Susanna Reid REPLACED on Good Morning Britain as it returns for Sunday show
SUSANNA Reid will not return to Good Morning Britain to host its Sunday show.
The presenter has led the coverage on the Queen’s death for ITV’s breakfast programme all week.
But she’s being replaced by Kate Garraway who will front the special show ahead of Her Royal Majesty’s funeral.
She’ll be joined alongside Adil Ray who usually presents with Susanna.
Good Morning Britain was originally scheduled to air for just under an hour at the much later than usual time of 9.30am on Sunday.
But schedule changes announced today show it will be business as usual for the breakfast programme, kicking off at 6am and ending at a later time of 9.30am.

Normal service is expected to resume next week, with Susanna returning alongside guest hosts.
ITV has already aired a historic Saturday edition which left some viewers confused about what day it was.
The Sunday show will be followed by Love Your Weekend With Alan Titchmarsh.
EFL Highlights follow at 1125, before the ITV News and Weather at 1320.
