Veteran presenter Kate Garraway was slammed by Good Morning Britain viewers on Thursday for her ‘unwatchable’ habit.

The host, 58, was presenting the show with Richard Madeley, 69, and they discussed several timely topics, including the sale of portable carbon monoxide alarms at UK airports, which begins today.

Also discussed was the rise in so-called ‘sextortion’ cases as well as a halt on the sale of the weight loss drug Mounjaro.

But viewers took to social media to complain that they struggled to follow the news stories because Kate kept interrupting those around her.

They fumed: ‘Kate has interrupted 3 times in 5 mins! Do [something] ITV!’;

‘Seconds after I switch on @GMB what do I get? Kate interrupting Richard! Honestly guys it’s beyond a joke now!’

But viewers have taken to social media in recent days to complain that they have struggled to follow the news stories because Kate keeps interrupting those around her

Similar complaints were made about Kate’s presenting on Sunday, with other viewers writing: ‘Kate can’t stop talking dear lord.’;

‘Maybe she needs to take time out because it isn’t good to watch.’

The claims  come after Richard was also recently criticised by livid viewers for his ‘rude and disrespectful’ treatment of his ITV co-star.

Richard fronted the daytime news programme with his co-host Kate earlier this month, and the pair were joined in the studio by newsreader Marverine Cole.

In a discussion on new police guidance aimed at curbing online misinformation, Marverine was repeatedly interrupted by Richard as she spoke about racial stereotyping.

‘People of non-white backgrounds are [seen as] “troublemakers” whether they are asylum seekers or not,’ Marverine said.

Being spoken over by Richard, she continued: ‘That is a narrative that never was around when I was younger.’

As Marverine tried to expand her point, Richard interrupted, saying: ‘But the more you withhold that information, when it is released or when it leaks out it has much more impact because it’s a rarity.’

Richard continued: ‘If you actually, completely lift the lid on this and are open every single time somebody is accused, arrested or charged.

‘If you’re open about who they are, where they’re from, you reduce the impact of the rare occasions when it leaks or leaks inaccurately.’

Marverine maintained her composure while Richard spoke, before offering her reply.

‘I appreciate that, but it goes hand in hand with a rhetoric which is across the country now which is, “It’s got to be a black person, it’s got to be an asylum seeker who has done this hideous thing, and if it is we’re going to kick off as a nation. If it is a white person then it’s okay”.’

Viewers of the popular show were left furious after footage of the heated debate was aired, and rushed to social media to express their disdain

Viewers of the popular show were left furious after footage of the heated debate was aired, and rushed to social media to express their disdain.

‘Richard Madeley is disgracefully ignorant,’ wrote one. ‘A black woman is talking about her own lived experiences that the effect online misinformation has on her as a black woman and he’s loudly and constantly talking over her. He’s awful.’

Another agreed, saying: ‘Just get rid of Richard Madeley. He’s bad for viewing numbers! A national embarrassment.’

‘I wish Madeley would stop talking over Marverine, so bloody rude,’ a third added.
