Good Morning Britain host Tom Swarbrick, 39, has stepped into the presenting chair this week on the ITV breakfast programme. Usually a regular commentator on This Morning and Lorraine, he made his debut reviewing headlines on GMB in March and on Monday, 25 May, he took on presenting duties alongside Ranvir Singh, while regular presenters Susanna Reid and Ed Balls are on a break during the May half-term.
Viewers have praised Tom's maiden hosting stint and are keen to learn more about his personal life. Away from the spotlight, Tom is married with children but chooses to keep his family private, though he has shared rare updates over the years.
Tom has an eight-year-old daughter and a son who recently celebrated his 10th birthday. The family recently welcomed a Golden Retriever puppy named Olive, as Tom announced on Instagram: 'We got a puppy!!! Welcome to the family, Olive!!' This follows the heartbreaking loss of their cherished pet dog, Islay, in January, which Tom described as 'the kindest, gentlest, most loyal dog who helped us bring up our family.'
Tom seldom discusses his wife publicly, but last year he expressed fury after she was spat at by a stranger while driving. Speaking on This Morning, he recounted how his wife was driving their daughter through a narrow rural lane in Kent when a driver pulled up alongside, swore at her, and spat in her face. Their daughter, then eight, was left terrified.
