Monday morning on Good Morning Britain took an unexpectedly cheeky turn as a light-hearted conversation about online earnings veered into risqué territory, prompting co-host Susanna Reid to jump in and remind her colleagues that they were, in fact, live on air.
The segment began with a discussion around British canoeist Kurt Adams Rozentals, who recently revealed he earns a six-figure income through OnlyFans, despite facing a competitive ban due to “allegations” tied to his online activity.
Reacting to the athlete’s earnings, co-host Ed Balls quipped, “We are in the wrong jobs!” Guest commentator Andrew Pierce couldn’t resist teasing: “Ed, are you putting yourself forward as a potential model on OnlyFans?”
Laughing, Ed replied, “It’s amazing on the internet what you can make money from.” His amusement continued as he jokingly suggested that there could be a “niche” audience for Andrew. Fellow guest Kevin Maguire chimed in with a wink: “There’ll be a fetish stream!”
Ed added, “Well, Andrew, when you find out how much money he’s making, honestly, you should think about it.” But Andrew was quick to respond, “I thought about it, Ed, the answer is no!” Still, the playful banter didn’t stop there. Andrew jokingly asked, “Are you suggesting we do it together? Are you blushing, Ed?”
As the laughter built, Susanna Reid stepped in to steer the conversation back on course. “This is going in a whole different direction!” she exclaimed, with Kevin echoing, “Blimey!” With impeccable timing, Susanna reminded her co-hosts and guests, “We are still on air, guys!”—eliciting more laughter from the studio and viewers alike, as told to The Mirror.
The OnlyFans chat wasn’t the only moment that left Susanna amused. In a follow-up segment, Ed Balls recounted his participation in a charity swimsuit contest, claiming, “I’ve got to say, I looked really good.” The studio then displayed a photo from the event, catching Susanna off guard. “Has it been censored?” she joked, while Ed added, “Luckily, you’re not showing the bottom half!”
The teasing escalated as Susanna laughed, “Is that an AI mock-up?” and Ed shared that his children had insisted he wear boxer shorts under the mankini because it was “too revealing.” He concluded the memory with a laugh, admitting, “I’d not shaved or anything,” prompting Susanna to joke, “For those who say too early… you’re not wrong,” adding, “It’s going to be the gift that keeps on giving!” The morning may have started with a news brief, but it ended with viewers in stitches.
