Piers Morgan forced off 'Good Morning Britain' after having coronavirus test

Piers Morgan has tested for coronavirus after experiencing mild symptoms of the disease. He will not be back in the studio until the test results come back.

The 55-year-old has revealed he is pulling out of 'Good Morning Britain' after suffering COVID-19 symptoms.

He tweeted: “UPDATE: On medical advice, and out of an abundance of caution for a mild symptom that arose in the past 48hrs, I’ve had a test for Covid-19 and so won’t be working on @GMB until I get the result back, which should be tomorrow.”

It comes three weeks after his co-host, Susanna Reid, self-isolated at her London home when a member of her household developed symptoms of COVID-19.
