A heartwarming moment on Good Morning Britain left presenter Andi Peters fighting back tears live on air during Friday's edition of the ITV breakfast show.
A Life-Changing Phone Call
The emotional incident occurred towards the end of the programme on Friday, December 19. Peters, the show's competition host, was attempting to contact prize winner Andrea Hegarty from Bangor in Northern Ireland. After initial difficulty getting through, the connection was finally established.
Andi then delivered the incredible news to Andrea, revealing she had won a staggering haul of prizes. "You have just won, brace yourself, 35 individual prizes, two cars, and £120,000!" he announced. The winner was immediately overcome, responding with disbelief: "No, oh my goodness! Is this true?"
Winner's Overwhelming Reaction
When asked by Peters how she felt, Andrea could only describe the moment as "Overwhelming!" before offering profuse thanks. The presenter warmly reassured her that the win was completely genuine.
Andrea, struggling to contain her emotions, explained that the money would make a "massive difference" to her life. Peters congratulated her and wished her the best Christmas ever, a sentiment the winner wholeheartedly echoed.
Presenter Moved by the Moment
The genuine and touching exchange clearly affected Andi Peters deeply. After ending the call, the visibly moved presenter admitted, "Oh, she's going to make me upset." He then composed himself to share his feelings about his role.
"Oh my goodness, I love this bit of the job, I genuinely do," he said, sending further congratulations to Andrea and confirming the show would be in touch to arrange her prizes.
The segment was broadcast during an episode presented by Adil Ray and Charlotte Hawkins, with support from Sean Fletcher on news and Laura Tobin providing the weather from Nottingham.
Viewers watching at home were equally touched by the raw emotion of the moment. On social media platform X, one person wrote: "That was lovely. Well done, Andrea. Well done, Andi." Others simply offered their congratulations to the shocked winner, with a third commenting on how emotional she had been.
Good Morning Britain airs every weekday on ITV1 and ITVX from 6am.
