Richard Arnold is happier than ever to be bumping into the likes of Daniel Craig and David Beckham on the red carpet once again since showbiz events are firmly back on his social calendar.
Admitting that the past 20 months have been a challenging time in his line of work, he says there’s now a real sense of “giddiness” when the stars assemble and confesses he loves to see them “skipping along with fist bumps and elbow rubs”.
As we have a catch up with the showbiz expert, 51, over the phone before he goes to have lunch with his mum, he opens up about what the Good Morning Britain newsroom is like without Piers Morgan…
Hi Richard! What’s it like being a part of the Good Morning Britain family?
It’s where you get to meet the people in the news, whether they’re a celebrity or they just have a great story to tell. That’s the joy of GMB. You don’t know whether you’re going to meet the Prime Minister or an Olympian. It’s obvious we all get on because we grill each other so openly on air. There’s nothing said behind each other’s backs because we say it to their faces on air.
What’s it like without Piers Morgan?
