired: " First of all darling, my children... no.

"My children do not take pictures of me naked and whatever you have read there you are completely wrong. My children take pictures of me in a bikini or in my underwear.

"I am a 40-year-old, darling."

Viewers were divided by the exchange - with many not believing what they were seeing so early on a Wednesday morning.

"What I weirdly love about #GMB - you never known what you're going to get when you turn the TV on in the morning. Today - Kerry Katona screaming blue murder at some calm Jersey housewife who thinks a padded bra doesn't sexualise 9 year-old kids," tweeted one.

Another said: "There are rare occasions where the Gods of morning tv truly bless us with gold like this! Kerry Katona was having none of Tessa Hartmann's sneering nonsense on #GMB - it's just a shame they weren't in the studio together."

"Tessa Hartmann vs Kerry Katona on GMB is everything I needed this morning #GMB @GMB," a third added.

Others, however, didn't agree.

"Why is Kerry katona screaming down the tv at this time of the morning it’s called a discussion #gmb #goodmorningbritain," one tweeted.

Another said: "Sorry but could you not find anyone else to debate this! #GMB."
