Good Morning Britain presenter Marvarine Cole began her report with a “breaking news” announcement on Tuesday morning.

Before sharing the breaking news, Richard Madeley told viewers about what was coming up on the show and the guests they would be speaking with.

“Thank you very much indeed,” Richard shared before explaining: “We are going to be speaking live with Emma Webber, that is Barnaby’s mother after 8am. But for now, here is Marvarine with the news.”

As Trisha Goddard and Richard turned to their co-star, Marvarine paused for a moment before she told viewers: “Good morning, we start with some breaking news.”

She continued: “The Metropolitan Police have charged Ioan Pintaru with the attempted murder of an 11-year-old girl, who was stabbed in London’s Leicester Square.

“Authorities have praised security guard Abdullah., whose bravery disarmed the 32-year-old knifeman and the force confirmed the girl’s injuries are not life-threatening.”
