Why was Ranvir Singh taken off Good Morning Britain?
On March 29, 2022 Ranvir was pulled off Good Morning Britain after Richard Madeley voiced fears over the presenter’s health.
She revealed she was suffering from extreme hay fever – and had woken up with streaming red eyes and a swollen face.
Host Richard told how he feared she “wouldn’t get through” reading the news before she revealed her struggle live on air.
Ranvir had even sought advice from TV doctor Hilary Jones in the studio after ditching her contact lenses and wearing glasses instead.
When Ranvir had finished the news, Richard said: “Hey, credit to you. You’ve got the worst hay fever I think I’ve ever seen.”
Ranvir said: “I don’t know what’s going on. That’s why I look like this today.”
Richard replied: “I thought you were going to have to stop half way through, are you alright?”
Just before being yanked off air, Ranvir tweeted to her followers: “Anyone else got the worst most painful stinging hay-fever they’ve ever had? I can barely keep my eyes open. If there was a vaccine for this I’d sign up asap :(.”
