ITV Good Morning Britain fans stunned as horse walks onto set

Good Morning Britain fans were left stunned this morning after a horse appeared on set.

Freedom Zampaladus entered the set on his horse Callie - leaving viewers speechless.

Freedom, nicknamed "The Urban Cowboy" uses horses to help children with behavioural problems, saying they are therapy.

As a 17-year-old Freedom travelled to Antigua and started working for his uncle - who he described as "the scarface of the island"

Freedom became involved in drug dealing and other criminal activity - but also started to look after his uncle's racehorses.

Freedom said: "Went to Antigua and got involved with horses, my uncle was the island's Scarface and his horses were his toys.
