Good Morning Britain viewers angered by Ed Balls interrupting Kate Garraway's tragic report

Good Morning Britain viewers expressed frustration on Monday after Ed Balls repeatedly interrupted Kate Garraway as she delivered devastating news about a teenager who died in a Swiss ski resort fire.

Kate Garraway, co-hosting with Ed Balls and Susanna Reid, broke the tragic news about 15-year-old Charlotte Niddam, who lost her life in a bar fire at Crans-Montana on New Year's Day. The teenager was among 40 victims, with 15 of them under 18.

As Kate attempted to deliver the report, Ed Balls interjected multiple times, prompting viewers to vent their anger on social media. One wrote: 'Ed Balls needs to let Kate speak. This is a serious story.' Another said: 'Let Kate finish, Ed! So disrespectful.'
